Keychron Q1 Ultra Overview

The Q1 Ultra 8K Wireless Mechanical Keyboard from Keychron is a next-generation mechanical keyboard for enthusiasts seeking unparalleled performance. Make a wired connection through USB-C or connect wirelessly via 2.4 GHz RF or Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity. Featuring an all-metal build, this keyboard utilizes Keychron Silk POM Banana tactile switches with a double-gasket design and multiple layers of acoustic padding for a premium typing experience.

This 75% size keyboard is made with Keychron spherical-angle (KSA profile) double-shot keycaps, along with a newly designed knob dial for media control. When connected via USB-C or 2.4 GHz RF, the Q1 Ultra has an 8000 Hz polling rate for highly responsive and low-latency inputs. N-key rollover ensures every simultaneous key press is registered, making it useful when playing games that require fast reaction times and multiple inputs. The south-facing RGB LEDs let you choose between 22 backlight modes with customizable hues, saturation, brightness, and effect speeds. This keyboard is compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux devices.

Keychron Silk POM Banana Tactile Switches
The Keychron Q1 Ultra comes with pre-lubed and hot-swappable Keychron Silk POM Banana tactile switches that are designed for gamers and typists who require precision and durability. They feature a high-quality POM housing and stem that provide a smooth and consistent typing experience. This tactile switch has an operating force of 57g, a 3.4mm travel distance, and an up to 50 million keystroke lifespan.
Aesthetic PC Backplate
One of the keyboard's defining features is a scratch-resistant polycarbonate backplate, which offers a clean and modern identity.
Double-Shot PBT Keycaps
The Q1 Ultra features durable KSA-profile double-shot PBT keycaps that provide oil resistance, enhance the typing experience, and prevent the legends from fading over time.
Battery Life
Get up to 660 hours of battery life off of a single charge with the 4000 mAh lithium polymer battery, meaning you can use this keyboard without fear of being interrupted or requiring frequent charging.
Program with ZMK and Keychron Launcher
The open-source ZMK firmware means endless possibilities for key remapping, macros, shortcuts, and more. With the Keychron Launcher web app, you can effortlessly remap keys, adjust actuation points, set the magnetic switches, and create personalized macro commands, shortcuts, and key combinations for each key.
Screw-In PCB Stabilizers
New screw-in PCB stabilizers make typing on large keycaps, such as the space bar, shift, and enter keys, much smoother and more stable. It also makes it easy to change or upgrade when required.
Double Gasket-Mount Design
An acoustic pad on the bottom and silicone pads between the top and bottom cases reduce acoustic resonance while maintaining gasket flexibility. The acoustic pad is removable for users who prefer a different acoustic profile.
Powerful ARM Core
Inside the Q1 Ultra is a powerful ARM core chip (MCU) equipped with 1MB Flash, which provides more flexibility for developers.
