The Keychron Q15 Max is a full metal ortholinear wireless QMK custom mechanical keyboard. It features equally sized keys in a compact gridded layout, designed with two programmable knobs and a split-spacebar design. The keyboard supports 2.4G wireless and Bluetooth 5.1 connectivity, allowing it to connect to up to three devices simultaneously. It includes multiple layers of acoustic foams and a double-gasket design to enhance sound quality and typing comfort. The Q15 Max also boasts PBT keycaps, screw-in stabilizers, and a powerful ARM Cortex-M4 chip with 256K Flash, providing a high polling rate of 1000 Hz in 2.4 GHz and wired modes, and 90 Hz in Bluetooth mode.

The Keychron Q15 Max is priced at $219 for the fully assembled version, which includes the keyboard PCB, case, PC plate, keycaps, and switches. A barebone version, which does not include keycaps and switches, is also available.
