Save $48: Amazon’s October Prime Day sale is already heating up with tons of early deals, including a major discount on the Keychron Q1 HE. The Q1 HE is a unique, customizable keyboard with magnetic switches, and it just dropped back to its all-time low price of $192.

That’s a $48 discount off its list price, and the same deal that we saw during the summer Prime Day event and last year’s Black Friday sale.

Keychron Q1 HE

$192 (original price: $240)

This 82-key wireless QMK keyboard features Hall Effect Gateron 2.0 magnetic switches. You can use the Keychron Launcher web app to customize your keyboard by setting up macros, adjusting settings and configuring the magnetic switches. The magnetic switches let you adjust the actuation points, or the sensitivity of the keys and assign multiple actions to a single key.

In his Keychron Q1 HE review, PCMag’s Francisco Lahoz called the Q1 HE a “refreshing example of what fine-tuning an already excellent design can achieve.” He noted that the addition of magnetic switches elevated the keyboard beyond the original Q1, while maintaining the “solid aluminum frames and striking color schemes”.

Snag the Keychron Q1 HE on sale now for $192, and be sure to check out the rest of our October Prime Day coverage. We’ve found deals on headphones, laptops and more.
 

Alternatives to consider

If you’d prefer a full-size layout over the Keychron Q1 HE’s 82-key layout, the Keychron Q6 HE is also on sale for Prime Day. It still has the magnetic switches and aluminum-body design, but comes with the full number pad. You can get it for $230 right now — a $20 discount on its $250 list price.
