An Epic Core Inside The Keyboard:
- A powerful ARM Cortex-M4 chip (MCU) equipped with 256K Flash provides more flexibility for developers.
- The polling rate is 1000 Hz out of the box on 2.4 GHz and wired modes (90 Hz on Bluetooth mode), minimizing latency even in competitive games.
Double-Gasket Design:- The Double Gasket Design is an innovative structure in the industry.
- In addition to the gaskets on the plates, silicone pads are added between the top and bottom cases to significantly reduce acoustic resonance and noise from impacted metals.
- This design combination with a flexible PC (Polycarbonate) plate maintains the flexibility of the gasket structure and enhances the overall typing sound and comfort.
Suitable for All Devices:
- Built with the Mac user experience in mind, while retaining compatibility with Windows devices, the Q5 Max comes with a system toggle and an additional set of customized keycaps for both Windows and macOS systems.
- You can save two different layouts on the keyboard, one for each system.
Program with QMK & Launcher
- The open-source QMK firmware provides endless possibilities for key remapping, macros, shortcuts, and more.
- You can easily customize each key with the Keychron Launcher web app.
