Review on ๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ Logitech Ergo K860 Wireless Ergonomic Keyboard with Wrist Rest - Split Layout, Windows/Mac Compatible - Bluetooth/USB Connectivity (Renewed) by Nigel Cohen

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good ergonomics, but the auxiliary keys are a bit cramped

Bought to replace the MS Natural 4000 keyboard, which I really liked, but after many years of use, the key stopped working. Due to the need for a replacement I decided to switch to a wireless device - otherwise I would have gotten another of the same kind. There is a big difference between the K860's chiclet-style keys and the MS Natural keyboard, giving me some time to get used to the reduced key travel. I feel like this keyboard takes a bit more effort to activate the keys, which isn't ideal for an ergonomic keyboard. However, I think this keyboard could have a little more flex, opening the wrists a little more, which is good in terms of ergonomics. The only thing I don't like about this keyboard is its narrowness. The kys functions are smaller and are pressed near the number keys, while the number pad and other special function keys are pressed near the right side of the keyboard. I'm not sure why they decided to put everything on a desktop keyboard. Sure, with function keys, you'd think people could reach them without lifting their wrist, but I think even people with long fingers would still need it. and there is no doubt that you will have to raise and move your hand for the number pad. I've only been using it for a few hours, so I can't comment on battery life or signal strength. Although I had no problem with the answer. I've been using Logitech wireless mice for a while, so I feel pretty comfortable with their wireless technology. a bit too wide - my left hand tends to "head over" properly, with my index finger sitting on "F", but then my right hand is too far to the right, with my index finger two keys from home on the "L" key sits on it, not the "J" key. Therefore, the ergonomics of this keyboard could be improved.

Pros
  • Large selection
