Keychron Q1 Knob Keyboard
This might be my next keyboard (the down arrow on my Apple Magic Keyboard has stopped working )
The original Q1 without the knob got some pretty good reviews and this version is meant to improve on that with:
- An added knob.
- Knob version uses the Gateron G Pro switches instead of the Gateron Phantom switches.
- Double-Gasket Design with extra silicone gaskets installed between the top and bottom cases for an improved sound profile.
- A brand new ultra-low-power Arm Cortex-M4 32-bit STM32L432 MCU which is powerful, and armed with 128K Flash will provide more flexibility for developers.
- Slightly thicker bottom case to make the Q1 heavier, sturdier, and has much less ping noise.
- Steel plate instead of an aluminum plate, making the board heavier and sturdier.
- The top case has sharper corners to make it much more compatible with third-party keycaps.
- Abandoned the Coiled Aviator Cable to save some costs.
- New screw-in PCB stabilizer.
