What will you mostly use it for?
The V6 Ultra leads for gaming, office use, programming, modding and content creation, largely because it combines a full-size layout with higher polling and additional controls. The Lemokey P1 Pro is the more compact choice, though its listed weight is higher. Both offer wireless connectivity and hot-swappable switches, so those shared traits do not decide the comparison. Consider the V6 Ultra’s south-facing LED keycap caveat, and the P1 Pro’s narrower listed regional layout availability.

- The V6 Ultra specifies an 8000 Hz polling rate, compared with 1000 Hz for the Lemokey P1 Pro.
