List Price:	$26.99 USD

Kensington SlimType is a laptop style wired keyboard. It is thin and quiet, the keys have nice soft touch. Users report typing faster with it. But a compact nonstandard layout takes some time to get used to.

Pros.

Keys have a very nice feel to them.
It’s much easier to type very fast with scissor-switch technology.
The media (play/pause, volume up/down) keys are handy.
This keyboard is very quiet.

Cons.

The nonstandard layout.
The keys tend to stick after a while.

What do people say

I have been more than pleasantly surprised with this purchase. Where the keys on my previous keyboard had been harder to press and noisy, this keyboard has a light and quiet touch which makes typing faster and quieter with less mistakes. Also, I am not a fan of the new flat/chicklet keypads and prefer these contoured keys. This keyboard would be my choice over those other higher-rated keyboards, any day! (It is wired, but that’s not an issue for me; I don’t move the keyboard from the desk, anyway).

One thing that takes getting used to if you are coming from a standard desktop board, is the compact layout. While this is great for gaming (many keys within easy reach) I find myself hitting the wrong key, for example reaching too far for the A and hitting the Caps Lock key, or hitting the 2 instead of the W. Laptop users should be fine, but for me, coming from a massive old Microsoft keyboard, it will take a bit of adjustment. Also a few keys have had to be shifted around to fit on such a compact board. You can check out the product images and compare them to your present board. Again it’s all a matter of adjustment if you’re willing.
