Hey all
I've been searching for a portable keyboard that I can easily carry in my backpack as I switch between different working spaces. Since I primarily use MacOS, I'm looking for a keyboard with a MacOS layout. After some research, I've narrowed down my options to three models:
- Nuphy Air60
- Logitech K380
- Keychron K7.
I'd appreciate your insights and recommendations on which one would be the best fit for my needs. Here are a few things I'm considering:
-
Portability: How easy is it to carry in a backpack? Is it lightweight and compact enough for on-the-go use?
-
Compatibility: I need it to work seamlessly with MacOS. Have you had any compatibility issues with these keyboards on a Mac?
-
Typing Experience: How comfortable and responsive is the typing experience? Is it suitable for extended periods of typing?
-
Build Quality: Does the keyboard feel durable and well-constructed? Any issues with keys or connectivity?
-
Battery Life: How long does the battery typically last on these keyboards?
-
Any Additional Features: Are there any standout features or drawbacks that I should be aware of?
If you've used any of these keyboards or have other recommendations in mind, please share your experiences and thoughts. Your input will be a big help in making my decision!
Thanks in advance for your assistance! ๐
If you're willing to go down this rabbit hole: I have a Planck keyboard. It's super tiny, only weighs 300g and feels good enough that I use it daily for work (programming) even though I bought it for travel. Don't get too discouraged by the missing keys. It does have a slight learning curve and in my case I also tweaked the software quite a lot to get exactly what I want, but if you're up for it, it can be super rewarding. I got the pre-built Planck EZ but it's discontinued but there are other Planck-style boards out there.
Made me curious. I'll Google it :)
