Keychron Q6 Ultra 8K Mechanical Keyboard Review
Several months ago, a Redditor on /r/mechanicalkeyboards posted a new Keychron keyboard that was stumbled upon after perusing Best Buy’s website: The Q6 Ultra 8K. At that time, there was no mention of this keyboard on Keychron’s website, nor was it available at my local Best Buy (so I couldn’t see it for myself).

Keychron Q6 HE QMK Mechanical Keyboard Review
It’s a new year, meaning there’s a new set of keyboards that will assuredly be announced at every tech conference. Hopefully, this year we see some innovation in the 90%+ space – too many mechanical keyboards are restricted to the 75% layout for no good reason.

Keychron K5 QMK Wireless Mechanical Keyboard (Version 2) Review
When I first plugged in my Keychron K5 QMK Wireless Mechanical Keyboard (Version 2), I couldn’t happen but marvel at its slimness, its build quality, its shinethrough keycaps, and how it felt in hand. I was just blown away by how well-designed it was despite its affordable asking price. I’m getting ahead of myself. Let’s take a few steps back. The Keychron brand comes praised from Redditors and ot...[Read More]
