        i agree, linear switch is good for gaming as its most responsive but also good for office as it the least noisy unless you're the kind who bottoms out keys all the time

      Mechanical keyboards in an office is the audible equivalent of having a stinky lunch.

        You can get quiet switches though. But yes, a loud one nearby is pretty bad for everyone.

        It's only blue switches that are very loud and clacky. Reds and are audible but not loud. Most likely wouldn't be loud enough to be heard over background noise in an office.

        There are also silent Reds which barely make any noise. It's what I have in my keyboard.

      • plasmoske on 18/05/2023 - 21:57
        +1

        That highly depends on what key switch it has.

        I've used silent ones before and loud ones. At the moment, I am using blue switches (which are loud) but I am working at home so it's not an issue. Wouldn't use this in an office though. Would annoy everyone with the click click click.

      • Sillen on 18/05/2023 - 22:03

        Switches red and brown are practically silent around town. Does not compare to mackerel in the microwave!

        you are confusing mechanical keyboards with mx blue switches, but by the looks of it, you are ignorant to the mechanical keyboard options.

        mechanical keyboards are fantastic and you can customise it anyway you like. you can have a super load keyboard or you can have the quietest keyboard every made. you also can customise where the key actuates. you can make it linear, tactile, or clicky. you can also change the travel of the keystroke. you can also change the weight of the press and depress of a keystroke. you can have rgb or not. you really have unlimited options with a mechanical keyboard. with this logitech you get only 1 option straight out of the box. the beauty of a mechanical keyboard that is hot swappable is it makes it very easy to change and customise to your perfect setup.

        • PainToad on 18/05/2023 - 22:10

          Not ignorant at all. I know blues are the loudest, but that doesn’t mean the others are quite.

          I also know there’s a whole scene for modding mechs. But 99% of people aren’t doing that.

              they think i am a big weirdo when i go to the office a few days a week with my own keyboard and mouse.
              Then i let them try my setup and they want one, well that is until i tell them how much it cost to build, roflmao.

    • poglet on 19/05/2023 - 19:37

      In my opinion tenkeyless (TKL) is neither good for office or gaming. If you are a gamer, you come across games that use the numpad, or where you wish you could bind some more keys. As an office user you might use the numpad for calculations etc. Mechanical keyboards and switches are of course a personal choice - I like brown or black keys as I find I make less typo's on them, and I enjoy resting my fingers on the keyboard without pressing buttons.

      • PainToad on 20/05/2023 - 08:37

        “Office user” is such a generic term. Everyone sitting in an office isn’t doing calculations.

  • bruc3 on 18/05/2023 - 21:32

    Important note: this keyboard is explicitly wireless only, there is no option to go wired if that is what you want. Not being able to use a cable/wired is a deal breaker for me.

      Perhaps you're looking for a wired keyboard

      • PainToad on 18/05/2023 - 21:42

        I know you’re trying to be a smart ass but there are keyboards that are both wireless and wired combined.

        • Ezuku on 18/05/2023 - 22:01

          Why not both? Although honestly both gives increased flexibility. I plug mine in to whatever computer I'm using at work (no need to mess with bluetooth) and change to the bluetooth to type on my tablet or phone.

        Until you need to enter windows bitlocker key which is like a 30 digit number, every other week.
        I got a keyboard specifically for this as laptop tkl keyboard was driving me insane.
        The punchline is that windows bitlocker key entry didn’t recognise the external keyboard and I still had to type it in TKL keyboard 🥹

          Or endlessly entering I.P. addresses. Having the ‘.’ character right there on the numpad is so convenient. About the only situation when I think it wouldn’t matter is entering a bunch of MAC addresses, with the mix of alpha and numeric characters plus colon or dash.

      • Sillen on 19/05/2023 - 13:20

        30+ years of muscle memory, I had to give up the compact Keychron V5 and go back to full size

    • Ezuku on 18/05/2023 - 22:02

      It seems you need a 96pc / 1800 layout. Makes much more sense than a tkl.

      • Hugh G Rection on 18/05/2023 - 22:06
        +5

        false. it all depends. if you are working with numbers all day, then for sure you need a numpad. if you don't have to use numbers frequently a TKL is a great option, especially on a small desk.

        • juki on 18/05/2023 - 22:39

          if you had numbers all day wouldnt you want to get a seperate numpad you can position comfortably ? ( i dont work with numbers all day, i find the AUS layout not to bad for when i do need numbers on the top row)

            +3

            @juki: That’s exactly what I’ve done for Mrs C. She likes the smaller TKL ‘boards because they’re neat & tidy, however there are occasions through her day when she needs to enter a lot of numbers. So, I bought her a wireless numpad to use, and she gets that out when required then pops it back in the desk drawer when finished.

    • Ezuku on 18/05/2023 - 22:05
      +1

      You need a 96pc or 1800 layout. It's basically the reverse of this. You keep the numpad instead of the nav cluster. You can then access the nav cluster keys via an overlay if you really want to.

      Alternatively you could buy a seperate numpad.

      I don't really understand how people do standard life things like tax and bookkeeping without a numpad.

      • drprox on 18/05/2023 - 22:12

        Yeah I certainly use mine a bit but largely for my job. Gaming on the other hand has no requirement so I could.imagimr enjoying a little more desk space and just this decent keyboard to operate with. I'll buy now and worry later though!

      Just picked this one up today and I can concur with your assessment on hollow sound. But so far I am happy with it given the price point.

      Not a keyboard connoisseur and I have been using a Keychron K2 (brown switch) for quite a while. I'd say the difference is somewhat minor and would still be acceptable as an entry level mech keyboard.

      I do like this keyboard for the lack of RGB. Also AAA-batteries means it's easy to recharge.

    Great price for this keyboard thanks. Purchased this afternoon from Officeworks who appear to have matched the price. Just a note for anyone thinking of buying for use in the office. I find it pretty noisy, don't think anyone mentioned that above. Much noisier than the G915 tactile TKL I also have, but I needed switching ability to three devices so purchased this.

    • shake on 19/05/2023 - 22:48

      Just to clarify - Officeworks has matched at $74, or $66?

    Mine arrived clearly used, with the security tabs taped up.

Pretty lame tbh and a PITA to return.

      That sucks mate! Mine was certainly new and pretty good for me tbh. I'm just going to add some orings to the keys which will remove a bit of the hollowness but they're not as bad as I expected.
