“I wish that the "launcher" app had more layer options and more layer options for the RGB, but that's ok. I have a Moonlander as well and I recommend the Q11 to almost everyone, the ortholinear boards take a lot of relearning for most people to type on.”

“Keycaps are dyesub, but still PBT Tactile switches feature a proper tactile feeling with great typing experience The case feels and looks really premium layer activation could be nicer but in the end you just gotta get used to the board”
