Keychron V1 Max (wireless 75%)
The V1 Max keeps the V1's hot-swappable QMK/VIA 75% layout but adds 2.4GHz and Bluetooth wireless, landing it in the enthusiast tier. It's the pick when you want the V1's customizability without a cord. On the tightest budget, the wired V1 covers the same customization for less, so the wireless premium is the deciding factor.
