| Pros , different | Alice layout with a function row and knob in a wireless gasket-mount board Tri-mode: 2.4GHz and wired at 1000Hz, Bluetooth 5.1 958 g (Keychron's figure), much lighter than the wired V10 Keychron rates the 4000 mAh battery at up to 190 hours with the backlight off QMK with the Launcher web app, hot-swap sockets and screw-in stabilizers | 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 |
| Cons , different | Evidence is thin: no full independent review was found Alice split requires adaptation (MacGeneration) Bluetooth polling is 90Hz, per Keychron's spec table Max-series double-press and chatter reports led to a Keychron statement in July 2025 (TechPowerUp) Keycaps are not shine-through | 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 |
| Research take , different | The larger wireless Alice board in Keychron's V line. Independent coverage is partial, so lean on the V8 Max and V10 reviews, and buy from a recent batch with a good return window. | A capable wireless Alice 75% on paper, with thin independent coverage. Treat sound and feel as inferred from the Q10 and other Max reviews. |
