Keychron Q11 QMK Custom Mechanical Keyboard Barebone Kit

Coming in a 75% Layout and a split design, the Q11 helps you to explore the angles and positions that fit you the best. With its full metal CNC machined body, QMK/VIA support, and unique design, the Q11 is ideal for fulfilling your typing needs!

Split Design

With a split layout, the Q11 allows you to position each side where you feel most sensible and ergonomic. You can also use it as a non-split keyboard by linking the two halves with a bridge cable.

• Use the left half solely.
• Use the right half solely.
• QMK/VIA Support
• Rotary Encoder Knob
• CNC Aluminium Body
• Support macOS & Win
• 1000 Hz Polling Rate
• Hot-Swappable
• South-Facing RGB

A Refined Piece of Metal Art

The entire metal body is crafted with 6063 aluminium that is processed through CNC machined, polished, anodized, sandblasted, and undergoes 24 more manufacturing stages to make this solid metal piece of art that is the Q11.

All-Around Customizable Keyboard

To build a fully customizable keyboard, we designed every component easily assembled. Therefore, you can customize and adjust each component you want.

An Epic Core Inside the Keyboard

A powerful ultra-low-power ARM architecture MCU equipped with 128K Flash will provide more flexibility for developers. The polling rate is 1000 Hz right out of the box, which makes the latency hardly noticeable even in competitive games.

Switch Layouts Between macOS & Windows

Built with the Mac users’ experience in mind while still retaining compatibility for Windows devices, the Keychron Q11 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.

Programmable Knob

Designed to enhance your creative workflow, the aluminium rotary encoder allows you to easily customize your favourite keys and macros on the knob through the VIA software.

You can easily customize the Q11's knob to your desired key or macro commands such as: zooming in/out, adjusting screen brightness, brush size, volume, selecting video clips or photos, or backlight hue.

• Setting the macros for "zoom in/out"
• Using the knob as "zoom in/out"

Program Q11 with QMK & VIA

With full QMK and VIA support, you can easily program and remap each key on the keyboard. The open-source firmware means endless possibilities for keyboard layouts, shortcuts, backlight effects, even the knob, and more.

Hot-Swappable

The hot-swappable sockets are mounted on the PCB, so you can install or change the switches without soldering. The PCB supports both 3 pin and 5 pin MX mechanical switches.

South-Facing RGB LED Lights

The south-facing RGB LED is designed to better illuminate the keyboard backlight from the typist’s angle with the premium non-shine-through PBT keycaps installed. The south-facing RGB is also free from interference when the users install OEM or Cherry-profile alternative keycaps on the keyboard.

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 shaky. The big keys’ (space bar, shift, enter, delete) typing experience is now more stable and smooth. The Keychron Q11 also supports third-party screw-in PCB stabilizers.
