This is a tangent, but I just looked at Keychron's website, and I don't know how someone is supposed to choose from all the models and options. And there seems not to be a "comparison" page on their site.

The KeyChron Discord has seen enough questions that it has many bot autoresponders to explain model differences. I thought the experience of selecting among the many very similar, poorly-named models was a frustrating slog, but it seems unlikely to change given that they sell out their production runs.
As long as you happen to quote it, I forgot a key sentence in my story: I placed my order with the official Keychron store and it was fulfilled by Amazon.
IIRC Q is the full-fat, fully programmable, hot-swappable top of the range. V is like Q but a bit more budget-friendly, may have plastic cases etc. K is their 'standard' range, some have hot-swappable switches, some don't, generally not programmable. C is budget K, wired only.
But then there's various pro, max, god knows what variants. It's a ludicrously wide product range.
All I can say for sure is I really like my K8.
