This keyboard is absolutely great for ergonomics. Its got some really fantastic features. I'm going to nitpick a bit but overall its a really great keyboard from a functional standpoint. Its got the usual ergonomic layout, which is great for your wrists. The buttons are responsive and have subtle wells in them which really increases comfort. I find that some similar ergonomic keyboards I've tried will make the tips of some of my finger hurt after a long time typing, but this one feels a lot gentler on my fingertips. The split spacebar also makes sure that its easy to press with either thumb and it will actually work, even if you only pushed it at one end.Its got 3 levels of brightness which are easy to switch between. Just white though, no RGB lighting. Speaking of which, I've also not had any problems gaming on this keyboard, it works great, and I find some of the keys that usually give me trouble because of my small hands, like the shift and cntrl are actually a lot more comfortable. Its also got some really nice function keys, like one that instantly brings up the settings window or takes you to the login screen which is great for security.The wrist rest is comfortable, soft enough. I don't love the material, its that synthetic faux leather and I find for some reason it tends to make my hands sweat, I actually prefer the usual untextured synthetic rubbery stuff. Its mostly fine though, its got a very soft surface feel. One of the best features of this keyboard are the legs. Its got the usual 2 at the back, but its also got 2 more at the front, which is fantastic if you just want to add a tad of height without introducing any tilt.Its got several wireless modes for connection, ironically it doesn't work wired though. You can plug a USB C wire into it and plug it into your computer and it will charge, but it wont work. I'm not a huge fan of wireless stuff for my stationary desktop, since all it means is an extra charging headache. I ended up just keeping it wired to my computer for charging and using the wireless dongle at the same time, its a bit annoying though that it ends up using up 2 USB slots though when they could just have made it work wired.Overall its a great keyboard with a ton of features that really add up to the comfort of the entire thing. Its just really great to reduce wrist pain if you spend a lot of time at the computer.
