Customisation is powered by QMK/VIA firmware, enabling real-time remapping, macro creation, and RGB control via the Keychron Launcher app. Backed by an ARM Cortex-M4 32-bit processor, a robust 4000 mAh battery, and hot-swappable support for both 3-pin and 5-pin MX-style switches, the Q6 Max is fully equipped for high-performance users who demand adaptability without compromise.
Finished in a sleek Carbon Black, the keyboard includes high-durability double-shot PBT keycaps (KSA profile), ensuring long-term resistance to shine and fading.
