What Keychron Q1 Pro owners say

“I have three Keychron keyboards and this is a good one”
— @AndrewTalbert on YouTube
“this feels like a tank! The rotary encoder and knob feel amazing, very smooth and precise. I will never buy a mainstream pre-built plastic Ducky, Corsair or Logitech ever again, this is so much better!”
— @TheNorthernLights55 on YouTube
“I bought a Keychron Q1 Pro from microcenter which had a similar problem where the shift would work really inconsistently. I felt super bad returning it to microcenter but a keyboard at that price point should be flawless.”
