“The Q7 is unconventional, compact, and surprisingly usable once you give it a little time. It feels solid and intentional, not experimental. A great option if you like smaller layouts but still want something different. The layout is what stands out…”

“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”
