Keychron B11 Pro Ultra-Slim Wireless Foldable Keyboard

@paul I can't tell if it is a rigid, curved thing, or if it's a floppy rubber keyboard. Is that a living hinge?

@paul hmmm... about twice the price of the angled folding keyboards my wife and I ended up with when she went back to school, and the angle does look good. If your tablet or laptop does not have an angled or split keyboard then the ergonomics on one like this are important.

However the programmability looks to be quite helpful. That, in my mind, bumps things into "hmm, fair price".

@joncruz @paul Yeah. That and I bet it feels nicer to type on than some of the super cheap ones out there... I have a folding keyboard from I think iClever that looks kind of like this, but it doesn't have the keycap profile this one does

I'm tempted to get one as a travel keyboard to keep in my bag

@paul I used a (much cheaper) non programmable keyboard with the exact same look/layout for a few years with an iPad.

If you are ok with a flat keyboard like this (where your wrists are nearly resting on the desk), these are so much better than a straight one like the iPad Magic Keyboard.

@paul very similar to ProtoArc XK03
@paul no function row!!!
@paul How can they not list the thickness anywhere?
@paul I experimented with a very similar keyboard. It was cool! But I ultimately found the flat design a very unnatural typing experience. But I still really like the idea…
@mattiem @paul You’re back to a rectangular keyboard?
@cdf1982 @paul oh no I still much prefer split! But I need something raised off the surface a bit.

@mattiem @paul I seemed to recall your preference!

I never gave it a go, but someday I’ll definitely try one and come asking for advice

@cdf1982 I cannot use a laptop-on-table for more than an hour or so before ergonomics become a problem.

I have a roost stand, and thought a keyboard like this could be perfect. And it if I *had* to travel and work a lot maybe it would be worth the trade-offs. But I do not.

@paul oooh by Keychron *is* very interesting
@paul They're always up to something huh? I got their Q7 for cheap and its a fun hobby starter for the custom scene. Their compacts and mice also look v neat
@paul not available in the UK 😡
