'Keychron' the computer accessory company, has debuted the 'Keychron Q1,' a fully customizable mechanical keyboard. While most mechanical keyboards are customizable, the Keychron Q1 is built to be customized, so the task is made to be as accessible and easy as it can be. Right from the point of sale, the Keychron Q1 can be purchased without keys or fully assembled in three different colors, with three options for key switches.
The Keychron Q1 comes with key options for iMac and PC, meaning the brand-specific keys can be adjusted to match your computer. On top of this, keys on the Q1 are easy to change because the process does not require soldering, as it does on some traditional mechanical keyboards. It is important to note that the Keychron Q1 is a 75% keyboard, meaning while it does have a row of 'F Keys' and arrow keys, it does not have a 'Numpad' on the right side.
