Freestyle Edge RGB Plus Split Mechanical Keyboard

Going to a full split keyboard where you can adjust how far apart your hands are is the right way to go! NocFree Lite/&, Keychron Q11, Keeb.io's Sinc/Quefrency, Epomaker Split65/Split70, GMK70, Kinesis Freestyle Edge RGB+ (skip the Freestyle 2), Royal Kludge RKS70, UHK, Dygma Raise 2, and there are

If your goal is to get keyboard that provides some legit ergonomic value skip Alice layout boards and other one-piece keyboards like mWave, etc... just get a full split. Here are a couple row-staggered split options: NocFree Lite/&, Keychron Q11, Keeb.io's Sinc/Quefrency, Epomaker Split65/Split70, G

This subreddit isn't too interested in the kind of boards you are listing, so you might not get a lot of valuable advice here. If you were to say that you were considering Corne, Sofle, Totem, ZSA Voyager, Kinesis Freestyle EDGE, Keychron Q11 or other fully split boards that are approximate 60% or l

As for many, my hands and wrists hurt, and I could tell that my keyboard (and mouse) were contributing. I’m a hazardous waste inspector, so I’m writing reports and using Excel mostly.

But just be aware that although smartset has lots of options it is also annoyingly limited. Limited in that I think it actively res

I was in a similar spot a couple years ago and I got a Kinesis freestyle edge, which is somewhat similar to the Q11 in terms of layout and number of keys. It solved my minor pain permanently. There was a small learning curve (1-2 weeks) but it didn’t slow me down too much at the time. No learning ho

I fully agree with u/Scatterthought that something like the q11 would be the easiest transition. my first split keyboard was a kinesis freestyle edge, relatively similar to the keychron q11, and i was very happy i went with it for a couple of years. at least for me the biggest ergo benefit was the s

If you're really serious about gaming, theres definitely something to be said about not using custom keyboards. My Kinesis Freestyle Edge despite being marketed as a wired gaming keyboard has a latency of at least 14 ms according to RTings (https://www.rtings.com/keyboard/reviews/kinesis/freestyle-e
