Delux Ergonomic split pro wireless

Ode to the Split Pro backlit

You just keep rubbing it

It's truly wonderfully soft and seems to constantly want to kiss your hands. This can indeed be called a full-fledged palm rest. And we haven't even gotten to that amazing keyboard attached to it yet.

Why the Delux Split Pro backlit keyboard

A very well thought-out board

With the Split Pro, you have a fairly compact board in front of you, which nevertheless features a full numeric keypad. Its split design combined with the slight curve in the middle makes for great typing. Furthermore, it is equipped with both a 2.4 GHz (USB receiver) and two Bluetooth connections. We also shouldn't forget the multimedia keys below the function row and the feet under each corner of the board.

Pleasant scissor mechanism

This board types really well for a scissor mechanism. It provides feedback and sufficient counter-pressure. For the avid typist, this is a delightful typing experience. The board is sturdy and weighs a good kilogram, meaning it's not a soundbox. This ensures it doesn't produce much noise. The scissor mechanism in each key is designed to last up to 3 million keystrokes.

Windows & Mac

The keyboard features a dual layout: both Windows users and Mac enthusiasts can therefore get along with this board.

For Mac users  : the keyboard only works 100% if you connect it in Bluetooth mode. When paired with the USB receiver, some buttons do not work properly. For example, you cannot create shortcuts with the Command key.

Split with a slight curve

The layout of the board immediately catches the eye. And it feels good. There are a few ideas behind it:

• Fingers find the keys on the board more easily
• Hands are better aligned with your wrists
• Your forearms are positioned slightly further outwards, so your wrists don't have to bend

Furthermore, there is a slight curve in the board, causing the thumbs to point slightly upwards. This creates the same effect as with a vertical mouse. The arm adopts a neutral posture and can find more relaxation.

Nice keys with backlighting

The keys on the board are so-called 'concave keycaps'. The key has a kind of hollow, where the fingers rest during typing. It gives you a little more certainty when you strike a key.

The board is equipped with white backlight illumination. You have access to 3 brightness levels, but you can also turn off the lighting. The lighting does not shine through the keys, but around them. In the dark, you won't be able to read the letters better because of it.

What makes the Delux Split Pro so good?

Its curve and split layout are ideal for a relaxed forearm posture. The arm is less rotated, the thumbs point upwards. You can compare the posture to your hand on a vertical mouse. The arm is in a more neutral position.

Multimedia madness

The top function row is equipped with multimedia keys. You can choose to keep the row on the function keys by default, but it can also be fixed on the multimedia keys. The combination 'FN+Esc' does this. If the board is in function mode, but you still want to mute the volume? Then press 'FN+F11' to activate the multimedia layer once. This combination with FN works for every multimedia key.

The USB receiver of the Split keyboard can be stored in the back of the keyboard. It stays firmly in place thanks to the built-in magnet.

Getting used to the layout

A split keyboard always takes some getting used to. The keys are not in a strict straight line. You also have to deal with a 'gap' between the middle rows. If you touch-type, you won't need much time to get used to the board. If you don't, it's not unusual to need 1-2 weeks to fully adapt to the board.

One of the compromises made to keep the board compact are the arrow keys.   and   immediately stand out as being a bit smaller. Fortunately, they have a curve, so you can always find them quickly (and distinguish them from each other).

Feet all around

The board is equipped with feet under all 4 corners. It can therefore also be tilted negatively, which is pleasant for the wrists.
