Compact 1800 Keyboard (96%)

Finding a compact 1800 keyboard is like finding a unicorn, there aren’t many for sale. 1800-Compact keyboards usually get lost in the cracks, they’re a great middle ground between tenkeyless and full-sized keyboards. We’ve put together a post of our favorite 1800 compact keyboards if you want to do some further research.

The 1800 compact keyboard layouts are similar to a full-size layout, except that they merge the numeric keypad and the rest of the keyboard to save space. These are slightly narrower keyboards, so they’re slightly smaller and more compact. This makes the keyboard easier to pack up and take with you. Plus, the compact full-size layouts don’t drop any of the keys, making typing extremely easy and comfortable.

60 Mechanical Keyboard

60 keyboards are designed to ship with only 60 percent of the keys of a standard keyboard.

You basically just get the essential keys, like all the alphabetic buttons to type. However, there are no arrow keys, function keys, navigation keys, Numpad, Delete, Insert, Prt Sc or Scroll lock buttons.

CHOICE

The 60% keyboard also lends itself well to customization. They usually come with standard layouts and therefore have the luxury of being compatible with virtually every single custom set of keys ever made. There are also different sets of keys for 60% only, which of course makes you less money since they only come with enough keys for a 60% keyboard. Custom cases are also plentiful for 60% of keyboards, as they all use the standard screw locations, and because of this, you have many choices to transform your keyboard into something unique.

The other nice thing about them is that there are many choices available, and some are much cheaper than the usual full-size keyboards.

The form factor

Many users of the 60% keyboard consider its size one of its main attractions. With a keyboard this small, you’ll have more than enough room on your desk, game, or workspace. Eliminating the navigation cluster and numeric keypad provides about six inches or 15 centimeters of horizontal space.

This means you don’t have to overextend your arm to reach for the mouse while keeping the keyboard close to you. It’s an ergonomic benefit that allows you to enjoy greater comfort while keeping your hands close. No wonder why many esports players love to use them.
