keychron build quality issues

My first keyboard is the Q1 and this happened today after a week of use.

then I found out this spacebar is a seesaw

should I return for another Q1 or this is normal?

I have experienced something similar to this with my KBD67 Lite, the cause for this (in my situation) was the wire popping out of the stem on the most affected side, if you open up the keyboard and just put the wire back into the stabilizer housing/stem this will likely fix it although it may come back if the stab housing is worn down. Overall this should be relatively easy to do since it is a hot-swap keyboard and there is a screwdriver included. The reason it is a seesaw is because once the wire is popped out the stem on the affected side is higher than the one on the other side causing the effect you see.

And if one wire is loose why not two?  Remove the Enter keycap and check that one too.

Also you may be able to pop the wire back in if you have enough clerance from outside, usually you;ll have enough clerance to place the wire back in the right place and push it again with a flat screwdriver or something alike.

Pretty sure these boards use plate mount stabs. Should be easy just to pop it out and then put it back together and click it back in.

keychron's other models do but the Q1/Q2 use screw in's, they should include the black gateron ones and if you got the Q2/Knob Q1 you get the bright green gateron stabs. although it won't matter anyway since you are just popping the wire back in
