The Keychron Q1 HE is an impressive wireless mechanical keyboard that blends cutting-edge hall effect technology with a minimalist aluminium build, offering gamers and typists customisable control, fast actuation, and incredible versatility.
The market has been flooded with mechanical keyboards over the last decade, but not all are made equal. Keychron is a keyboard maker that distinguishes itself with customisable builds and clean aesthetics. I’ve been testing their new Q1 HE mechanical keyboard, which features hall effect magnetic switches and wireless QMK/VIA support in a compact 75% form factor. Spoiler alert, it’s one of the best wireless mechanical keyboards I’ve used to date. It's not without its quirks, but the attention to detail, responsiveness, and flexibility make it a top-tier offering.
