Most keyboard reviews are about gaming. Can any of you recommend a good keyboard for coding/programming?

Here’s some criteria for selecting the keyboard:

  • Comfortable keys, easy to click and write coding quickly
  • Must be a bluetooth keyboard
  • Prefer using replaceable batteries instead of charging port
  • Full keyboard keys including function keys, arrow keys and numpad
  • Size can be compact or full-sized
  • Doesn’t matter if back-lit or not
  • Doesn’t matter if loud or quiet clicks
  • Budget around USD 50

    Ergonomic keyboards are not a result of “the size of the keyboard”, but the shape.

    I apologize for the mistake. Even though I referred to size, what I had in mind was geometry/layout.

    Without any real studies on it mentioned so far you’re relying on gut feeling and logic here.

    Are there actually any studies suggesting that ergonomic keyboards prevent RSI? As far as I could gather, there’s a correlation between higher RSI incidence and keyboard usage, but nothing suggests ergonomic keyboards lead to a lower incidence of RSI.
