As Tom’s Guide reviews team’s resident leftie, it fell upon me to review the Keychron Q12 Max Southpaw. As a southpaw keyboard, the Q12 Max is intended to be ambidextrous, but suit left-handed users who would like to use their primary hand to punch a number pad. Keychron consistently makes some of the best mechanical keyboards, so how does the Q12 Max Southpaw hold up?
The open-source QMK firmware, double-gasket design, full-metal construction and PBT keycaps make for a highly functional mechanical keyboard with a satisfying typing experience. On top of its productivity prowess, the Q12 Max also looks and sounds delightful, with RGB panels and acoustic foam that elevates the sensory typing experience.
