X-Bows Crystal : quand le design haut de gamme rencontre l’ergonomie
Le X-Bows Crystal est conçu pour celles et ceux qui ne veulent pas choisir entre un design remarquable et le confort de frappe. Doté d’un boîtier transparent distinctif et d’une géométrie radiale en colonnes, le Crystal propose une disposition différente des claviers classiques et apporte une touche esthétique à votre espace de travail.
Connexion Bluetooth et USB-C
Libérez votre espace de travail. Connectez le clavier en Bluetooth 5.0 (jusqu’à cinq appareils) ou par USB-C. Passez de votre PC à votre Mac ou à votre tablette selon vos besoins.
Configurateur Web
Personnalisez l’affectation des touches, les macros et les couches de fonctions prises en charge grâce à une interface Web dédiée, sans logiciel à installer. Les paramètres peuvent être enregistrés sur le clavier pour une utilisation sur Linux, Windows et macOS.
Contrôle et fonctionnalités avancés
Les claviers traditionnels conservent souvent une disposition héritée des machines à écrire. Le X-Bows Crystal adopte au contraire une organisation des touches pensée autour du mouvement naturel des doigts :
Interrupteurs remplaçables à chaud : compatible avec les interrupteurs mécaniques à 3 et 5 broches. Adaptez la sensation de frappe sans soudure.
Micrologiciel et personnalisation des touches
Le X-Bows Crystal utilise un micrologiciel basé sur QMK et un configurateur Web dédié permettant de personnaliser les fonctions et dispositions de touches compatibles.
Remarque sur la compatibilité : le X-Bows Crystal n’est pas compatible avec le configurateur QMK standard, VIA ou VIAL. Utilisez le configurateur KeyboardLab dédié.
Précision de la disposition en colonnes : les colonnes radiales suivent la trajectoire naturelle des doigts pour limiter les mouvements latéraux inutiles.
S’habituer à une nouvelle disposition
S’adapter à une disposition différente peut prendre du temps. Votre vitesse de frappe peut diminuer au début. Le temps d’adaptation varie selon les personnes et leurs habitudes ; les touches centrales accessibles aux pouces demandent également une période de familiarisation.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I pair the X-Bows Crystal via Bluetooth?
+
The X-Bows Crystal supports Bluetooth 5.0 and can remember up to five paired devices, making it easy to switch between your computer, tablet, and smartphone.
To pair your Crystal via Bluetooth:
1. Turn on the keyboard and make sure it is in Bluetooth mode.
2. Press and hold Fn + 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 to enter pairing mode for the corresponding Bluetooth channel.
3. On your computer, tablet, or smartphone, open Bluetooth settings and search for available devices.
4. Select the X-Bows Crystal keyboard when it appears and follow any on-screen instructions to complete pairing.
5. Once connected, you can switch between previously paired devices using Fn + 1, Fn + 2, Fn + 3, Fn + 4, or Fn + 5.
The Crystal can remember up to five Bluetooth connections, although it operates with one selected device at a time. You can also connect it directly using a USB-C cable.
If you have customized your keyboard layout, the Bluetooth shortcut keys may differ from their default positions. Consult the Crystal user manual for additional pairing instructions.
Does the Crystal have Function (F1-F12) keys?
+
Yes. The X-Bows Crystal supports all standard function keys from F1 through F12, even though its compact 65% layout does not include a dedicated physical function-key row.
To access the function keys, hold down the right spacebar and press the corresponding number key:
Right Spacebar + 1 = F1
Right Spacebar + 2 = F2
Continue through F10, using the corresponding number-row keys according to the keyboard's default mapping.
The Crystal also supports programmable key layouts through its dedicated KeyboardLab web configurator, allowing you to customize supported key assignments and layers.
This compact design provides access to standard function-key commands without requiring a separate physical F-key row.
How do I customize the keys and lighting on the X-Bows Crystal?
+
The X-Bows Crystal uses QMK-based firmware with a dedicated KeyboardLab web configurator for personalizing its key layout and supported keyboard settings.
To customize your keyboard, connect your Crystal to your computer using a USB-C cable, then open the KeyboardLab Crystal Configurator in Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge. Follow the configurator's instructions to remap keys, adjust supported functions, and save your settings to the keyboard.
The Crystal also features RGB backlighting. You can adjust its supported lighting effects using the keyboard's built-in lighting controls or the options available in its configurator. Refer to the Crystal user manual for the available lighting modes and shortcuts.
Important: X-Bows Crystal does not support the standard QMK Configurator, VIA, or VIAL. Always use the dedicated KeyboardLab interface for software customization.
Is the X-Bows Crystal hot-swappable?
+
Yes. The X-Bows Crystal ergonomic mechanical keyboard features hot-swappable switches, allowing you to replace compatible mechanical switches without soldering.
The Crystal supports both 3-pin and 5-pin MX-style mechanical switches, giving you flexibility to experiment with different switch types, including linear, tactile, and clicky switches.
Hot-swapping makes it easier to personalize your typing experience, replace a faulty switch, or try switches with different actuation forces and tactile characteristics.
To replace a switch, first disconnect the keyboard from USB power and turn it off. Carefully remove the keycap and existing switch using appropriate puller tools, then align the replacement switch's pins with the socket before gently pressing it into place.
Always check switch compatibility and pin alignment before installation to avoid damaging the hot-swap sockets.
