43 grams on the spec sheet, 44 on our own scale. We tested the Keychron G5 Ultra Light: the PixArt PAW3950 sensor, genuine 8000Hz with no wireless compromise, the battery under load, the software, and how it plays in CS2.
If I had to buy one magnetic keyboard for CS2 today, I would still start with the Wooting 60HE v2. But Keychron Q1 HE 8K and Logitech G Pro X TKL Rapid both deserve serious context.
Keychron Q1 HE 8K bridges two worlds: the speed of magnetic switches and the build quality of a heavy aluminum custom board. I tested how this 8000 Hz polling rate model with Ultra-Fast Lime switches performs in CS2 and daily typing.
