Epomaker TH108 vs Keychron V6Wireless Freedom vs Firmware Power

The Epomaker TH108 is specifically designed for wireless use. It supports Bluetooth, 2.4GHz wireless, and wired connections, and includes an 8000mAh battery. The Keychron V6 is a wired-only keyboard with no wireless capabilities.

Yes, but the method and depth differ significantly. The Keychron V6 supports full, open-source QMK and VIA firmware for deep, layer-based reprogramming. The Epomaker TH108 uses a proprietary web-based driver for remapping and macros, which may offer less flexibility than QMK.

The Epomaker TH108 is explicitly listed with silent linear switch options, such as the Sea Salt Silent switch. The Keychron V6 listing includes linear, tactile, and clicky switches, but does not specify a silent variant among its pre-built options.

The Keychron V6 has several mod-friendly features out of the box, like screw-in stabilizers and QMK support, making software and stabilizer mods straightforward. However, the Epomaker TH108 is a pre-built, gasket-mounted board with sound foam, which might require less initial work for a pleasant typing experience.

Both keyboards use PBT keycaps. The Epomaker TH108 uses Cherry profile, double-shot PBT keycaps. The Keychron V6 uses OSA profile (OEM height, SA shape), double-shot PBT keycaps, and includes separate keycap sets for Mac and Windows layouts.

Yes. The Keychron V6 listing includes Mac/Win support and comes with an additional set of keycaps specifically for macOS. It also features a system toggle switch to change between macOS and Windows key mappings.

The Epomaker TH108 uses a gasket mount system, where the plate is suspended on rubber gaskets for a softer, more flexible feel. The Keychron V6 uses a tray mount (or plate mount) design, where the plate is screwed directly into the case, resulting in a firmer, more rigid typing feel.

According to its vendor page, the Epomaker TH108 has a 2ms latency in wired mode and a 5ms latency in 2.4GHz wireless mode. Both it and the Keychron V6 have a 1000 Hz polling rate in their primary wired modes.

Yes. The Keychron V6 is available as a barebones kit, which includes the case, PCB with screw-in stabilizers, and steel plate, but excludes switches and keycaps. This is ideal for builders who want to choose their own components.

The Keychron V6 comes with screw-in PCB stabilizers, which are generally considered more stable and easier to tune than plate-mounted stabilizers. The Epomaker TH108 uses plate-mounted stabilizers, which are factory-lubed but are not compatible with PCB or screw-in stabilizers.

The Epomaker TH108 offers more adjustability with a 2-stage kickstand providing angles of 6°, 8°, and 10.5°. The Keychron V6 has a fixed, lower typing angle of 4°, with additional angles of 7.05° and 9.52° achieved by using its feet, according to its specs.

The Epomaker TH108 includes the keyboard, a 2.4GHz receiver, a USB A-to-C cable, a 2-in-1 keycap/switch puller, two extra switches, and a manual. The fully assembled Keychron V6 includes the keyboard, a Type-C cable, a Type-A to Type-C adapter, and keycaps for both Mac and Windows.
