It leaves off the number pad, which brings it down to 36.5 x 13.5 x 3 cm and gives your mouse more room on the desk. The cable is 1.5 m long and the supplier lists it as a general-purpose game keyboard for notebooks and desktop computers. Easy Life Markets sells it as a single keyboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAn 87-key layout is what keyboard people call tenkeyless. You keep the full typing block, the function row, the arrow keys and the navigation cluster, and lose only the numeric keypad on the right. For gaming that is a sensible trade: your mouse hand sits closer to your keyboard hand and your shoulders stay square.

Its specification sheet says only \"game keyboard\" and names no switch type, brand or actuation force. Many backlit keyboards with tall floating keycaps like these are membrane boards built to look and feel like mechanical ones. We cannot confirm which this is, so we are not selling it as a true mechanical keyboard. If individual mechanical switches matter to you, \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/contact\"\u003eask us\u003c\/a\u003e before ordering and we will put the question to the supplier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Backlight\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe photos show the light arranged in bands across the board: green on the left, then red, purple and blue towards the right. That is a fixed rainbow pattern, where each zone has its own colour. The supplier does not list any lighting modes, brightness steps or software, so do not expect per-key colour control. The raised keycaps let the light spill out round each key, which is the effect the supplier's picture calls a dazzling lighting effect, and it makes the legends easy to find in a dark room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWill It Work with Your Computer?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePort.\u003c\/strong\u003e It needs one standard USB-A port.

Dropping the number pad brings the mouse back in line with your arm and frees space for wide, low-sensitivity mouse movements in games. You keep the arrow keys, the function row and the block of navigation keys above the arrows, so nothing you use in everyday typing is missing. The one group who should think twice is people who enter a lot of figures in spreadsheets or accounts software. For that work a number pad is hard to give up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSetting It Up\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug the USB cable into the computer.

It also works as an external keyboard for a notebook that sits on a stand. People who enter a lot of numbers will miss the keypad and should look at a full-size board instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnplug the keyboard before cleaning. Turn it over and tap out crumbs, then brush between the keys with a soft brush. Wipe the keycaps with a slightly damp cloth and dry them. Raised keycaps make this easier than on a flush laptop-style board, because dust has nowhere to hide. Keep drinks away from it. The supplier makes no claim about spill resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it wireless?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. It connects by a 1.5 m USB cable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it have a number pad?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. It has 87 keys, without the numeric keypad.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I change the backlight colour?\u003c\/strong\u003e The supplier does not list colour modes.
