ProtoArc Backlit Wireless Ergonomic Keyboard, EK01 Plus Ergo Keyboard with Wrist Rest, Split Design, USB-C Charging, Bluetooth and USB, Natural Typing Compatible with Windows/Mac/Android

*Please be aware this review is being written from a totally blind person’s perspective* I absolutely love this keyboard, thanks to the reviewer who compared it to the Ergo K860, that was really helpful as I also had one of those previously. This is really comfortable to type on, I find the keys better than the 860. They seem thicker, more robust, and I love the leather wrist rest. I obviously won’t use the backlighting feature, but I’ve easily connected it to my iPhone and iPad via Bluetooth. I love the indented keys with the edges, my fingers fit in them seamlessly. I am an audio transcriber for work, so I type a hell of a lot of course, and I needed a new keyboard after my Ergo K started slipping, having lost it’s pads. I love the media circle, in the middle of the two spacebars, like you’d find on a TV remote. I have never seen a keyboard with such accessible and clearly placed media controls, they will get a lot of use both work and personally! Thanks for this Proto Ark, I love that! It’s nice to have a rechargeable battery too, rather than having to worry about changing triple A’s. It’s a little bit more noisy than I’d like, the Ergo K860 is quieter in my opinion, but the indented keys, media circle and leather wrist rest have totally won me over! A great keyboard, well worth the price and better than the more expensive 860, in my opinion. It also doesn’t have an app, which I love, as the Logitech options is not accessible with a screen reader! I will buy a new one of these, if I ever need to replace it! Which due to typing being my job and writing Fanfiction personally, is highly likely! Just finally, I know you’re wondering… yes, I am typing this on the keyboard!

BRILLIANT! I stupidly spilt water over my Logitech Ergo keyboard... tried to revive it, but it wasn't possible. I tried a cheaper keyboard - worked fine but the key travel/noise is a strange thing... when you are used to a premium keyboard, you really notice the difference. This keyboard is really well an truly brilliant. Keys are really quiet, the travel is minimal and smooth just like Logitech. Obviously, for people who want the Ergo layout, this is spot on. Having the full range too i.e. keypad etc. is wonderful too as well as the backlit lighting. The other perfect option is you can use it with the included USB transmitter as well as two other Bluetooth connections simultaneously. The problem I had with a pure Bluetooth setup is I have a KVM to switch between three computers... bluetooth doesn't work across all three at the same time of course, but the dedicated USB transmitter does !!!!

Good for around a year, then keys started falling off :(

An excellent keyboard that allows my hands to position themselves far more comfortably and naturally than on a standard one. Moreover, the typing feel is positive, providing good tactile feedback. The backlight helps on those evenings when it gets dark early, too. I have been a computer user for over 45 years, and ergonomic keyboards like this have been a joy to use; I even bought one to use while visiting my clients when I was a freelance consultant.

Initially I was skeptical about the price and the design as I had never used a curve keyboard, but looking at the review and product video I decided to buy, and it's been close to 3 months since I've bought, and love it so far. The packaging was premium, the build quality is great. Bluetooth connectivity works like a charm, and holds the Bluetooth connection, doesn't drop. You can connect to 3 devices switching effortlessly, and the keyboard keys feels soft and is not noisy. It took a while to get used the ergonomic keyboard, about 2 weeks but I would suggest to give that time to learn and get used to it. The backlit keyboard is great in case you work in late evenings. I felt it is slightly on the heavier side, but don't think that as a con as I leave it on my work desk. Verdict: I'll be a ProtoArc customer for life. Note: I bought the mouse from their store as a bundle, and love the mouse.

Excellent keyboard, very comfortable and responsive. Backlight is a nice feature. My nee favourite keyboard over the microsoft ones.

O único mal é não ter a tecla "< >"

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.

Muy ergonómico pero recomiendo no conectarlo vía Bluetooth ya que tarda en responder

I absolutely love this keyboard. I have been using a regular full size mechanical gaming keyboard and have been suffering from neck, shoulder and wrist pain for some time, Decided to try an ergonomic keyboard and mouse. The packaging was thoughtful and rivalled some expensive brands. The keyboard was so easy to set up with the USB dongle, connected seamlessly. The keyboard even comes with a silicone cover that is so nice to type on. The wrist pad is soft and comfortable and there is a good amount of feedback from the keys with a gentle click when you press them. The backlight is great with three brightness options. I have smaller hands and the keyboard layout is perfect for my hands, but would also suit someone with bigger hands. So happy with this product. Would highly recommend.

Number 7 in the key board for some reason is not working?!
