Choose the keycaps, switches and more accessories for your Q6 Pro
Wireless and Wired
An excellent solution for multitasking. You can connect the Q6 Pro with up to 3 devices wirelessly via its stable Broadcom Bluetooth 5.1 for seamless multitasking across your laptop, phone, and tablet. Switch among them swiftly, and it’s fully compatible with both Mac and Windows. A reliable USB Type-C wired connection is also available when you need it.
A Refined Piece Of Metal Art
The entire metal body is crafted with 6063 aluminum that is processed through CNC machined, polished, anodized, sandblasted, and undergoes 24 more manufacturing stages to make this solid metal piece of art that is the Q6 Pro.
Easy Assemble
We designed every component to be able to assemble easily so you can customize and adjust each component with ease to create your ultimate typing experience.
Double-Gasket Design
The Double Gasket Design is a 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.
Experience the next level of key sounds and comfort with our gasket mount design together with a flexible PC (Polycarbonate) plate. This design combination allows the keyboard to maintain the flexibility of the gasket structure and improves the overall typing sound.
An Epic Core Inside The Keyboard
A powerful ultra-low-power ARM Cortex-M4 32-bit STM32L432 chip (MCU) equipped with 128K Flash will provide more flexibility for developers. The polling rate is 1000 Hz right out of the box on type-c wired mode (90 Hz on wireless mode), which makes the latency hardly noticeable even in competitive games.
KSA Double-Shot PBT Keycaps
To further fine-tune your typing experience, we designed our unique Keychron spherical-angle (KSA profile) double-shot keycap set with premium non-backlight shine through PBT material, that is oil-resistant and durable for long-term use.
Suitable for All Devices
Built with the Mac users’ experience in mind while still retaining compatibility for Windows devices, the Q6 Pro comes with a system toggle and an additional set of customized keycaps for both Windows and macOS systems. You can now save two different layouts on the keyboard, one for each system.
Program with QMK & Launcher.
The open-source QMK firmware means endless possibilities for key remapping, macros, shortcuts, and more. Now you can easily customize each key with the Keychron Launcher web app.

Hot-swappable.
Every detail matters for a personalized typing experience, that’s why we give you the power. You can hot-swap every switch on the Q6 Pro with almost all of the 3pin and 5pin MX style mechanical switches on the market (including Cherry, Gateron, Kailh, Panda, etc.) without soldering required. You can customize your own typing experience in seconds.
South-facing RGB LED Lights.
Comes with 22 types of RGB backlight settings. You can further fine-tune the RGB hue, saturation, brightness, effect speed, and different modes, or even remap these keys with QMK/VIA.
Keychron K Pro Mechanical Switch
By optimizing the switch mold, the Q6 Pro switch wobbles less than the standard mechanical switch and feels smoother on each hit. Plus, the factory pre-lubed K Pro switches will ensure the best fingertip smoothness. Not to mention the banana switch provides an early tactile bump at the top with a uniquely smooth experience like those Panda switches on the market.
PCB Stabilizers
No detail is too insignificant when it comes to your fingertip feel. We’ve integrated the PCB-mounted screw-in stabilizers for a smoother typing experience with less wobbliness on the big keys such as the space bar, shift, enter, and delete keys. You can even customize your favorite stabilizers on your own.
Looking for ISO Layout?
The Q3 Pro ISO collection comes with fully assembled keyboards with 🇬🇧UK, 🇩🇪German, 🇩🇰🇫🇮🇳🇴🇸🇪Nordic, 🇨🇭Swiss, 🇫🇷French, and 🇪🇸 Spanish layout, and the “Barebone ISO Knob" option is suitable for all ISO countries (e.g.: 🇮🇹Italy, 🇵🇹Portuguese, 🇭🇺Hungary, etc.) to build their keyboard with keycaps in their preferred languages and switches.

It's really top notch. Incredibly good build, solid, well thought and beautiful in its simplicity. Everything works flawlessly, all parts are crafted to perfection, looks and feels great. I really have not comments and can't go back to an ordinary keyboard anymore.
So everything is perfect? No. There's only one problem for me and it's a big one, it's called lighting. I am not a fan of RGB, but I am a fan of backlight. I work in dark environment and want my keyboard to be perfectly lit, along with the legends on the keycaps. I could live with the south facing LEDs and with the non shine though keycaps, there are many alternatives, although such an expensive keyboard should be able to offer solutions for that. My main problem is that the backlight is not strong enough to the maximum setting, as sometimes I need my desk lamp turned on , or there's sun coming in my room. Such an expensive keyboard should be blinding at max level. Probably this is some kind of compromise to preserve battery life when on bluetooth, but the bottom line is that it's an extraordinary keyboard and so should be its lighting.
All this light thing (south LEDs, non shine through keycaps, weak backlight at max level) smudge for me an otherwise perfect keyboard.
This keyboard is top notch. First things first, the delivery to Belgium went very smooth knowing the keyboard was shipped from China. The packaging of the keyboard is also worth mentioning not only does it look nice, it is sturdy and travel worthy. Okay, Okay the keyboard itself... JUST WOW! I chose the black finish with those nice light blue esc and enter keys and it is 1 on 1 with the showcase photos available on the website. The keyboard carries a nice weight and thus it sits nicely where it's told to sit, even on slippery desks it needs a decent/hard push to be moved. On to the keycaps. The profile of the keycaps curl with the fingers wich allows for smooth travelling and makes sure the keys are easily attacked at the right angle. Im not expierenced in keyboards or switches, but those banana switches i chose, really have a nice relaxed feel to them but this is more of a personal opinion of course. Another personal opinion is the sound the board produces. To my liking, the keystrokes sound mid to deep with a nice body to it so it has a nice full sound. For the ones that are into all the RGB backlight effects, more than enough quality options to play with. I'm more of an office style type of guy so im happy with just a white backing.
I didn't fiddle with the software side of the keyboard yet, but as a software engineer myself, the build quality of the board already tells me that it will be just fine.
So to make an end to the story, one happy customer right here!
I'm sure this board will stay with me for a long long time.
It's my 2nd Keychron keyboard - wanted a full size keyboard which I can customize. This keyboard has everything I wanted + gasket. Still not sure if a gasket is better or not - hard to tell the difference.
Keychron is surely one of the best keyboard manufactures available. You'll make no mistake getting one of those :). Well-built - they even send some extra screws in case you'll lose one.
All good
Amazing build quality
