Keychron V6 QMK/VIA Custom Mechanical Keyboard - Knob Version
The Keychron V6 is a fully customizable mechanical keyboard with QMK/VIA support. Anyone can intuitively master any keyboard keys or macro commands (incl. the knob) through the VIA software. The V6 is designed to be able to assemble easily, so you can customize the hardware and software with endless possibilities.
Hot-swappable
The pre-lubed Keychron K Pro mechanical switches come with an optimized mold with more precise positioning, and less wobbliness will certainly improve your fingertip feel. The Keychron switch is durable enough with unrivaled tactile responsiveness on the tactile brown switch and up to 50 million keystroke lifespan.
The hot-swappable sockets supports both 3 pin and 5 pin MX mechanical switches (including Cherry, Gateron, Kailh, Panda, etc.), so you can customize your favorite switches without soldering.
Program Each Key and Macro with QMK/VIA
Simply connect the V6 to your device with a cable, import the V6 keymap JSON file into the VIA software, drag and drop your favorite keys or macro commands to remap any key you want on macOS, Windows, or Linux operating systems, e.g.: create a macro command of a screenshot on macOS. Check our user guide or user manual for more instructions.
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.
All New Screw-In PCB Stabilizers
The screw-in design increases stability and makes it easier for changes and upgrades. Precise craftsmanship makes the stabilizers more stable and less wobbly. The big keys’ typing experience is now more stable and smooth. The Keychron V6 also supports third-party stabilizers including Cherry or Durock.
Wired Connectivity
A reliable USB Type-C wired connection with 1000 Hz polling rate and NKRO make sure you won't miss a beat no matter cranking out emails or code.
Note: Please avoid connecting the V6 with a laptop through a hub to ensure enough power supply. For the same reason, please turn off the keyboard backlight if the V6 is connecting with a tablet.
PBT Keycaps & South-facing RGB
The south-facing RGB is designed to better illuminate the keyboard backlight from the typist’s angle and free from interference when the user installs Cherry-profile alternative keycaps on the V6.
The V6 comes with our unique OSA profile (OEM profile with spherical-angle) and double-shot PBT keycaps that aim to provide a more comfortable and subtle fingertip feel with excellent oil resistance for long-term use.
All-Around Customizable Keyboard
We designed every component to be easily assembled, including keycaps, switches, gasket, plate, knob and case foam if you want.

While I was impressed with many aspects of this keyboard, I ended up returning it due to a few issues that I couldn't get past.Positives: heft and feel. I didn't realize that weight was something I was looking for in a keyboard but I really did appreciate how sturdy and well built this one is. The typing experience was also very good. I wanted to switch to a mechanical keyboard and this one is very satisfying in that regard. I also thought that the price was very good considering how well built it is.Negatives: In spite of having the correct keycaps, this keyboard is actually mapped for PC users. So, while the command key is in the right spot, pressing that key results in 'option' being sent instead. Keychron does provide means of remapping the keyboard via a web app that will only run in Chrome, Opera or Brave. If you have one of those installed, it is probably easy to make this a more Mac-like keyboard. Alternatively, you can install Karabiner and do the same. I didn't want to have to install software (I don't want any of those browsers) in order to be able to use the keyboard so this was where I started repacking the keyboard.Worth noting: Maybe this is common with gaming keyboards but, while the keys are backlit, the text printed on the keys is not. The backlighting is a rainbow that can be set to cycle around the keys (or not) and can be set to just red (so as to not spoil night vision?) and you can dim the backlighting (or turn it off) all from the keyboard itself. Maybe the web app has more options? In any event, I found the edge lighting to be way more distracting than having the text itself lit as most laptops have it. I wanted a keyboard with lit keys but not lit like this. You can apparently order keycaps that do light the lettering and then just replace all 128 keycaps yourself but I wanted a keyboard, not a project.So, as a Mac user and console game player, this keyboard was a miss for me.

I love this keyboard. It's silky smooth, the key travel is just right, and the overall feel is just plain solid. The frame is really heavy, which just adds to the overall feel. It's probably going to be my go-to keyboard for a very long time.Including the keycaps for both Mac and Windows is a really nice touch. With all of the available configurability you should be able to setup for just about anything you want.I'm not a fan of the multicolor lighting effects, but they can be easily disabled using the online configuration utility.Overall this is a great keyboard and highly recommended.

Bought one for myself, and it was so nice to maintain and use that I bought one for a friend of mine and customized it with custom switches. I find the preinstalled red linear to be wonderful to work with too, but if I ever feel like it I can change that up, along with the keycaps.Originally came from using an apex pro which used fast optical sensing for switch depression, but the apes pro wasn't very customizable, and was donezo after I spilled a drink, opened it, and realized that the apex pro had soldered key switches that made cleaning it not an option, or an option for a very desperate person.Also the optical keys felt nothing like mechanical red linear, which have much more tactile feedback, and in my opinion a much more fun typing experience. I like to take apart things, improve them, and put them back together, this keyboard is perfect for that, easy to maintain, easy to clean, and very easy to upgrade with new switches that just snap right in.One thing to mention, the QMK/VIA software to program the keyboard is one of the best interfaces I've worked with. It is a webpage you can connect to which directly loads instructions into the firmware of the board, instead of being another resource hog application on my computer. It is a far cry from many of the "gaming" keyboard software I've worked with, and it is a breath of fresh air.

Me encanta este teclado. Sus switches son muy fluidos y suaves. El sonido que hace es muy relajante. Tiene varias configuraciones y la perilla es útil para algunos macros específicos.

A lot heavier than I expected for the size. Seems very well built, the lighting effects and setup were simple. Pretty much plug-n-play on Linux. The included accessories are nice. Not a fan of the USB cable since it's not standard USB, but it works. Haven't tried to change the switches on it yet, but from switching the keycaps it looks to be very well built.The knob has a surprising amount of resistance to it, just enough that it's still easy to turn without worrying about accidentally hitting it.Overall, very impressed. Have had a few budget mechanical keyboards in the past, and my last keyboard was a Logitech G915, kind of miss the macro keys but for the ability to actually repair it when it breaks that's a small price to pay.

Very nicely made, relatively easy to disassemble and modify if needed. Only gripe is that the switch on the back for Win/Mac modes is a bit finicky, sometimes goes into Mac mode if disturbed. I just adjusted the switch on the main board so it permanently presses to Windows mode. Otherwise, great buy. Probably best bang for buck I've had out of mechanical keyboards.

* Build quality: 5 stars* Tactile feedback: 5 stars* Key Press Sound: 5 stars* Ease of connectivity: 5 starsSo this keyboard is probably one of the best keyboards I've ever purchased. I've been using it for about 4 months now and have had 0 issues with it. No problems with its construction, its build quality, its design, its layout, nada. This thing is built like a tank, too. Heavy solid frame, keys sound great when pressed and give excellent tactile and auditory feedback, and it worked with Windows 10 right out of the box. It cost nowhere near some of the higher end brands, like Das Keyboard, yet I think it exceeds their quality. Absolutely worth the price.The only thing I wish it could do is disable the LEDs. I don't care much for LEDs on my gear and most keyboards/mice have a way to disable them but I couldn't figure out how to do that with this keyboard.

I bough this keyboard for gaming and video editing. So far I really like the way the switches feel and the key caps look pretty nice. The Knob is at an awkward position but other than that I have no complaints. If Keychron ever makes a keyboard with the num pad on the left instead of the right I’ll prolly get that one as a replacement for this.
