Cons , different Maker's page lists no weight, battery or dimensions No dongle Plastic case and a tray mount (maker) Banana switches are noticeably clicky (AppleInsider) Review dates from 2024, so details may have changed since No adjustable feet; the angle is fixed at 5.2 degrees (AppleInsider) Wirecutter criticises the tall keycaps and the steep, non-adjustable case slope Keychron's 1000 Hz rating applies to 2.4 GHz and wired; the sibling Q1 HE drops to 90 Hz on Bluetooth (Tom's Guide) Heavy at about 1.7 kg, so not a portable 75% Wirecutter notes it costs more than its own upgrade pick, and AppleInsider's headline calls it costly
Research take , different A sound mid-range full-size for QMK/VIA users. AppleInsider liked it. The most complete mechanical 75% in the Q line: reviewers praised the build, the sound and the 2.4 GHz option. The tall caps and fixed slope are the recurring complaints, so a wrist rest is worth budgeting for.
