Keychron V5 Max [V1 Max, V2 Max, etc.]
GravaStar Mercury K1
The Keychron V1 Max and the GravaStar Mercury K1 are 75%, wireless mechanical keyboards. The Keychron has a plastic case and a much more conventional aesthetic, but it has a much quieter sound profile. It's also part of a wider lineup with many size variants available and multiple switch options at purchase. The GravaStar has comparatively more premium build quality, with an aluminum outer frame. It also has better typing quality, with a softer gasket-mounted design and much more consistent stabilizers. However, it's only available as a 75% model and doesn't have multiple switch options at purchase.
