Skip if , different Travelers Anyone who needs an adjustable angle Buyers who want a lighter keyboard Hot-swap or RGB fans Wireless users Buyers who want the most features for the money (Eurogamer)
Pros , different 2.4 GHz, Bluetooth and wired modes with a number pad WePC found the double-gasket design very effective at muffling noise Top-notch build quality and QMK/VIA compatibility (TechRadar) Switches layouts between Windows and macOS (TechRadar), with extra keycaps for both Great battery life, Keychron rates up to 180 hours (WePC) Side-printed keycap option available (WePC) Double-shot PBT keycaps with legends that will not wear off (Diatec, Eurogamer) Cherry MX Brown, Blue, Red or Silent Red at purchase (Diatec) Full N-key rollover over USB, an upgrade over the Majestouch 2 (Eurogamer) Media controls on the function row (Eurogamer) Factory-lubed Costar stabilizers that work well (Eurogamer) Heavy, rigid build at 1.2 kg (Diatec); Eurogamer weighed 1.4 kg
Cons , different Extreme weight makes it hard to carry (TechRadar, GameRevolution) No typing angle or height adjustment (TechRadar, WePC) No wrist rest included (TechRadar) Stiff connectivity switch (TechRadar) Tom's Guide's spec table lists 90 Hz over wireless for the Max, so use the cable for the 1000 Hz rate No hot-swap, so switches are fixed at purchase (Eurogamer) No RGB, software, macros or wireless (Eurogamer) Eurogamer heard some ping on the space bar if pressed harder Eurogamer thought it expensive for the modest upgrades over the Majestouch 2 Cherry MX Brown switches can feel slightly scratchy before they break in (Eurogamer)
Research take , different A top-rated full-size mechanical board. Everyone who reviewed it agreed on strong build and sound, and flagged weight and fixed height. A dependable typist's full-size that Eurogamer liked to use but found hard to justify on value. Pick it for the build and PBT keycaps; look elsewhere for hot-swap, wireless or lighting.
