The Logitech ERGO K860 keyboard is my first ergonomic keyboard and it does live up to the promise of being comfortable and more forgiving on your wrists.

I don’t understand how they can make an ergonomically focused keyboard but then not have a version without a numPad so you can keep the mouse/trackball in tighter on the right side.

Because the NumPad is great to have and most businesses wouldn't buy a keyboard without it? :)

@@steve357g well microsoft release an ergonomical keyboard a couple of years ago which had a separate numpad. what i don't get is: why make the keyboard and palmrest a single unit?! that seems like such a stupid decision. it takes up more space on your desktop, you can't replace it seperately, or what if i already have palm rest?

@@gehtdinichtsan309 I partially agree: it sucks that you can't replace the upper part of the palmrest if it needs to be replaced, but I can tell you from experience that this keyboard would make no sense without a palmrest. You rest your palms there while typing. 😎 And given the unique curvature of this keyboard, you need a palmrest that really fits.

I'm considering getting this keyboard, mainly for programming, but I would be gaming on it occasionally. I don't mind it not having gamer-oriented features, but there are 2 things I'm kind of worried about. Firstly, performance - is there any noticeable latency or missed inputs? I have heard that some wireless keyboards "fall asleep" after a very short period of inactivity in order to save energy, is this an issue with this one? My other concern is with the numpad. Keyboards without one tend to be better from both gaming and ergonomic perspectives, because the travel distance from keyboard to mouse is shorter and the arm position ends up being more natural. Did you feel like this was a problem with this keyboard?

Mine just arrived today. Overall I think it's a great keyboard, but I really wish they had added extended padding going up the left side of the keyboard so I can comfortably use commands to change tabs/windows and to save files, which I do very often. In order to execute them I have to my wrist off of the wrist rest completely.

Hi I'M thinking, with some carefully cut soft cotton canvas and some strategically placed double sided tape... It should prove possible to prevent the fabric covering the wrist rest from wearing out or least greatly extending its useful life. No need to replace entire keyboard just because the fabric wears out. 🤔

Just picked it up. Loving it so far. Wish there was a light for the numbers lock, but otherwise it’s what I wanted. Easy pairing with my iPad and iPhone. The switch is pretty quick. Keys feel nice. The only way you won’t like/appreciate this keyboard is if you don’t “type”. One finger typist may find it irritating have a split keyboard. I’ve never needed the backlit keys. They look nice, but I don’t use them for typing. Rechargeable battery would have been nice, but not a deal breaker (obviously, since I purchased it). I’d like to say $129 is too much, I’ve purchased and returned several keyboards over the past month or so that cost less. None had all the features or comforts of this keyboard. So, take that for what it’s worth.

The ONLY thing I wish it had was a rechargeable battery like my BT Arteck keyboard....which is not ergo, nor do i love it....but it's light, rechargeable, portable, and just basically good and functional. Again, I highly recommend the logitech k860....just great!

I’m bringing that keyboard bak within the hour and already ordered/piking up the K860. More what I’m looking for - I need/want a keyboard that lets me go back and forth between my computer, tablet and phone.

I've been using one of these for over 10 months now. The 6/^ key is on the wrong side of the split. The pegs or feet for elevating the wrists are fragile. They have long since departed the mortal realm. The touch and operation of the keyboard are excellent. The shape of the keyboard is excellent. I have a bit of carple-tunnel starting up in my right wrist and it has improved since I started using this keyboard. I recommend the K860 from Logitech. I just wish they would put the 6 key on the right-hand side of the split.

This was a good review, with relevant information. But I hate the distractions with the dog. It has nothing to do with the halfwits, who will accuse me of not liking dogs. I like dogs just fine. But it's more about etiquette and professionalism. Why do people feel the need to interject their animals into something that has NOTHING to do with their animals??? It's rude, annoying and wastes our time. I normally click off as soon as I see it, but decided to give this vid a little more leeway for some reason. The feeling is still the same, even though Soldier appears to be a very likeable guy. Why is it so hard to just stick to the subject matter, and leave the animals for your Instagram or personal channel? The reason I took the time to mention this is because I value my time, and it feels wasted whenever someone goes well away from the topic I clicked to see. Just a note, as even though many will flame me about this comment, which I couldn't care less what some halfwit says, I feel that when you're trying to build your channel it's relevant information to NOT use polarizing things. That way you reach the maximum amount of viewers. And isn't that what it's all about??? Lastly, I just received mine, and the keys are the most perfect balance of responsiveness, click force, sound and comfort. Touching the keys in a store is the entire reason I purchased this keyboard. I wasn't even in the market. BUT, getting used to the wide split is proving a bit of a challenge. Although I've only had it one day. Good vid overall.
