X9 Large Print Backlit Keyboard Wired – Easy-to-See Light Up Keys for Seniors, Elderly, and Kids – USB Illuminated Keyboard with 7 Backlight Colors, Oversized Letters for PC and Chrome - Type Easily

I love how this keyboard lights up. So easy to use in low light in the room. I can choose which color I like to use, and makes using this keyboard a pleasure.

I have a love-hate relationship with keyboards. I have been pounding on them for years. and my skills only seem to get worse. My fingers go all over the keyboard and I do best when I'm looking at the keys rather than the screen. I was taught all the right practices. My mother could type 80 - 90 WPM. But alas... I will always be klutzing along.My choice in keyboards has more to do with my inabilities than my abilities, and I have several makes and types lying around abandoned and forsaken. $50 is the most I've paid for a keyboard and most are around the $25. range. I've used more expensive keyboards that, in comparison, were only impressive in their cost. My favorite was the keyboard on an old Commodore 128.I am bothering to write this review because I want to share the advantages of this keyboard with other klutzes out there as well as those who just like a comfortable keyboard.Like I said, I've tried dozens of makes and models searching for my comfort zone. I believe I've found it in this very low-priced keyboard.WIRELESS VS WIRED: My last keyboard - the $50. Logitech - was wireless. First of all, I've found that I have no use for wireless keyboards. They are not active at bootup, which means if you want to enter your computer's BIOS or perform other tasks before the Bluetooth connects, you better have a wired keyboard handy to plug in. Your system may be different, but that's how mine works, and I have a top-of-the-line system.LOW PROFILE KEYS: Although I generally liked the feel of the very low-profile height of the keys on the Logitech, I found myself spending almost as much time correcting typos as I did typing - especially in the lower-left of the keyboard, where I found myself constantly typing 2 or three c's or s's or d's. Other typos occurred when I accidentally hit unintended keys. This X9 keyboard has low-profile keys that are just right. I like the feel of flat keys and these are raised just enough, with a very slight curvature toward the middle, so that they feel very solid to the touch.BACKLIGHTING. The backlighting could be better - with more highlight on the actual letters than the area surrounding them. But this may actually be a plus. Without exception, every low-priced backlit keyboard I have used has ended up with worn keys where the character just turns into a highlighted glob..I suspect the manufacturer is trying to avoid this here. Time will tell, but there is something about these keys that makes me believe that.LARGE LETTERS: After more years than I want to count typing away on keyboards, I still have only a reasonable idea where the keys are. I can, somewhat type without looking at the keyboard, but I am much more efficient when the location of my fingers is the focus of my attention. I discovered this when using a keyboard with very small letters against my failing eyesight. I have several different glasses around the house whose usage depends on the task at hand, and my computer glasses are not conducive to looking at small letters on the keyboard, so this is also a boon.LOOK AND FEEL: I don't care what a keyboard looks like. I care about its functionality and how it FEELS. That said, this keyboard has a rather pleasant, dark-woodsy or brushed metal look to it that stands in stark contrast to some of the other very plastic-looking low priced keyboards I have purchased. The feel of my fingers on the keys is solid and comfortable. I love it above the 10 or 11 keyboards I have used over the last 15 years.I am extremely pleased with this purchase.

I could not insert the @ key under the number 2 from the number button in the second row down. I tried several ways to do this and still does not work otherwise it would have been excellent. I am partially sighted

！"#$%&()=等や:の表示位置が、ふつうの並びと違うので、キーボード表示の&(shift+7)を押すと、実際の表示は'となる。普通のWindowsの並びを考えると'が表示されるのは納得できるが、キーの文字が大きいのでついつられてキーボード表示を押してしまうのでちょっと使いづらい

the keyboard lights in different colours larger letters but the letters should have been white on the black
