idk what it is but i like the number pad
ooo the chart is here. I think that’s keychron’s chart. it’s a good one that explain the differences between the sizes pretty well
(NO DISRESPECT INTENDED) Just get 100% I Dont Care if your an esports pro or a chill gamer or a worker or anyone just get 100% your skill does not change depending on keyboard size as either way you have your left hand on WASD and space keys. People who use under 100% probably only do it simply because it’s “cool” now in days but there’s absolutely NOTHING “cool” about having to use the numbers on TOP of the keyboard compared to the Number area. Who actually types numbers on top of their keyboard plz tell me
96%
Funny how 1800 has 96 keys, 100 has 104 keys, and 96 has 98 keys ![]()
I cannot live without the numpad.

100% for work, absolutely need numpad for data entry at work. 75% for at home. Very rarely need the numbers except for sign on and oddly specific stuff. Plus also gives more free area on the desk for mouse to move unobstructed. Not whatsoever a choice of what’s popular, just a choice of what’s comfortable and necessary for the use case.
I have a razer naga so the num pad is on the mouse
I currently use a 40% and not gonna lie kinda love the astetics of a tiny keyboard but the practality of it all just not there. I’m either go with an 80% or full for next go around. Too used to having a num keypad at work feels odd at home without it…even tho at home not much use for it.
60% is perfect, anything else is a waste of space and you are not using your keyboard to it’s full potential. You can program your board to your needs. If you are tied to the numpad and do a bunch of data entry this way then you can by a separate numpad, the desk space is more critical for me than the numpad.
