The Best Wireless Mechanical Keyboard for Mac? Keychron Q1 Pro Review

What mouse is that? Is it the MX Master 3S? Do you encounter any stuttering? Thinking of getting it but concerned about this Mac / Logitech stuttering issue.

Just got the Q1 pro barebone in Shell White, still waiting for switches and caps though. But man, straight out of the box this feels like a tank! The rotary encoder and knob feel amazing, very smooth and precise. I will never buy a mainstream pre-built plastic Ducky, Corsair or Logitech ever again, this is so much better! It's my first custom board and I don't really have anything else to compare it to than those plastic ones, but it feels great so far. Still, I'm going to mod the s**t out of it just to learn.

Hopefully this trend of highly customizable boards will just increase over time and larger companies will jump on it too, I don't mind spending $300-400 or even more on a board if the quality is there.

Sounds great! While people want to balk at the price it's only a few dollars more than an Apple keyboard with touchID and I'm sure types much better!

nice review! ⌨

I would recommend the Nuphy Halo 75 in white. (No mods) Night breeze switches are good.

Out of interest why did you not go for the ISO version? :)

Great video !! I'm looking for a video about a special edition for a week, Is any difference between normal and special edition ?

What kind of music instalation do you have on your desk?

bruh you type like a boomer 😂
Your right hand was only using 1 finger during the typing test

Come on bruv. As a brit you should've had at least a hint of a smile when saying knob 🍆

Blooming brilliant. I like it. Can u get a white or clear poly top plate for better RGB reflection?
What changed in the Q2?

Does the keyboard support wireless via a usb dongle? I need to use the keyboard at boot time and BT connects after the OS boots 😂

Wait, he said the switch doesn't change the sound profile of the board??? That's a first...

when connected does it always charge the battery, or this a way to bypass it

Is that still the 42” C2 TV or have you switched to another LG panel?

I would recommend the force break mod. It's simple to do and makes the most difference (even the mods in your video). It gets rid of the annoying pinging noise.

Loved the video! I have a stupid question about the Kilmat sound dampening, did you peel and stick them into the case or did you put them in unpeeled?

What is the name of the item you put in the bottom case?

Not buying any Keychron in the future, very disappointed by their K1, battery life goes to only 20% after 1 year of use, and frequently disconnect with the bluetooth on Macbook

Great mods! Sounds much better!

Keychron Q1 Pro's bluetooth interferes severely with other bluetooth devices, especially speakers and earphones, making them unusable.

I love how you type, because it's so similar to my technique. I remember failing all my technique test in college typing, as the most accurate and fastest typist in the class.

I have the Q1 non-pro with the same layout. I didn't realize it at the time, but losing the dedicated END key is a huge setback....I instinctively use it all the time. So I went and got myself a K10 which is a full layout and all is well in the world again.... I'd sacrifice the knob to get that key back. Side by side with my K10 Pro there is no real difference in typing feel and sound, they are both pretty similar overall.

Horizontal scrolling for the knob? Y arent u using the side wheel of your MX master?

Great video! What’s the song in the intro called?

Thank you for this review.

Great review mate. Even better tutorial and hacks to improve it!

ffs i just bought my first mechanical, a Gmmk Pro, only thing it was missing was the wireless stuff... well well, i had to start somewhere... rabbit hole next!

High quality video, 100k subs in no time! Keep going! The boards seems to be nice, will consider it

Well done for keeping a straight face when saying ‘otherwise known as a KNOB’ 😂

Looks like a nice board. Keychron’s Pro series is full of interesting products- been loving my K3 Pro.

sick video dude. what is the grid desk mat are you using ?

wow cool 🤩🤩
