- Swap Gateron Jupiter Brown, Red, or Banana switches without soldering.
- Remap keys and record macros with QMK firmware and the Keychron Launcher web app.
- Flip the system toggle between Mac and Windows and keep a separate layout for each.
- Type on a gasket-mounted CNC aluminum body with layered acoustic foams and double-shot PBT keycaps.
- Get up to 180 hours from the 4000 mAh battery.
The keyboard uses an ANSI layout with south-facing RGB backlighting and weighs about 1.7 kg fully assembled. Launcher needs Chrome, Opera, or Edge and a wired connection, and Bluetooth mode polls at 90 Hz. It costs $229.99 fully assembled, and a barebone version without switches and keycaps is also sold.
