Deal | Full metal Keychron Q1, Q5, and Q10 mechanical keyboards now selling at up to 62% off

Alongside Keychron's entry-level mechanical keyboards, the company's higher-end Q-series mechanical keyboards have also gone on sale on Woot, and the discounts are worth a look if you're building out a custom setup. The Q1, Q5, and Q10 models - each part of Keychron’s full aluminum, hot-swappable, and QMK/VIA-compatible lineup - are currently priced well below their usual range, with savings up to 62%.

At the top is the Keychron Q10, now going for $99.99 (57% off). This model (only available in Grey) uses the 75% Alice layout, designed mostly from an ergonomic standpoint with a split and slightly curved key alignment. The CNC-machined body is paired with a dual-gasket structure and silicone dampening, which reduces noise from metal impacts. A programmable rotary knob is also included, and the board supports full QMK/VIA mapping. South-facing RGB with over 22 effects is standard, and the pre-lubed Gateron G Pro Red switches can be easily swapped out with most MX-compatible 3-pin or 5-pin options. For a better insight, you can check out our detailed review of the Keychron Q13 Max, which has a similar build. 

The Keychron Q1 (Version 2) has also dropped to $79.99 (62% off). This 75% layout board gives you both compactness and function row usability, alongside a similar full-metal design and double-gasket build. Its VIA-compatible firmware allows for drag-and-drop remapping of every key - including macros - on Mac, Windows, or Linux. Inside, silicone pads and screw-in PCB stabilizers should improve acoustics and reduce wobble on larger keys. It comes pre-assembled and supports third-party stabilizers like Durock and Cherry, which makes it a solid platform if you're looking for further customization.

The heaviest of the bunch is the Keychron Q5, now available for $89.99 (58% off). It’s a compact 96% layout board that manages to keep the number pad and full arrow/navigation cluster while saving desk space. At over 2.3kg, it’s easily the most stable of the three. The steel plate and full aluminum body are paired with south-facing RGB, pre-lubed Gateron switches, and high-quality PBT keycaps in OSA profile. The Q5 also includes a Type-C cable, Type-A adapter, and supports hot-swapping without soldering - ideal for users wanting a near-full-size board without the footprint.

All three keyboards have full compatibility with macOS, Windows, and Linux out of the box, and are shipped fully assembled. If you’ve been looking to move into the custom keyboard scene, these Q-series deals offer solid value and future-proof flexibility.
