I have a Zoom65v2 that’s almost perfect but doesn’t support QMK so I’ve been shopping around and wanted to get the community’s opinions before making a decision.
My criteria:
- size: 60-65%
- firmware: QMK
- layout standard: ansi
- layout ergonomics: normal
- hot-swappable: required, my soldering days are behind me
- per-key RGB (QMK rgb_matrix) is a must have
- underlighting (QMK rgblight) would be a plus
The kprepublic bm60/bm68 and Tofu 60/65 (2.0) are currently at the top of my list. I have a bm40 that I could only love more if it had more code space.
(I’m selling the Zoom65v2 if anyone is interested.)
Seems like QMK can handle use over Bluetooth at 90 hertz polling, and configuration only while plugged in. None of the QMK Keychron boards seem to include a 2.4GHz dongle polling at the same 1000hz as the wired connection.
Okay, so you’re saying that the QMK keychron boards, when over Bluetooth, are a much higher latency than when plugged in.
Yes, though 90Hz is fine for general computing and non-enthusiast gaming. It also seems like some Keychrons may need to be configured in QMK to use the full 1000Hz in wired mode.
