I'm looking for a more ergo keyboard and am looking at the Keychron Q10 (Alice) or Q11 (split), but I'm leaning more towards to the Q11:

  • Extra rotary encoder in the top-right
  • Don't need an extra "B" key
  • 2 extra keys to the right of the right spacebar

Let me know what you think about the 11 when you get it!

So far pretty great! Split is great, I wish there was a better way to connect the two halfs, the extra cable clutters up my desk. Solid build quality, pretty heavy. The keycaps are already getting a bit shiny after just a couple weeks of use, which is disappointing. I went with the brown switches that have a very subtle tactile bump, but are actually much quieter than the liners I had on my k4. The two knobs are great, but I only end up using the right one 90% of the time. Macro buttons are super useful, I wish 8 could find a nice relegendable keycap for them though. Overall about a 8/10.
