KEYCHRON Q19 HE 8K
Every mark in the aged finish gives the Keychron Q19 HE 8K a unique presence, with a collected, weathered character. Beneath its vintage-metal look, this compact 60% magnetic keyboard delivers an 8K polling rate, precise magnetic control, and a performance-driven experience for fast play and everyday use.
Essence
CRAFTSMANSHIP
Precision-Crafted Aluminum
The entire metal body is crafted from 6063 aluminum, a material known for its durability, stability, and premium feel. Its substantial weight anchors the keyboard, delivering a solid typing experience with minimal flex and movement. Aluminum is also environmentally friendly and recyclable.
Through 24 manufacturing processes, including CNC machining, polishing, anodizing, and sandblasting, the surface achieves enhanced hardness and resistance to wear and corrosion. Built to last, this keyboard pairs premium craftsmanship with everyday resilience.
Metal Aesthetics
Designed to Stand Apart
The aged finish brings a distinctive vintage aesthetic to the aluminum body, creating a weathered look. Paired with the Golden Compass patterns on the bottom and the special key legends, every element adds to the keyboard's unique character.
PRECISION
WIRED FOR 8K SPEED
In wired mode, the keyboard delivers an 8K polling rate, reporting your inputs up to 8,000 times per second for faster response and lower latency. Every keystroke feels more immediate and precise, giving you the responsiveness you need for fast-paced gaming where every millisecond counts.
POWERFUL CORE
An Epic Core Inside The Keyboard
Engineered with a powerful chip (MCU) with 1MB of flash, the Q19 HE 8K offers extensive flexibility for customization and advanced functionality. It achieves an ultra-responsive 8K polling rate and up to 256KHz single-key scanning rate, ensuring every keystroke is registered with near-zero latency and exceptional accuracy for the most demanding gaming and professional tasks.
Switches
Keychron Ultra-fast Lime Magnetic Switch
The Keychron Q19 HE 8K comes with pre-lubed Keychron Ultra-Fast Lime Magnetic Switches for a smooth, ultra-stable, and highly responsive typing experience. Made from premium POM, the switches deliver fast, precise input with a soft, satisfying feel and deep, thocky sound, making every keystroke more enjoyable.
MAGNETIC SWITCH
Adjustable ACTUATION POINT
Precision Down to 0.005mm
Tune every key to respond exactly how you want. Set the actuation point from 0.10 to 3.50 mm, with 0.01 mm sensitivity from 0.10 to 2.50 mm of travel, 0.005 mm from 2.51 to 3.50 mm of travel. Set a shallow point for faster responses, or a deeper one for more deliberate input.
MAGNETIC SWITCH
Last Key Priority (LKP) & Snap Click
LKP allows seamless directional changes by prioritizing the last key pressed, ensuring smoother gameplay in titles like Valorant. With Snap Click, deeper keypresses take precedence when two keys are hit at once, automatically resetting shallower presses.
*They are disabled by default, but you can easily enable them in our Launcher web app when needed.
MAGNETIC SWITCH
One Keystroke, Multiple Actions
Assign four actions to a single key based on the depth of your press. For example, lightly press a key to walk forward in a game, and press deeper to run. Additionally, releasing the key also supports two-stage settings. This allows for smoother, personalized combinations that can give you an edge in competitive gaming.
Magnetic Switch
Dynamic Rapid Trigger
Activate or deactivate keys based on how far they travel, not predefined points. This means immediate key reactions—press to activate, release to reset—allowing for faster, more precise keystrokes. In rapid gameplay, this translates to executing complex actions in real-time without delay, giving you a serious advantage during fast-paced sequences.
Magnetic Switch
Analog Mode
Experience the power of Analog Mode on your Q19 HE 8K, bringing game controller-like precision to your keyboard. This mode enables variable inputs instead of the usual on/off signals, letting you achieve more fluid and dynamic control.
With each keypress, the Q19 HE 8K detects how far you press, translating it into different speeds and intensities. Enjoy nuanced control and heightened responsiveness in racing games, sports simulations, and more.
LAUNCHER WEB Software
AI-enabled Web Software
With the Keychron Launcher web software, you can effortlessly remap keys, adjust actuation points, set the magnetic switches, and customize any macro command, shortcuts, or key combinations to enhance gaming or work efficiency.
The built-in AI assistant makes it even easier: just describe what you want in plain language, and it configures your keyboard automatically. Take control and optimize your productivity like never before.
Compact 60% Layout
More Room, More Character
The compact 60% layout keeps your essentials within reach and leaves more room for your mouse and other gear. Its distinctive design brings extra character to your desk, fitting naturally into both gaming setups and clean desktop workspaces.
Customize
Customize Every Part
To build a fully customizable keyboard, we designed every component for easy assembly. Therefore, you can customize and adjust each component as you wish.
Keycaps
Made from durable PBT with dye-sublimated legends, these Cherry profile keycaps offer a textured feel and a natural, comfortable typing experience.
Switches
The core magnetic component; allows you to fully personalize the actuation point
through contactless sensing.
Top case
A solid, premium aluminum body for a quieter, vibration-free typing experience.
Plate
It is solid and rigid with a certain degree of flexibility, delivering a balanced typing experience.
Sound Absorbing Foam
By absorbing echo and noise, the sound absorbing foam produces a cleaner typing sound.
PCB
The circuit board that registers keystrokes; hot-swappable versions allow easy switch changes.
EPDM FOAM
Made with soft EPDM foam that minimizes vibration and noise for a smoother, more cushioned typing experience.
Bottom Case PET Film
Fine-tunes the keyboard's acoustics by helping distribute sound within the case while adding an extra layer of protection to the bottom case.
Bottom Case

Compatibility
Switch easily between Windows & Mac systems
Effortlessly press "Fn" + "Caps Lock" for 3 seconds to switch between systems whenever you need.
Built around a Windows layout by default, the Q19 HE 8K stays fully compatible with macOS and includes an extra set of customized keycaps for macOS systems.
Durability
Cherry Profile Dye-sub Keycaps
Made from PBT with dye-sublimated legends, these keycaps offer a textured feel and refined aesthetic. The Cherry profile provides a natural, comfortable typing feel. Resistant to shine, PBT offers lasting durability and helps the keycaps maintain their texture and look over time.
CUSTOMIZE
Hot-swappable
Unlike mechanical switches, which depend on physical contact, Hall Effect magnetic switches use magnets to detect key presses. It is effortless to swap out the switches with other Keychron Ultra-Fast Lime Magnetic Switches. Choose from linear, tactile, or silent options to match your preferred typing feel.
Backlight
South-facing RGB LED Lights
The south-facing RGB LEDs are designed to better illuminate the keyboard from the typist's angle, even with the premium non-shine-through PBT keycaps installed. Choose from 22 types of backlight effects, or customize the lighting further with per-key RGB and mixed RGB effects.
