  • Ergonomic Layout - Keychron Q8 is a 65% Alice layout all-metal mechanical keyboard. The keyboard is split into left and right halves for balance, and the curved split keyframe allows for more natural typing, working all day, reducing wrist fatigue and forearm muscles strain. With the full aluminum CNC machined body, double-gasket design, and QMK/VIA support, the Q8 is designed for premium typing comfort and endless possibility.
  • Programmable Knob - With full QMK and VIA support, you can easily program and remap each key on the keyboard. You can easily customize the Q8's knob to your desired key or macro commands such as: zooming in/out, adjusting screen brightness, brush size, volume, selecting video clips or photos, or backlight hue.
  • Hot-swappable - The hot-swappable sockets are compatible with almost all the MX style 3pin and 5pin mechanical switches on the market (including Gateron, Cherry, Kailh, etc.), you can hot-swap the Q8 Knob version without soldering. The big keys’ (space bar, shift, enter, delete) typing experience is now more stable and smooth with the new screw-In PCB stabilizers.
  • South-facing RGB LED Lights - Designed to better illuminate the keyboard backlight from the typist's angle with the premium non-shine-through PBT keycaps installed. The south-facing RGB is also free from interference when the users install OEM or Cherry-profile alternative keycaps on the keyboard.
  • Double-Gasket Design - New innovative structure in the industry. In addition to the gaskets on the plates, we added silicone pads between the top and bottom cases to significantly reduce the sound resonance between the metals and reduce the noise of the impacted metals. This design allows the keyboard to maintain the flexibility of the gasket structure and improves the overall typing sound.
  • Pre-lubed Gateron G Pro Switch - The Optimized molded switch with more precise positioning and less wobble will undoubtedly improve the feel at your fingertips. With the fully assembled Q8 version fitted with factory pre-lubricated Gateron G Pro switches, a smoother travel experience is guaranteed for you.
