PERIBOARD-512 Ergonomic Split Keyboard, Curved Design, Wired USB, Multimedia Keys, UK QWERTY Layout, Black

Perfect keyboard to replace my more expensive MS split one. This is a QWERTY keyboard with UK layout, as in, the 'at' key, (symbol @) is in the normal place- centre row, third key from right. The keys make a noise when you press them, so if you want silent keys, don't get this keyboard. Wrist rest is hard plastic but is angled to make hands and wrists feel comfortable and the plastic of the entire keyboard is the same - as in, keys, wrist rest and frame - and is smooth to the touch. All keys are at the right angle to use The Home, End Delete keys etc, are vertical in two columns of three keys each, as opposed to three columns of two keys each, as on standard keyboards and so take a bit of getting used to - I've pressed page up instead of end, by accident a few times. Overall, I am keeping this keyboard as it is the cheapest split keyboard I can find, and it feels very comfortable to use for 'on and off' typing like browsing, shopping, emails etc. I have not typed for hours yet, so cannot comment on that. Was using this for a while before I noticed it has two feet underneath to raise up the keyboard, but I find it too high, so I leave it flat. Plastic of this keyboard feels warm after a while, so helps with my cold hands!!

A good quality and comfortable keyboard

The big advantage of this sort of key board is that your arms can come in at more natural angles without you having to parallelise them in order to line up with the typical keyboard. The keyboard feels pretty good to use. It has feet at the back so that you can raise the rear if you so wish. There are LEDs to show Caps, Num and Scroll Locks, though because they are set deep inside the casing they don't show up very well. The keyboard is the same length as the typical keyboard. Because the main key section is splayed out, and the numeric keypad is the usual sort of size, there is less room for the middle set of keys. The arrow keys are therefore in a star-shape (as opposed to the usual T-shape), and the Delete, Insert, End etc keys are in a 2x3 arrangement as opposed to the usual 3x2. This takes some getting used to. It's perhaps a shame that they don't put foldable legs at the front of the keyboard so that it can be raised and thus slope away from you. For many years I've had a Microsoft ergonomic keyboard. The front of the keyboard could be raised,so that your hands sat at a more natural drooping angle. Overall, a nice keyboard, good value.

This is my second perixx ergonomic keyboard. My first one lasted five years. It would have lasted longer if they could have made it gin and tonic proof. It seems that if you pour a g&t over it it stops working. Good grief who'd have thought it. With the replacement I went for the white one. It doesn't type any better but it looks good on the desk. All in all it is a good well made keyboard and is very comfortable to use. It fits the angle of the hands so there is no strain. It isn't noisy but there is definite resistance which I like. I am very happy with this keyboard, (actually I was very happy with the last one when it was gin free), highly recommended.

I'm very pleased with my purchase because this keyboard is very close to what I wanted which was a white true UK layout keyboard with the £ sign. A lot of UK layout keyboards advertised do not have the £ sign above the no 3 (they have a hash tag instead) but I messaged the seller who came back to me in an hour and confirmed it did along with another kind Amazon purchaser afterwards. It took 5 goes to get used to the ergonomic keyboard and it does feel strange at first but pleasantly getting used to it and the feel is much better than a normal keyboard because your elbows aren't squeezed into your sides so you're more relaxed with reduced tension going through your arms and into your shoulders. I wanted the 'old school' high profile keys and these go about 3 quarters up in height to what I like but they don't seem to manufacture any more. With this keyboard you still get that feeling. If you use the keyboard level your fingers and hands angle slighly downwards but I use mine with the legs up so the keyboard is level. A nice big hand rest, again getting used to this as it looks very big but is surprisingly comfortable. When you type the sound of the keys is between a clunk and a click and is medium noise level. I've been typing on different keyboards for 40 years and can honestly say I'm very pleased with my purchase because the layout is very similar to my last keyboard and is excellent value for money. It also works perfectly by the way... Happy days!

IT WAS A NICE LOOKING KEYBOARD, just what I wanted to replace my old MSoft ergonomic 4000 which was having trouble with the functions keys not working but it was 15years old. Alas the perixx 612 would not connect with my Bluetooth, it was listed as unknown device also it was not a UK Qwerty keyboard layout, it looked the same but the At @ key came up with a different symbol, plus the # showed a quotation mark I did not check the rest. But just returned for a refund. Shame as I liked it the white one was a nice change from black.

I purchased the Perixx PERIBOARD-512 Ergonomic Split Keyboard October 2022 for work and it is still going strong almost three years later. It is suitable for office, plug and play, and is of a 'standard keyboard quality'. It did not take me long to adjust to the split keyboard layout

I like the layout and size. My only criticism is the feel of the keys, as there isn't quite enough positive feedback and they feel a little "light", a little plasticky. But the keyboard is fine for typing at a decent speed (40-50 wpm), light gaming etc and the keys register correctly when pressed. The shape of the keyboard is comfortable and eases wrist strain. Very good for the price and no problems so far.

As it is adapted into Swedish it is a bit difficult as the letters and symbols do not always match what actually is written.

Waited for weeks as it was coming from overseas. Excitement became disappointment when found out USB receiver was missing. But then I found it on my floor, it was not securely attached to the USB storage place. So excitement came back. Then I turned it on and used it, the user experience was like using a clunky cheap piece of KB plastic. Returned it, for this price I expected a bit more less cheap plastic feel.

Musste sie zurück schicken, wegen falscher Tastatur Belegung. Aber ansonsten war sie sehr gut.
