This is a fantastic upgrade for the Advantage1 keyboard.

I'm a programmer and spend all day with a keyboard and mouse. Years ago I experienced RSI symptoms that prompted me to take a closer look at keyboards. Most keyboards that come with computers are junk. After a few months, you can easily press the keys with a straight up and down motion, but if you try to press the key at an oblique angle, things can get very tight. The keys you press with your outer fingers are the worst, as you often press them at an angle. If you're not careful, you'll hit…

Pros
  • Availability
Cons
  • Doubt

The keyboard is excellent, but not for small hands

Ergonomic solution. My hands are tiny so it wasn't very good to work with. I ended up just tensing my fingers in new and unusual ways. It's a solid keyboard, it doesn't make any loud clicks, it uses just the right amount of pressure, and it even has little rubber feet to keep it from moving and scratching things. .Even the 10 key feature was well worked out and it was the least difficult learning curve lol. There is a learning curve, but it is not difficult for any good typist to overcome…

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • Nothing special, everything is good

Is it worth? suitable for computers and accessories

When I first received the keyboard, there was a disclaimer on the box that said "WARNING! This product is not intended for treatment." You know ergonomics is important when a keyboard needs a disclaimer! HA HAO My original search for a keyboard was driven by the need for ergonomic support for my wrists, hands, and thumbs. But for over 300€? After years of working on other keyboards the aches and pains got to be too much. I've had this keyboard for a few months now and have no regrets for paying

Pros
  • All right!
Cons
  • Blank
