FAQs

What exactly is a 60% keyboard?
A 60% keyboard is an ultra-compact layout that removes the numpad, function row (F1-F12), and dedicated arrow keys. This minimalist design frees up maximum desk space for your mouse.

Why do so many pro gamers use 60% keyboards?
Competitive gamers need more room for wide, sweeping mouse movements, especially in FPS and MOBA titles. The compact form factor of a 60% keyboard provides this crucial space, enabling faster and more precise aiming.

How do I use arrow keys or F-keys on a 60% keyboard?
These keys are accessed through a secondary layer using the 'Fn' (Function) key. For example, you might press Fn + I, J, K, L for arrows or Fn + 2 for the F2 key, maintaining full functionality in a smaller size.

Is a 60% keyboard better than a TKL for gaming?
The keyboard layout depends on your priorities. A 60% offers the most mouse real estate, ideal for competitive players. A TKL (Tenkeyless) is a great middle-ground, retaining function and arrow keys for users who need them frequently.

Are 60% keyboards good for typing or programming?
Yes, many programmers and writers love them. The programmable layers allow for custom shortcuts that can boost workflow efficiency. The ergonomic benefit of a more centered typing position is also a major plus.

Does the compact size of a 60% keyboard help with ergonomics?
Yes, its smaller width allows you to keep your mouse closer to your body's centerline. This can reduce shoulder and wrist strain during long gaming sessions by promoting a more natural posture.
