Pros and Trade-offs

Your primary need dictates the choice. If you value a clean desk, need to switch between multiple devices, or prefer a softer, more cushioned typing sound, the Epomaker TH108's wireless features and gasket mount are compelling. If your priority is to deeply customize every keypress with open-source firmware, or you plan to mod the keyboard's physical components extensively, the Keychron V6's QMK/VIA support and screw-in stabilizer design are unmatched in this category.

Epomaker TH108

  • +Tri-mode connectivity (Bluetooth, 2.4GHz, wired) for flexible device pairing.
  • +Gasket mount design with a 5-layer sound dampening system for a softer typing feel.
  • +Large 8000mAh rechargeable battery for extended wireless use.
  • +Includes a 2-stage adjustable kickstand for multiple typing angles (6°, 8°, 10.5°).
  • +Offers pre-lubed silent linear switch options out of the box.

  • Uses plate-mounted stabilizers, which are less favored for modding than screw-in types.
  • Plastic plate may offer less rigidity than metal alternatives.
  • Wireless functionality and battery add to the complexity and potential points of failure.
  • Driver software is listed as web-based, which may require specific browser permissions.

Keychron V6

  • +Full QMK and VIA support for unparalleled key remapping and macro programming.

  • +Available in a barebones kit version for custom builds and supports an optional knob.

  • Heavier at 1350g, and the lack of a battery makes it less portable for wireless use.
  • Lower typing angle (4°) compared to the TH108's adjustable options.
  • Keycaps on the assembled version are not shine-through, which may limit RGB visibility.
