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 acoustic resonance between the metals and reduce the noise of the impacted metals.

Experience the next level of key sounds and comfort with our gasket mount design together with a flexible PC (Polycarbonate) plate. This design combination allows the keyboard to maintain the flexibility of the gasket structure and improves the overall typing sound.

An Epic Core Inside The Keyboard

A powerful ultra-low-power ARM Cortex-M4 32-bit STM32L432 chip (MCU) equipped with 128K Flash will provide more flexibility for developers. The polling rate is 1000 Hz right out of the box on type-c wired mode (90 Hz on wireless mode), which makes the latency hardly noticeable even in competitive games.

KSA 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.

Hot-swppable feature of Keychron Q5 Pro

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 Pro 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.

South-Facing RGB

Comes with 22 types of RGB backlight settings. You can further fine-tune the RGB hue, saturation, brightness, effect speed, and different modes, or even remap these keys with QMK/VIA.

Keychron K Pro Mechanical Switch

By optimizing the switch mold, the Q5 Pro switch wobbles less than the standard mechanical switch and feels smoother on each hit. Plus, the factory pre-lubed K Pro switches will ensure the best fingertip smoothness. Not to mention the banana switch provides an early tactile bump at the top with a uniquely smooth experience like those Panda switches on the market.

PCB Stabilizers

No detail is too insignificant when it comes to your fingertip feel. We’ve integrated the PCB-mounted screw-in stabilizers for a smoother typing experience with less wobbliness on the big keys such as the space bar, shift, enter, and delete keys. You can even customize your favorite stabilizers on your own.

Best keyboard ever!

Absolutely beautiful keyboard, amazing build quality. Very hefty as well. I got it with the brown switches and they are perfect for me. I love the size of the keyboard. I've been using a 100% previously, but the 96% feels better as I have small hands. I am so super impressed. Also the purple special edition just makes it even better. Well worth the money.

Sturdy and Heavy-Duty Keyboard

"This keyboard is heavier than a gaming laptop, which makes it sturdy and stable. Typing on it feels smooth and effortless, especially with the red switches, which I'm very satisfied with. The delivery time to Thailand was surprisingly quick."

Buttery smooth, superb silence, awesome experience!

Not a fan of long essay. I would say the overall experience with Fab from KS is super amazing. Turbo fast delivery, effortless setup and buttery smooth experience. Banana is superb compared to the browns I had been using for 10-15 yrs on ducky and filco. Best keyboard experience for me to date. Will recommend this to anyone anytime. Thank you!

11/10 ! No brainer anytime! Just get it!
