Woot! (owned by Amazon) is offering some huge discounts on Keychron's Q-series Keyboards. These are brand new, unused units with a full 1 year manufacturer's warranty. These top-of-the-line mechanical keyboards usually retail for $180 or more and are rarely discounted, but Woot! has them for up to 60% off. They have a lot of premium features you won't find on your standard gaming keyboards, like a full metal body, QMK/VIA support, pre-lubed mechanical switches, a double gasket design, and more. I myself use the Keychron Q2 as my daily driver, and it is the best keyboard I've used.
Up to 60% Off Keychron Q-Series Mechanical Keyboards
The Keychron Q-series models differ in their keys layout. The differences are as follows:
- Q2 – Exploded 65%
- Q3 – Tenkeyless (80%)
- Q4 – 60%
- Q5 – Exploded 96%
All Q-series keyboards feature a full aluminum CNC machined body. They are heavy, sturdy keyboards that are built like tanks. The shell will easily outlast any other part of the keyboard. These keyboards have a double gasket design which helps produce a pleasant sound profile while you type. Additional sound-absorbing foam is added to reduce any vibrations from the chassis. PCB-mounted screw-in stabilizers are installed on the big keys like the space bar, shift, enter and delete keys. The keycaps are made from a PBT material that won't become oily or shiny with prolonged use. The legends aren't see-though, but the LEDs are south-facing so you still get a nice subtle RGB LED effect from the perimeter of the keys.
You can choose from Red, Brown, or Blue mechanical switches depending on your preference. These are all pre-lubed Gateron G Pro switches with up to 50 million keystroke lifespan. The Q-series keyboards have a hot swappable design that's compatible iwth most 3pin and 5pin MX mechanical switches on the market (including Cherry, Gateron, Kailh, Panda, etc). The keys are also all mappable via the open source QMK/VIA firmware. Every key can be remapped and macros are supported in Windows, macOS, and Linux. Since it can all be configured in your browser, there's no need to download any bloated software app.
Who is Keychron?
Keychron might not be as well known amongst the gamers compared to brands like Razer, Corsair, Logitech, or SteelSeries, but they are a familiar brand amongst the keyboard modding community. Several of their keyboard models start out as crowdfunded ideas on Kickstarter. They offer a huge range of keyboards with features that you wouldn't find in most mainstream keyboards like pre-lubed hot-swappable mechanical keys, gaskets for improved sound profile, south-facing RGB LEDs, a hefty all-metal chassis, wired and wireless dual connectivity, and more. If you're unwilling to jump into the rabbit hole of diy-ing your own modded custom keyboard, Keychron is pretty much the next best thing.
