Great keyboard right out of the box
Upgraded from a Keychron K2 after 3 years. For someone who appreciates pre-built mechanical keyboards, this Q1 Max is great. The tactile response of the switches, overall weight in the frame, and functionality for Mac users is why I ended up with this keyboard. I’m glad I went with the banana switches; slight creaminess without being too loud is great.

Best keyboard I’ve ever owned (so far)
My initial one-month review is that this keyboard is the best I’ve ever used. The keys are the right balance of clicky and responsive without being completely obnoxious. I’ll admit I was going to swap out the brown switches for blues but decided to give it a week and really enjoy the more subtle tone of the browns.The keyboard is heavy enough to use as a blunt force weapon against a home invader and take no damage which is pretty awesome, and I like the concept the swappable switches and keys though I have yet to do that.The bluetooth and wireless dongle do what they say on the tin. No issues there.For the time being, I can give this keyboard a recommendation. I’ll update in a few months if things change.

Broke in a week
Broke with one splash of water falling from my beard. Insane waste of money.

Lags and disconnects
The sound and feel of the keyboard is amazing. Iâm using it for work so I use it extensive for more than 8 hours a day. My left hand is getting tired after a few hours due to the height and shape. A wrist rest doesnât help a lot. Every few days the connection using with the dongle starts to lag and sometimes non responsive for tens of seconds at a time. I bought this as my first wireless keyboard to reduce clutter on my desk, so I would be disappointed having to use it wired. I might give BT a try.

Premium typing experience
If you want a premium typing experience with out having to buy key caps, switches lube etc and build it your self. This is the board you need. First time trying the banana switches and they feel/sound amazing. Each key press is like a shot of dopamine. Prior to this i had a few mechanical boards keychron k4, corsair k70 low pro rapid fire and this one is on another level for sure. The F & J keys are slightly more indented than the others so you can position your fingers quickly. Excellent board, highly recommended. ð

Amo mi teclado, la sensación táctil es excelente, me gusta mucho el sonido y la sensibilidad de los switches Gateron Jupiter Banana, si comparo mi antigüo magic keyboard con esta belleza, el magic keyboard no tiene nada que hacer. Amo las teclas de PBT de doble inyección que no se desgastan con el tiempo ni se borra la leyenda de las teclas. Toda la construcción del teclado es de primera con un peso muy agradable, un chasis de aluminio el único defecto que tiene es que a veces se escriben dos espacios en lugar de uno al escribir, pero no es nada que me haga bajarle la calificación porque simplemente lo amo y creo que es el mejor teclado que he tenido.
