It definitely has the best key action I have ever used in a non laptop chicklet keyboard. This one is a very good scissor switch, usb, multimedia keyboard. Most of the keyboards seem good but are really cheap and pretty rubbish tbh. If you want a scissor switch compact usb keyboard, there's not a lot of choice out there. The keyboard I have bought from this supplier is the UK version with the £ sign above 3 and the $ sign above 4. The default version of this keyboard and most of the standard pictures you see on Amazon & on the Lenovo website for this keyboard are actually the US version. I work in an accountancy practice and use my pc for word processing and spreadsheets. I have seen from reviews of this keyboard on Amazon that some people have ended up with a US version. One final point worth mentioning is to double check before you buy that you are buying a UK or US layout keyboard. I have become accustomed to that with my previous keyboard and despite working daily with numbers find it no hardship to be without the number pad.

There is no "number keypad" the numbers are above the QWERTY line of the keyboard. The integrated mouse is not to everyone's taste but for me it is super-efficient and it is great to have it back. It will take a little while to get past the need to glance down at the keyboard to spot those keys. One change which will prove a little more difficult to get accustomed to is the relocation of the PgUp and PgDn keys to the bottom right of the keyboard and rather than be on the vertical plane they are on the same horizontal plane. I don't think that creates a particular difficulty for me.

The older keyboard measured 30cm x 22cm and the space has been saved in this keyboard by eliminating the top row of buttons and incorporating their operation into the F function key row. The key pads are very comfortable to use and although the layout differs from the old keyboard all the key elements are where they used to be. Having used it for half a day I am back to normal work speed and accuracy, and very well pleased with the new keyboard. It is compact, just 30cm long and 16cm deep with an integrated red button mouse.

I was very glad to find this updated version on Amazon and after a very frustrating week of working with a large desktop keyboard and separate mouse it was an enormous relief when my new keyboard arrived today. Last week I could not get logged in and eventually discovered the one of the letters in my password had died on the keyboard. I have had an older model of this keyboard for several years on my office computer.
