Smaller right shift key no problem

I am very happy with this keyboard. I was concerned about several things. - Small right shift key. - Key feel (some reviews called them soft) - Key sound None of these things turned out to be a problem. I hated the Lenovo Yoga 910's little right shift key that I had to use. But this key is big enough and well placed. I have big hands and a long pinky, but my right pinky lands right in the middle of that shift key. I like the feel of the keys. That's slightly more than most Ultrabooks and slightly less than most full-size desktop keyboards. I think that's just the right amount. I don't find them "soft" either. I used to use a soft keyboard. It's not like this. I also think the keys have a nice stopping point, closer to the end of their travel. While these keys are not as quiet as most laptop keys, they are not as loud as most budget keyboards. What I like: - Good layout - Main navigation keys (home, end, page up, page down) - Insert and delete keys - Volume up, down and mute keys (with Fn key) - I really like the num lock key and built-in numeric keypad under the fingers of the right hand. I don't need a number pad often, but it's nice to have one when I need one.
