Apparently random circuits go out which affect a number of keys accross the keyboard.I've thrown 2 out from keys dying, and 1 needs to be thrown out because 80% of the keys have no markings. I've used these keyboards for about 5 years now. Best keyboard feel I've ever used.Īdditional program buttons and customizable buttons is nice.Ĭons: Reliability. Overall Review: You'll never use another. I use the F keys as F keys, not as the alternate functions, so I'd prefer the F label to be on top of the key instead of the front, to make it easier to read.Īlso, the number 6 key is on the left hand, which is a change that took some getting used to. The mute and calculator keys are handy (reassign the calc to a better program), but I only occasionally remember to use the other keys up top. I don't use the new keys above the numeric pad, just out of lack of habit, but I love that the six insert/home/etc keys are in the standard configuration (some extended keyboards are rotating the arrangement). Whether you use anything else, the key press alone is reason enough to use this. Your fingers will literally feel like they are gliding as you type. But beyond the ergonomics, the key pressing is so smooth, it's amazing. The downward angle keeps my wrists straight, the palms rests are comfortable, and now I use the little back key in front as a habit - can't go back. I have a bit of carpal tunnel, and have used a split keyboard for years. Pros: This is by far the best keyboard I have ever used. If you do a lot of typing, you owe it to your wrists and hands to try this thing out. Construction quality isn't bad, and the keyboard seems durable, but I do worry that the rubber domes will wear out faster than I would like them to. However, I have always had issues with function keys, and I did not purchase this keyboard for the function keys. And still, they only work on the rarest of occasions. The keyboard has a lot of function keys, but I had a rather difficult time actually getting them to work. It took me a while to get used to the keyboard, but I now really like it. Rather than being raked toward you, the keys slope down as you go up the keyboard. It feels very natural to rest your hands on. In terms of ergonomics, this keyboard is really nice.
I was not expecting much from it, but I ended up being pleasantly surprised. At normal price, it is still a pretty good deal. Overall Review: I got this keyboard at a greatly reduced price as a Shell Shocker deal. Cons: - Difficult to get Function Keys to work
