A keyboard with a flat-or even negative-slope is ergonomically ideal, but such keyboards are not common. That is, straight and level,” said Alan Hedge, professor and director of Cornell University’s Human Factors and Ergonomics Research Group at the time of our interview. “To minimize the risk of injury and to optimize performance, it is important that a keyboard can be used with the hand in its most neutral position. But using a keyboard in that position causes wrist extension. Most keyboards are angled upward from front to back, and some have little feet to angle the keyboard even further.

Wireless keyboards for mac mini Bluetooth#
If you want a number pad with full-size arrow keys and a navigation cluster, get the Satechi Bluetooth Extended Keypad. The Microsoft Number Pad is sturdy and enjoyable to type on, and it’s the only model we tested that can pair with up to three Bluetooth devices and switch between them. If you don’t use a number pad frequently but do need one sometimes, we recommend using the K380 or MX Keys Mini with a standalone number pad. But the K780 lacks backlighting, and there’s no Mac-layout version. The K780 also adds a built-in stand for smartphones and tablets, and it comes with a Unifying USB wireless dongle. Overall, the K780 is very similar to the K380-it has round keys, it can pair with and switch between up to three devices via Bluetooth, and it has the same long battery life, software, and warranty. The Logitech K780 Multi-Device Wireless Keyboard is the best choice if you want a keyboard with a number pad that’s more compact than a traditional full-size model like the MX Keys. My goodness this thing makes me happy.15 by 12.3 inches from 0.3 to 0.9 inch tall

It does have the goofy gaudy backlights of your typical "gamer" keyboard, can be turned off by holding fn-minus for a few seconds. (oh yeah, removable/replaceable cable! no bluetooth, but I loathe wireless keyboards) Slim, short height, but solid - feels like it's going to last a decade. My fingers feel like they're dancing across the damn thing.

It's basically a mechanical keyboard for people who prefer laptop keyboards, the best of both worlds. The Havit KB395-L is a compact mechanical keyboard with an unusually shallow key depth. It's so freaking nice to type on that I almost want to just work from home all day. This topic is so subjective… but I wanna give a shout-out to this mechanical keyboard that I bought last weekend.
