Good for , different Alice fans who want wireless with a function row Macro users Desks where a dongle is acceptable Long-session typists who want an ergonomic full-size board People who want a conventional numpad position with Alice Users who want wireless and mechanical switches
Skip if , different Anyone who wants a true ergonomic split Travelers Buyers who want detailed independent reviews Anyone on a tight budget Travelers People who dislike new layouts
Pros , different 2.4 GHz at 1000 Hz, Bluetooth and wired modes in an Alice layout Programmable M keys, easy to set up (The Gadgeteer) CNC aluminum body, PC plate and gasket mount Battery rated up to 180 hours (Keychron) Full function row and knob Alice layout that Tom's Guide says relieves wrist strain 2.4 GHz, Bluetooth and wired modes Premium construction and stellar typing experience (Tom's Guide) Double gasket and silicone layers reduce metallic pings (Tom's Guide) QMK-enabled with RGB lighting
Cons , different Heavy at about 2.1 kg Layout quirks carry over from the Q10 (The Verge on the Q10) Fixed typing angle Only one light independent write-up found Alice keycap compatibility is limited Expensive (Tom's Guide) Very heavy at about 5.3 lb (Tom's Guide) Not a travel board; Tom's Guide says it is not one you can take traveling Tom's Guide reviewed it jointly with the Q14 Max, so notes are shared
Research take , different A capable wireless Alice 75% on paper, with thin independent coverage. Treat sound and feel as inferred from the Q10 and other Max reviews. A well-reviewed ergonomic full-size board. The weight and price are the downsides Tom's Guide flags.
