Review on Macally Ultra Slim Computer Keyboard ACEKEY by Jeff Labore

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The key alignment is misaligned.

WARNING: The alignment of the Ctrl, Option, and Command keys is offset compared to all other keyboards. On the left, the right edge of the Command key should match the right edge of the X key, it doesn't - it's about 1/4 - 1/3 the width of the key on the right, and the Control and Option keys are also too wide on the right and do not line up properly with the keys above. The same issue is mirrored on the right. This leads to errors and I have to constantly adjust the position of my fingers as I often jump from desktop to laptop during the day. I could forgive any other issues, but the key focus is the headache. Bad design! UPDATE: I thought I could adapt to this keyboard's weird key layout, but I couldn't. My muscle memory is used to a keyboard where the keys are properly spaced, and I find myself cramming my fingers into odd positions and making lots of typos. I hate this keyboard with the fire of a million suns. i will return it

Pros
  • KEYS WITH SHORTCUTS AND TEN-KEY NUMBER KEYPAD: With 20 Apple keyboard shortcuts, this is the perfect alternative to a Mac keyboard. In addition, multimedia shortcuts for Windows PCs give you full control over your input.
Cons
  • Can I add something
