The Keychron V3 Max QMK/VIA Wireless Mechanical Keyboard is built for enthusiasts who demand both performance and customization in a compact form. Featuring an 80% TKL layout, it strikes the perfect balance between functionality and desk space, offering a full set of keys without the bulk of a numpad. Its gasket mount design and ABS plastic body with a PC plate deliver a stable yet cushioned typing feel, while the hot-swappable design supports most 3-pin and 5-pin MX-style mechanical switches, giving you endless customization options.
Connectivity is seamless with triple-mode support: 2.4GHz wireless, Bluetooth 5.1, and USB Type-C wired. With a 1000Hz polling rate in wired and 2.4GHz modes, and 90Hz in Bluetooth, the V3 Max ensures ultra-low latency and high responsiveness across gaming, productivity, or creative tasks. You can connect and switch between up to three devices effortlessly, making it ideal for those who work or play across multiple platforms.
Typing comfort and visual appeal are at the forefront with OSA double-shot PBT keycaps, designed for durability and a premium texture. Paired with south-facing RGB backlighting, users enjoy vibrant lighting effects without interference when using custom keycap sets. The Gateron Jupiter RED switches included in the fully assembled version offer smooth actuation with a tactile bump, while screw-in PCB stabilizers ensure a quieter and more stable typing experience.
The 4000mAh rechargeable Li-polymer battery delivers up to 190 hours of use with backlighting off, or up to 100 hours with RGB on its lowest brightness, ensuring long-lasting performance. With QMK/VIA support, users have full control to program macros, remap keys, and customize lighting to suit their workflow. Compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux, the Keychron V3 Max is a versatile powerhouse that combines modern wireless technology, premium build quality, and limitless customization.
