Review on πŸ’» Perixx PERIBOARD-117 Wired USB Keyboard with Chiclet Big Print Keys in Black – Standard US Layout, Enhanced SEO by Joseph Harkins

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nice feeling, but the damn AltGr key doesn't work properly.

I like the feel of the keyboard. The AltGr and 5 keys are used to print the euro symbol. Can not be. When I press the combo or even the AltGr+Menu+5 keys, it still doesn't show a euro symbol. It doesn't do anything unless I'm in MSWord - when in Word it prints a page! I tried disabling AltGr to make it work like an Alt key, no fun. I press Shift + Ctrl at the same time, still no joy. I can't disable the broken AltGr key. I love the feel of the keyswitches (I'm kind of into mechanical KBs) and the square footage of this keyboard; I don't like the broken AltGr key. I asked a question, let's see what the company has to say. So far I'll return the keyboard if I can't get control of the AltGr key. If anything changes, for example if I get information on how to fix the AltGr issue, I'll post an update. C'est tout!

Pros
  • nice thing
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something
