Keychron's V8 Max Uses a 2.4Ghz Connection and the Alice Layout

— June 21, 2024 — Tech
The Keychron V8 Max is a custom mechanical keyboard featuring a 65% Alice layout. It offers both 2.4 GHz wireless and Bluetooth 5.1 connectivity, allowing users to connect to multiple devices seamlessly. The keyboard is designed with a gasket mount and sound-absorbing foam to enhance typing comfort and reduce noise. It includes double-shot PBT keycaps, which are resistant to oil and wear, and Gateron Jupiter switches. The V8 Max is compatible with both macOS and Windows, featuring a system toggle and additional keycaps for each operating system. It also supports QMK firmware, enabling extensive customization options for key remapping and macros.

The Keychron V8 Max is available in two versions: a fully assembled version priced at $99 and a barebone version priced at $79. The fully assembled version includes the keyboard housing, PCB, stabilizers, PC plate, keycaps, and switches, while the barebone version does not include keycaps and switches. The product can be purchased directly from Keychron’s website, and customers can sign up for notifications if the model is out of stock. No discount codes are applicable to this product, as Keychron does not allow codes to be used for its most recent releases.
