The screw-in design increases stability and makes it easier for changes and upgrades. The big keys’ (space bar, shift, enter, delete) typing experience is now more stable and smooth. Note: The Keychron Q1 v2 also supports third-party stabilizers including Cherry or Durock. 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. This design allows the keyboard to maintain the flexibility of the gasket structure and improves the overall typing sound. The hot-swappable sockets are mounted on the PCB and compatible with almost all the MX style 3pin and 5pin mechanical switches on the market (including Gateron, Cherry, Kailh, etc.), you can install or change the switches without soldering. Pre-installed the pre-lubed Gateron G Pro mechanical red switch providing unrivaled linear responsiveness with up to 50 million keystroke lifespan.
