Know before you buy
The Alice layout features a split, ergonomic design that angles the keys to follow the natural position of your hands and wrists. This helps reduce strain during long typing sessions by minimizing ulnar deviation.
Yes, the V10 Max features hot-swappable sockets. This allows you to remove and replace the mechanical switches without any soldering, making it easy to customize the feel and sound of your typing experience.
The 2.4 GHz connection uses an included USB receiver to provide a faster, more stable 1000 Hz polling rate, which is ideal for gaming. Bluetooth 5.1 is more convenient for multi-device pairing across laptops and tablets but may have slightly higher latency.
Yes, the V10 Max includes a physical toggle switch to swap between Windows and macOS layouts. It also comes with dedicated keycaps for both operating systems to ensure the legends match your setup.
QMK and VIA allow you to remap any key, create complex macros, and customize the RGB lighting effects. These settings are saved directly to the keyboard's onboard memory, so your layout remains consistent even when you plug it into a different computer.
No, the V10 Max does not include a palm rest. Given the ergonomic Alice layout, you may find that adding a compatible split-style wrist rest improves your comfort, though it is not strictly required for use.
