A wonderful keyboard...

Mechanically delightful, probably the best keyboard I've ever used. I bought the barebones ISO version - and added Boba U4 switches and make a super silent keyboard. My only niggle is that I need a UK macOS ISO layout and will have to customise the qmk setup in order to make it perfect. The grave, NUBS, NUHS keys don't do what my mac thinks they should at all, and they seem to swap around with reboots (§± should be on the grave key but are on the key to the left of the enter key, `~ are on the grave key instead of the key to the right of the left-shift key, \| are on the key to the right of the left-shift key instead of the key to the right of the enter key. Wrapping me head around VIA and QMK is taking a while... but the keyboard is STILL the best keyboard ever!

Very high quality, fast delivery

Week delivery from China pretty decent, high quality would buy again

Well built and a delight to use

Compared with my old (and much cheaper) generic mechanical keyboard, the Q3 is an absolute delight to type on - it feels silky and at the same time solid. And the fact that it weight an absolute ton (!) helps it stay resolutely in place on my desk while I work, instead of gradually moving around. The layout was also easy to configure to my preference, including a better backlight scheme (plain, static white!). Works well with both Windows and Linux.

Heavy duty - shame about delivery process

Negative first : The delivery service/company is terrible. Slow, confusing and really disappointed to see China is where it comes from. WAY over priced that is for sure. While I was specifically looking for a cable keyboard, I can certainly see how many people would like it to also have wireless option as well. Perhaps a little dongle in the USB-c port?
Software seems a bit buggy, annoyingly I seem to only be able to access it via a webpage?

Positives: The keyboard is nice. Not even had it for 24 hours yet but it is a joy to type on. Love the colours/lights. The keyboard is really heavy, and this provides a "solid feel" to it. I would have preferred an ever so slight increase in size to increase the platform you press on the keys just a tiny bit.

Feedback:
I would suggest making this in any other country apart from China. Japan is known for high quality manufacturing (look at their cars, computer gear and cameras!). Change your delivery company because this A17 or what ever they were called, are terrible. It is 2023 not 1923.

All-Around Customizable Keyboard

To build a fully customizable keyboard, we designed every component easily assembled. Therefore, you can customize and adjust each component you want.

Double-Gasket Design

The Double Gasket Design is a new innovative structure in the industry. 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.

Programmable Knob

Designed to enhance your creative workflow, the aluminum rotary encoder allows you to easily customize your favorite keys and macros on the knob through the VIA software.

You can easily customize the Q3's knob to your desired key or macro commands such as: zooming in/out, adjusting screen brightness, brush size, volume, selecting video clips or photos, or backlight hue.

An Epic Core Inside The Keyboard

A powerful ultra-low-power ARM architecture MCU equipped with 128K Flash will provide more flexibility for developers. The polling rate is 1000 Hz out of the box, which makes latency non-existent for the competitive game.

Switch layouts between macOS & Windows

Built with the Mac users’ experience in mind while still retaining compatibility for Windows devices, the Keychron Q3 comes with a system toggle and an additional set of customized keycaps for both Windows and macOS systems. You can now save two different layouts on the keyboard, one for each system.

Program Q3 with QMK & VIA

With full QMK and VIA support, you can easily program and remap each key on the keyboard. The open-source firmware means endless possibilities for keyboard layouts, shortcuts, backlight effects, even the knob, and more. A brand new ultra-low-power Arm structure MCU which is powerful, and armed with 128K Flash will provide more flexibility for developers.

Hot-swappable.

The hot-swappable sockets are mounted on the PCB, so you can install or change the switches without soldering. The PCB supports both 3 pin and 5 pin MX mechanical switches.

South-facing RGB LED Lights.

The south-facing RGB is designed to better illuminate the keyboard backlight from the typist’s angle with the premium non-shine-through PBT keycaps installed. The south-facing RGB is also free from interference when the user installs Cherry-profile alternative keycaps on their keyboard.

Pre-lubed Gateron G Pro Switch

By optimizing the switch mold, the G Pro switch wobbles less than a standard mechanical switch and feels smoother on each hit. Plus, the factory pre-lubed process on all the G Pro switches (excluding the clicky ones) will no doubt ensure the best smoothness at your fingertips when typing.

Gateron G Pro Switch Features
Screw-in PCB stabilizers

All New Screw-In PCB Stabilizers

The screw-in design increases stability and makes it easier for changes and upgrades. Precise craftsmanship makes the stabilizers more stable and less shaky. The big keys’ (space bar, shift, enter, delete) typing experience is now more stable and smooth. The Keychron Q3 also supports third-party screw-in PCB stabilizers.
