Keychron Q6 Max

At a glance

2184 grams of aluminium

A full aluminium case. It stays where you put it and it does not sound like plastic.

Gasket mount

A PC plate held in gaskets over layers of foam, for a softer bottom-out.

Three ways in

2.4 GHz, Bluetooth 5.1 across three devices, or USB-C, switched on the board.

QMK and VIA

Two kilos of aluminium

The case is aluminium and the board weighs 2184 grams. That mass is not decoration: it stops the keyboard sliding under a fast hand, and it absorbs the resonance that makes a plastic case sound hollow.

Keychron Q6 Max structure

Held in gaskets, not bolted down

A PC plate sits between gaskets rather than screwed to the case, with sound-absorbing foam, IXPE, PET film and a latex bottom pad beneath it. The assembly gives very slightly under each press, which is what takes the hard edge off the bottom-out.

Double-gasket design

Hot-swappable, Gateron Jupiter inside

It ships with Gateron Jupiter switches, and every socket takes 3-pin and 5-pin MX-style switches without a soldering iron — Gateron, Cherry MX, Kailh and the rest.

Hot-swap sockets

Screw-in PCB stabilisers

The stabilisers under the spacebar, shift, enter and backspace screw into the PCB rather than clipping to the plate. That is the version that does not rattle, and third-party screw-in stabilisers fit too.

Keycaps that stay matte

Double-shot PBT in the OSA profile — an OEM height with a spherical dish, so the fingertip sits in the key rather than on it. The legends are a second piece of plastic rather than paint, and PBT resists the shine ABS picks up with use.

OSA double-shot PBT keycaps

Mac and Windows on one board

A toggle moves the board between macOS and Windows, with the extra keycaps for the modifier keys that differ in the box, and a keymap for each system stored on the keyboard.

What comes in the box

The keyboard, the 2.4 GHz receiver, a USB-C cable with a Type-A adapter, the extra keycaps for the other operating system, a combined keycap and switch puller, a hex key for the case, and the quick start guide.
