First impression when holding the Keychron Q6 Ultra 8k is this boy is HEAVY and built so well that you can throw anything at it, just don’t throw the keyboard at anything. For gaming the Keychron is excellent, the keys are well spaced and there is NO fatigue no matter how long you game. I love that I don’t need to install a new app to adjust the keys/RGB/micros, all you do is plug in the keyboard and go to the URL. The Q6 also has 8k polling rate when plugged in or on the 2.4 mode and this is a must for competitive gamers as there is basically no lag whatsoever. While the keyboard is mainly for gaming it works well when it comes of office work also. As it is a gaming keyboard the keys aren’t the best for speed, but I was able to do 60+ WPM with ease with 98% accuracy, this was straight from unboxing. Be warned though as the keys are very sensitive you will get accidental keypresses, I didn’t have any issue with double presses. One of the things that the Q6 does that no other wireless keyboard has been able to do for me is wake a windows laptop from sleep consistently. I have 4 other wireless keyboards and none can wake my windows laptops (x86 and ARM) from sleep, it’s such an annoyance having to open the lid every time I want to use my laptop plugged into to a larger monitor. My biggest issue is the keyboard needs to be plugged in to update/configure the keyboard setting, there needs to be an update so adjustments can be made while not plugged in. Overall the keyboard is great and is made for competitive gamers, as I think they are the only ones that will truly appreciate the level of customization. I love the fact that you can transition from windows to mac/ wired to wireless and change out the keys in seconds. The keys are excellent and there is no way you will experience any type of fatigue when using the keyboard. While weight maybe an issue for some, I appreciated that the keyboard wouldn’t budge while sitting on my desk or keyboard trey.

First thing I noticed when this was delivered to my house was how heavy this keyboard is. It is made and engineered with top tier high quality parts including everything from the inside out. The framing of the keyboard itself is solid metal giving it such a heavy weight and feel to it. With that weight it doesn't move at all when using it even during intense gaming sessions with intense movement and presses on the keyboard. It comes pre-setup for a Mac OS which means for most users we will have to swap out a few of the keys on the keyboard and fortunately they included the tools to do that along with the replacement keys for the Alt and the windows keys. I was able to quickly pop off the four that came pre-installed and replaced with the correct windows keys. They've also made this keyboard modular so that it's easy enough to replace the actual mechanical key parts should one of them fail or break. I like the fact that it can connect via USB to my primary workstation and then I can easily flip over via Bluetooth to connect to my other gaming workstation when I need to work on that one or access it for other reasons. Having the ability to use this keyboard on multiple computers without unplugging anything and just flipping the toggle switch on the top of the keyboard is a lifesaver. My only complaint about this keyboard is that I personally prefer the clicks of a traditional mechanical keyboard. This mechanical keyboard has a soft key feel and sound to it so you do not get the clicking or the same type of feedback that you do in a traditional mechanical keyboard. For a lot of people that may be exactly what they want is the mechanical functionality without the clicks and the noise. Me personally I like that in a mechanical keyboard. Pros - Extremely high quality materials and craftsmanship - Ability to connect to multiple computers - Online website for configuration of RGB lights and Macro key assignments Cons - Doesn't have the same clicking of most traditional mechanical keyboards - Comes setup with the keys for a Mac so all windows users will have to replace 4 different keys out the box - Extremely heavy compared to EVERY other keyboard I have ever owned or used This keyboard is as functional as it is gorgeous to look at. It has many options that can be configured via their website to download various macro key settings as well as changing the color settings on the RGB for the backlit keys. This is a keyboard for a serious professional or those gamers who want to take their gaming setups to the next level aesthetically.

This is one of the nicest, heavy-duty feeling keyboards I have ever reviewed. It sits on your desk with authority, just emitting an energy that says, “I need to be used.” My fingers have never felt so eager to type, to game, to plug away in excel spreadsheets on the full numpad! This keyboard comes with everything you need to have utility and usability with either Mac or PC, and that flexibility makes a huge difference to a user like me! This keyboard has great options for connectivity. I am using it in its wired form with my PC and I have absolutely loved it. The fact that I can go wireless or use Bluetooth is great, but I will be real that with how big and heavy this keyboard is, I see no point in keeping it in a untethered portable form. Wired is consistent and I know I never have to worry about the keyboard dying while I am in the middle of running for my life from a rocketeer in Arc Raiders. The brown switches it comes with are perfect for typing and gaming in my opinion, with the tactile bump at the bottom ensuring you never exert unnecessary force or travel on the keys while you are rapidly navigating the keyboard. At this price, you are getting many great accessories and tools packaged with the keyboard to ensure you get the most versatile experience out of it. Switch replacement, keycap replacement including keycaps included to easily switch between MacOS and Windows layouts are all present. The only thing that I wish was present with this keyboard and that isn’t is a wrist rest. They do have custom wrist rests available on the Keychron website but given how tall this keyboard is and without height adjustment, I think I would have liked one in the box at the price. I have irritable old man wrists as a 31 year old and the extreme angle my wrists have to be bent back when typing if I want to rest my wrists on the desks is not pleasant. Still, this one small complaint aside, everything else you are getting here is so good. Keychron has really made an exceptional keyboard here that is ready to go for your hardest gaming sessions or in the eventuality that you need a blunt weapon to defend yourself with in your office if an assailant comes crashing through the window. Thanks for reading and I hope this helps you get geared up for your purchase!
