Keychron has announced the Q0 HE, a wireless standalone numpad that brings Hall effect and TMR sensor technology to a compact accessory format. The new model is part of the company’s Q HE lineup and is designed to pair with smaller keyboards while keeping the same build quality and feature set found across the series.
The Q0 HE differs from a typical numpad by adding extra programmable controls. Along the left side is a vertical column with five macro keys and a rotary knob, while a row of customizable keys sits above the main numpad area. This layout is aimed at users who rely on a numpad for work but also want quick-access controls for gaming, editing, or shortcuts, without moving to a larger full-size keyboard.
In terms of hardware, the Q0 HE matches the rest of the Q HE series. It uses Gateron Double-Rail magnetic Nebula switches paired with an e-coated aluminum chassis and double-shot PBT keycaps in Keychron’s OSA profile. The internal structure includes a Poron foam gasket mount and additional case foams to reduce noise and vibration. Firmware support is provided through QMK, with configuration handled via the Keychron Launcher.
The Hall effect design allows for adjustable actuation distance and features such as Rapid Trigger, DKS, SOCD, and analog input. Macro support and layered key mapping make it possible to switch between productivity-focused layouts and gaming setups on the same device.
Connectivity options include USB-C, 2.4 GHz wireless, and Bluetooth. Both USB-C and 2.4 GHz modes support a 1,000 Hz polling rate, while Bluetooth operates at 90 Hz. Power is supplied by a 1,800 mAh battery, which Keychron rates for up to 56 hours of use with backlighting disabled.
The Keychron Q0 HE is now available from the Keychron online store for $139.99. It comes in black and white color options. The black version ships with white keycaps on the main numpad and black keycaps on the macro column, while the white version features matching white keycaps with dark green accent keys on the macro side.
