Can anyone recommend one of these? Preferably with thin rather than bulky keys....

 

Cheers

The only recommendation is that you keep to the brands Microsoft or Logitech.

Microsoft 2000 has got programmable keys for your 'favourite' folders/files. Useful.

Thanks but I have this one currently... I am looking for thin (flat) keys, similar to those on a laptop keyboard

I think its funny how preferences differ between people GF swears by what you like flat keys i swear by the bulkey game style keyboards with nice keys. 

 

But like others said go for logitech or microsoft and select from there.

Summary: You have to try it yourself. And I know that is difficult in Covid times.

Lots of different people have lots of different preferences.

I agree with @robblok, recently I worked on a horrible keyboard and I recommended the user that she should buy a decent keyboard because that would make typing a lot more comfortable. Her reply was that she just bought this keyboard which she liked a lot more than others...

Depends what you are doing... I find that a combination of playing FIFA, riding a motorbike and working on a comp makes my fingers hurt sometimes..... that's why I would like thinner keys.

I've tried a number of keywords already.... thinner the better for me.... the one I am using has keys which are midway between chunky and thin, but I'd like one of the really flat ones.,

Just a thought would fifa not play better with a game controller ? (no idea but I game too on my computer and for instance the Witcher 3 plays great with a controller.

 

I use my keyboard a cosair K95 (expensive) great, it has nice switches and a row of free programable keys (good for my work as i can put shortcuts there).

 

So yes it really depends on what you like.  Its something you have to try personally.

Riding motorcycle in real or in a computer game?

If in a game, get a joystick or gamepad. It is a LOT better.

I do use a Playstation controller!

 

And yes... real motorbike. All things that involve a trigger / gripping action. Combined with computer work it all takes its toll on hands.

I use playstation controllers too. Fifa might be a lot more button bashing then the game i play. Anyway hope you find a solution.

Does it?

I work and sometimes play on my PC more or less all the time. And I ride motorcycles. I have no problems at all with my hands.

 

I use MS ergonomic keyboard and mouse. Expensive but good!

Well.... everybody is different!

 

Nice keyboard but keys are a bit too thick for me. I also use the wrist support pads for keyboard / mouse.

Take a look at the keychron K7 - I have a full size keychron mechanical, they also make a wrist support for their range. You can tether it with USB-C if needed.

Did you want recommendations for a mouse? 
 

Not USB but Logitech MX Master for me is the best time saving tool ever. Programmable buttons and wheel on the thumb is a game changer.

I'm still a bit old school and like a bit of clickety-click on my keyboard.

 

The wife on the other hand has a keyboard for a tablet that seems to have the flatter kind of keys you are after.
