Keychron K2 Max QMK Review

Looking for a 75% keyboards? The Keychron K2 Max QMK comes in at $99.99 and has earned 4.6 stars across 6 Amazon reviews. That's enough data to take its #45 ranking (out of 46) seriously. It's not a top pick - there are higher-rated and better-value options in the category - but specific shoppers may still find it fits their needs.

The Mechanical switches define how this keyboard feels in use. Switch choice is personal - what feels great to one typist can feel wrong to another, so it's worth knowing what category these fall into before committing. In this price tier, you should expect aluminum top plates, doubleshot or PBT keycaps, and per-key RGB. If those aren't here, the price is hard to justify.

6.9/10

Functional, mid-pack option. Nothing wrong with it, but nothing pushing it above the better-ranked alternatives either.
