I have to admit that for a very long time I hesitated to try the 60% layout. The reason behind my hesitation was very simple. I was under the impression that I should be able to work with any standard office keyboard, so I should avoid using any layout that is different from an average office keyboard. And that was the main reason I switched to the 80% (TKL) keyboard about 5 years ago. I was completely wrong with my assumptions.

After trying different keyboards, it seems that I’ve finally found my new daily driver. You probably remember the adventure with the Keychron C1 Pro keyboard. As it turned out, the strange typing feeling was related to the mounting style used in this keyboard. Let’s dig into it and I will tell you about my new daily driver.

As you probably know, I’m trying to find a new daily driver keyboard. After I tried red switches, I got the urge to experiment and find something more convenient for my daily typing. As the Keychron company offers very good keyboards, I made a decision to try the Keychron C1 Pro.

For years I used to use the IKB C-104 keyboard with brown switches. I was pretty confident that this keeb was the best choice ever. However, I was starting to notice that it was pretty big and cumbersome. So, I made a decision to try something new and smaller.
