Your Keyboard, Your Rules

The Keychron Q5 Max puts total control in your hands. With QMK/VIA compatibility, every key, macro, and lighting effect is yours to remap and own — no compromises, no limitations. Whether you’re deep in a coding session or dominating a late-night gaming run, this board bends to your workflow.

Cut the Cable Without Cutting Corners

Switch effortlessly between 2.4 GHz wireless at a blazing 1000 Hz polling rate, Bluetooth 5.1 across multiple devices, or a reliable Type-C wired connection. The Q5 Max keeps you connected however and wherever you work — with up to 180 hours of wireless battery life to back you up.

Built to Sound as Good as It Feels

A CNC-machined aluminium body, double-gasket mounting, and multiple layers of acoustic foam combine to deliver a deep, satisfying thock with every keystroke. Pre-lubed Gateron Jupiter Red switches and screw-in PCB stabilisers make this one of the smoothest, most premium typing experiences you can get at this price.
