Keychron‘s mechanical keyboards are quite popular among consumers for their customizability and solid build. The company consistently surprises us with its innovative designs. Recently, they introduced a keyboard that can literally split into two. Today, the brand unveiled the Keychron Q9 Plus mechanical keyboard, featuring double space keys and a unique rotary knob. Let’s take a closer look at the details.
Keychron Q9 Plus brings serious customizability
The Keychron Q9 Plus comes with a minimalistic design. It is a 40% keyboard, which means it has a smaller layout than a traditional keyboard. The Q9 Plus also has two space keys, which is something you don’t often see in a regular keyboard. The body of the Q9 Plus is made of CNC aluminum, which makes it sturdy and durable. The Gasket Design central suspension fixed structure design is a new type of keyboard mount that is designed to provide a more comfortable and flexible typing experience.
The Keychron Q9 Plus mechanical keyboard comes with two sets of keycaps: one set for macOS and one set for Windows. This means that you can easily switch between operating systems without having to change out the keycaps. The keyboard also supports QMK / VIA open-source key change, which allows you to customize the keymap and program keys to your liking.
The key caps on the Q9 Plus are made of ergonomic OSA PBT ball caps. PBT is a type of plastic that is more durable than ABS, the material that is typically used for keycaps. OSA keycaps are also designed to be more ergonomic, with a spherical shape that is supposed to be more comfortable to type on.
The Keychron Q9 Plus mechanical keyboard is available in three switch bodies: K Pro brown switch, red switch, and banana switch. These are all mechanical switches, which means that they have a spring inside that makes them click or clack when you press them. The Q9 Plus also supports hot-swapping and comes with south-facing RGB lighting effects. In the upper right corner of the keyboard, there is a stepless knob that can be used to adjust the volume.
The Keyboard will go on sale in China on July 4. The pricing is yet to be announced.
