Customize

Satisfying Keyboard Acoustics

To build a fully customizable keyboard, we designed every component to be able to assemble easily. Therefore, you can customize and adjust each component as you wish.

CUSTOMIZE

DOUBLE-GASKET DESIGN

Silicone pads between the top and bottom cases reduce acoustic resonance, maintaining gasket flexibility and enhancing typing sound. The keyboard's bottom has an acoustic pad, improving sound quality with a slight impact on flexibility. Users seeking more flexibility can opt to remove the acoustic pad.

CUSTOMIZE

Suitable for All Devices

Built with the Mac users’ experience in mind while still retaining compatibility for Windows devices, the Q5 Ultra 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.

KEYCAP

KSA Profile Double-shot PBT Keycaps

To further fine-tune your typing experience, we designed our unique Keychron spherical-angle (KSA profile) double-shot keycap set with premium non-backlight shine through PBT material, that is oil-resistant and durable for long-term use.

CUSTOMIZE

HOT-SWAPPABLE

Every detail matters for a personalized typing experience, that’s why we give you the power. You can hot-swap every switch on the Q5 Ultra 8K with almost all of the 3pin and 5pin MX style mechanical switches on the market (including Cherry, Gateron, Kailh, Panda, etc.) without soldering required. You can customize your own typing experience in seconds.

STABILITY

Newly Enhanced Stabilizers

Our upgraded stabilizers now feature reinforced sidewalls around the stem, providing extra protection and significantly improving stability. These "walls" create a stronger connection between the switches and keycaps, ensuring smoother, more reliable typing on big keys like the spacebar, shift, enter, and delete.

backlight

Unlock Dynamic Backlit Control

Go beyond standard presets with 22+ RGB backlight settings — including a static white option. Our advanced lighting engine includes two powerful features to fuel your creativity: Per-key RGB and Mix RGB. You can further fine-tune and remap keys with ease, crafting your unique style with vivid, dynamic RGB control.

Per-key RGB

With Per-key RGB, every single key is a digital brushstroke. This feature lets you individually customize the color of each key, transforming your keyboard into a vibrant canvas. Learn how to set Per-key RGB on Launcher

RGB BACKLIGHT

MIX RGB

With Mix RGB, you can split your keyboard into two custom lighting zones, each with unique effects. Create high-contrast combinations to make your entire setup pop with vibrant style. Learn how to set Per-key RGB on Launcher
