Kinesis<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>If you work at a computer all-day, RSI (repetitive strain injury) and other related injuries are a major concern. Taking breaks helps, but if you want to take further steps to avoid these issues, then an ergonomic keyboard can save your wrists from more permanent damage.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, the keyboard is only half the battle when it comes to these issues. While we\u2019re solely focusing on ergonomic keyboards in this article, ergonomic mice are\u00a0also extremely important when it comes to avoiding injury.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_to_Look_for_in_an_Ergonomic_Keyboard\"><\/span>What to Look for in an Ergonomic Keyboard<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are a few things to keep in mind when comparing various ergonomic keyboards.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Design:\u00a0<\/strong>There\u2019s more than one way to make a keyboard ergonomic. Some angle the keyboard away from you, putting the wrist in a more natural position, others curve the entire keyboard to prevent a lot of finger <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/trip-and-travel\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"10\" title=\"Trip &amp; Travel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">travel<\/a> (how much your fingers have to move around to hit certain keys), and some are split right down the middle to enable more freedom in where you place your hands. All of these designs have their benefits, with various learning curves attached to them. The curved design of something like our first pick, the Logitech K860\u00a0is the easiest to learn and most natural if you\u2019re new to ergonomic keyboards.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Wired or Wireless:\u00a0<\/strong>Having one fewer wire on your desk is great, especially if you\u2019re into cable management. But that doesn\u2019t mean wireless is always better\u2014when you\u2019re working with a wireless keyboard, latency can be an issue (but that\u2019s mostly just for gaming) along with the need to recharge the battery. Most of the keyboards on this list are wired, so we\u2019ll be sure to make special note of the wireless options and their battery lives when they come up.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Switch Type:\u00a0<\/strong>Whether it\u2019s mechanical, membrane, rubber domes, or scissor switches, they all offer different typing experiences. Mechanical switches are loved for the variation between different switch types, but they\u2019re also the most expensive option out of the bunch. Membrane, rubber domes, and scissor switches are all fairly inexpensive and, when done right, can still deliver quality typing experiences.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Customizability:\u00a0<\/strong>Ergonomic keyboards tend to have some pretty strange layouts. You may be forced into changing up your muscle memory because a certain key has been moved drastically compared to normal keyboards. Fortunately, a good chunk of the ergonomic options out there have great reprogramming tools, so you can make the layout whatever you want. It\u2019s especially great if you want to make more drastic changes, such as switching to something like the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/189270\/alternative-keyboard-layouts-explained-dvorak-colemak-and-whether-you-should-care\/\">DVORAK layout.<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Best_for_Most_People_Logitech_Ergo_K860\"><\/span>Best for Most People: Logitech Ergo K860<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_64339\" style=\"width: 1600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-64339 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/thumbcache\/0\/0\/ed6511fcda9431648d2f8a33f83264b1\/p\/uploads\/2020\/12\/f3ccdd27-6.jpg\" alt=\"Logitech K860 Keyboard\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" data-credittext=\"Logitech\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Logitech<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>When it comes to ergonomic keyboards, the K860 is one of our favorites for its curved shape and comfortable wrist rest. It\u2019s the standard QWERTY layout spread out across a curvy board that raises certain keys, so you can avoid stretching your fingers too far. Thanks to the adjustable feet below the wrist rest, you can angle the keyboard in one of three angles: 0 degrees, -4 degrees, and -7 degrees. These feet angle the board away from you, so your wrists aren\u2019t pointed upwards while typing.<\/p>\n<p>The K860 provides great ergonomic benefits without requiring you to spend weeks learning a new layout\u2014which is good because it\u2019s lacking any reprogramming features. And the two-year-long battery life (with a pair of AAA batteries), wireless connection, and quality scissor switches\u00a0only make the K860 an even better board.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Another_Great_Choice_Microsoft_Sculpt_Ergonomic_Keyboard\"><\/span>Another Great Choice: Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic Keyboard<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_64340\" style=\"width: 1600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-64340 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/thumbcache\/0\/0\/4425b6c477fc46b4d2ac87ca850020c0\/p\/uploads\/2020\/12\/x156005c5-6.jpg.pagespeed.gp+jp+jw+pj+ws+js+rj+rp+rw+ri+cp+md.ic.EeS9_Go0t9.jpg\" alt=\"Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic Keyboard\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" data-credittext=\"Microsoft\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Microsoft<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Microsoft has been making ergonomic keyboards for a while now, and the latest iteration keeps the great ergonomics of past boards while adding a detached Numpad. Having the Numpad separate not only saves space for those who don\u2019t need it but also means you can place it wherever you wish (for example, putting it on the left side of the board, so the right side is freed up for more mouse movement).<\/p>\n<p>The cushioned, non-detachable wrist-rest is comfortable and helps make sure your wrists are positioned properly along with the feet that angle the board away from you. The layout remains faithful to the QWERTY boards you\u2019re used to while still making slight adjustments to improve ergonomics, and the scissor switches under each keycap feel great to type on. This is a wireless board and you can expect the two AAA batteries to last about a year.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_Good_Budget_Option_Microsoft_Ergonomic_Keyboard\"><\/span>A Good Budget Option: Microsoft Ergonomic Keyboard<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_64341\" style=\"width: 1600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-64341 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/thumbcache\/0\/0\/d0e9c2b160db282ad89e24de27947c9b\/p\/uploads\/2020\/12\/799bad5a-5.jpg\" alt=\"Microsoft Ergonomic Keyboard\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" data-credittext=\"Microsoft\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Microsoft<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>If you\u2019re on a tight budget but still want those ergonomic gains, the mundanely named Microsoft Ergonomic Keyboard should deliver on what you\u2019re looking for despite the low price tag.

This is a wired, mechanical board split in two with nothing but a cable connecting the halves. This fluid ergonomic design enables you to place your hands wherever you wish while typing, giving you a greater level of freedom when it comes to how your arms and wrists are positioned. You can even reprogram all the keys on the board using the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/kinesis-ergo.com\/programmable-keyboards\/\">SmartSet app<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>You can pick up an <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Accessory-Freestyle2-Ergonomic-Keyboard-Supports\/dp\/B008BVNQW4?ref_=ast_sto_dp&amp;tag=reviewgeek-20\">accessory kit<\/a> from Kinesis as well, which includes adjustable feet for each half of the board along with nice cushioned palm pads for added comfort. You also have your choice when it comes to what mechanical switches are on your Freestyle Pro: Cherry MX Browns (which have a satisfying tactile bump) or Cherry MX Quiet Reds (smooth, linear switches with an emphasis on cutting down the noise).<\/p>\n<p>However, this isn\u2019t the only version of the Freestyle Kinesis offers.

The Dygma Raise is a great option for those not ready to fully commit to an ergonomic board or <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a>rs who want to be able to switch to a standard layout gaming keyboard.<\/p>\n<p>But if there\u2019s one issue with the Dygma Raise, it\u2019s the buying process\u2014you can\u2019t just add this to your cart and be on your merry way. The Raise is sold in limited batches, which are on a \u201cfirst-come, first-served\u201d basis. At the time of writing, a new batch has just started, but if you miss out on it, you\u2019ll need to join the company\u2019s email notifications and just wait for the next one.<\/p>\n<p>The Raise is a great option if you\u2019re willing to jump through the hoops (and pay the high price) to get it. Otherwise, you should probably go with one of the other high-end split keyboards previously mentioned such as the Moonlander Mark 1.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>setTimeout(function(){!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,document,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');fbq('init','1137093656460433');fbq('track','PageView');},3000);<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
