Keychron brings wireless freedom to its new Keychron Q11 Ultra split keyboard

Keychron has officially launched the new Keychron Q11 Ultra mechanical keyboard, and it brings a big upgrade over the older Q11 model. The new version now supports full wireless connectivity, including wireless communication between both halves of the keyboard. This removes the extra cable that was previously needed to connect the two sides together.

The Keychron Q11 Ultra is a 75% split mechanical keyboard made for users who want a more comfortable typing position without changing to a completely different layout. Since it still uses a normal row-staggered design, most people moving from a regular keyboard should feel comfortable using it right away.

One of the biggest highlights is the wireless support. Users can connect the keyboard through Bluetooth, 2.4 GHz wireless, or a USB-C cable. Keychron says the built-in batteries can deliver up to 300 hours of use on a single charge. The keyboard also supports an 8K polling rate in wired and 2.4 GHz modes for very fast input response.

The keyboard includes five extra macro keys on the left side along with two programmable knobs, one on each half of the keyboard. These knobs can be customised for different controls like volume, zoom, or scrolling.

Keychron has used CNC aluminium for the body, giving the keyboard a premium and solid build. It also comes with double-shot PBT keycaps in the company’s KSA profile. The keyboard is currently available in black with blue accent keycaps.

Buyers can choose between Keychron Silk POM Red linear switches, Brown tactile switches, or Banana tactile switches. The PCB also supports hot-swapping, allowing users to easily replace switches without soldering.

The keyboard features south-facing RGB lighting and full customisation support through Keychron Launcher software.

The Keychron Q11 Ultra is now available from Keychron’s online store for $239.99.
