LAUNCHER WEB APP
Program with QMK & Launcher.
The open-source QMK firmware means endless possibilities for key remapping, macros, shortcuts, and more. Now you can easily customize each key with the Keychron Launcher web app.
PRECISION
WIRED FOR 8K SPEED
The V1 8K achieves an 8K polling rate, ensuring the lowest possible input lag and ultra-responsive performance. The stable, high-bandwidth wired connection is essential for reliably maintaining this high 8K data transmission speed.
POWERFUL ARM CORE
An Epic Core Inside The Keyboard
A powerful ARM architecture MCU equipped with 256K Flash and QMK open-source firmware to provide more flexibility for developers. The polling rate is 8000 Hz (adjustable from 125Hz to 8000Hz) , which makes the latency hardly noticeable even in competitive games, delivering optimal performance.
Customize
Customize every part
To build a fully customizable keyboard, we designed every component to be able to assembled easily. Therefore, you can customize and adjust each component as you wish.
Keycap
Double-shot PBT keycaps of the V1 8K provide excellent oil resistance and prevent the legends from fading out.
Switch
The core mechanical component; different types (Linear / Tactile) offer unique feel and sound.
Top Case
A durable ABS plastic body for a lightweight, reliable typing experience.
Plate
The plate in a keyboard secures switches in place, provides structural support, and influences typing feel and sound.
Sound Absorbing Foam
By absorbing echo and noise, the sound absorbing foam produces a cleaner typing sound.
IXPE Foam
Placed between switches and PCB, the IXPE Foam helps reduce keystroke vibration transmission and optimizes typing sound.
PCB
The circuit board that registers keystrokes; hot-swappable versions allow easy switch changes.
Latex Bottom Pad
The soft foams that can help reduce vibration and noise and give a cushioned typing feel.
BOTTOM CASE ACOUSTIC FOAM
The bottom case acoustic foams can help reduce vibration and noise and give a cushioned typing feel.
Bottom Case Pet Film
The PET Film insulates from shorts, shields internals from dust/scratches, and provides minor dampening.
Bottom CASE
A durable ABS plastic body for a lightweight, reliable typing experience.
CUSTOMIZE
Gasket mount 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.
STABILITY
Suitable for All Devices
Built with the Mac users’ experience in mind while still retaining compatibility for Windows devices, the V1 8K 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.
CUSTOMIZE
OSA Profile Double-shot PBT Keycaps
It has a similar height to that of the OEM profile and has an SA-like shape. We named it the OSA (OEM spherical angled) keycap. The PBT keycaps will provide excellent oil resistance, enhance the type feel, and prevent the legends from fading out.
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 V1 8K with almost all of the 3-pin and 5-pin 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
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 wobbly. The big keys’ (space bar, shift, enter, delete) typing experience is now more stable and smoother.
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.
