Hey Ali, a quick ergonomic tip for you. When you're using a keyboard, it's best to hover your hands over the keyboard. When you rotate your wrist, you're adding a bit of stress on it, and it can lead to carpal tunnel. So try and bring your chair up, or your desk down to keep your wrists from getting bent :)

@AustinSchrock 3 года назад

I back it! Great tip my friend.

@victorugo3875 2 года назад

While this makes sense, I noticed it affects my typing speed dramatically.

@SGMSGM 2 года назад

@Exorbis 2 года назад

It definitely negatively affects typing speed to do this. It's probably better for long term health but you lose so much leverage. I go from 130wpm to 60. Granted if you type on an apple style keyboard with a wrist rest you might not have as much drop in performance, but with mechs I feel like the leverage is necessary (for me at least).

@victorugo3875 2 года назад

@christianpeterson4321 3 года назад

Just in case you didn't know, the keychron keyboards don't only have one lighting mode. You said later on that you didn't like that the colors switch around, but you can change that by just pressing FN + arrow left/arrow right. Plus if u don't like the color look of it, you can always just swap out the keycaps, it's really easy to change them. Hope this sways your opinion a little bit for esthetics on the k2.

It's perfect for keeping your desk, living spaces, and even your car clean and tidy. Plus, it has some great features like high-quality filters and efficient storage. Definitely worth checking out!

@gerhardbekker646 3 года назад

From my research on the topic, I understood that red keys are normally more suited for gaming: They require little force to press, which makes them fast. They are also quiet. However, they do not provide tactile feedback. The blue switches are often quoted to be the best for typing since they give tactile and audible feedback. They can be load, though. The brown switches are a decent compromise. They give tactile feedback, but they are not as loud as the blue switches (yet loader than red). Perhaps have a look at brown at a stage, Ali. It might work for you. It is what I use, and I quite like it :)

@LittleMew133 2 года назад

I prefer blue for gaming because it is harder to accidentally press a key and red for typing because fast

@honkhonkler7732 3 года назад

I personally think feel and lack of mistakes are easily as important as raw speed when it comes to overall productivity. My favorite typing experience is without a doubt the IBM Model M or one of the modern buckling spring descendants from Unicomp (who operates the old IBM keyboard factory in Kentucky). Absolutely wonderful keyboards, if a bit ugly.

@AleksiJoensuu 10 месяцев назад

Same here. For one, I spend much more time thinking about what I'm going to write than actually typing out the letters. And for two, every mistake takes much more time to fix than outright speed can really correct. Of course usually speed and accuracy develop together so it's not really "either or", but still I'll always err on the side of accuracy than speed. I think both of these are things typing tests don't really account for. It would be interesting to have a typing test mode where 0 mistakes are allowed, i.e. you HAVE to go back and fix the mistake.

@extremecat9863 2 года назад

it's actually much harder to keep the flow when you type random words with no sentence structure.

Mainly because the words I'm typing come naturally as a flow, whereas for the typing test my brain often stops and thinks like "why is bearable coming after pub" or whatever :)

I’d be interested to see you ,as a writer, to try out different types of mechanical switches (tactile, clicky, linear, low profile) and different styles of key cap profiles to see how that changes typing speed, feel, and experience. Like if you prefer penguins with KAT keys or ink blacks with OEM profiles (random examples) there’s just so many factors like switch actuation points and travel distance, key shape and wobble, layout. I’d value your viewpoints in contrast to the gamers and coders.

Great video. Very informative. I am a qualified typist and have rather big hands (I am 6ft7/200cm tall). I followed your advice and tried my daughters Apple Magic Keyboard. Right off the bat I knew that you were right - amazing for typing fast, in spite of my big hands. Thanks. I would have never figured it myself. Let's see how it goes in the long run.

@joshyang886 3 года назад

Same here. I’ve tried so many mechanical keyboards and I end up being so tired and confused with those. And I just love the magic keyboard

@aminrafiq132 3 года назад

Very surprised by your take on the Logitech MX Keys, but I definitely respect it. Thanks for another solid video.

I raised mine from 80 to around 110 in around the past 3 months. My goal is around 140 ish so hopefully I can achieve that in a few months of practising

@MichaelNealeYT 3 года назад

Been thinking about getting a mechanical keyboard for a while but never knew which to get. I think, from what you have said in the vides, the Keychron will be agreat entry point. I love the chiclet design that you see with Apple keyboards. My Dell keyboard has those style keys too. My biggest goal is to practice typing faster and touch typing because I'm always looking at the keyboard and my hands move way too much! Also, congratulations on your new PB! Gotta go fast!

That's awesome! With something like that uping your typing by a few words could save a lot of time

@MindedMarketing 3 года назад

@@AustinSchrock It saves sooo much time. I still practice everyday but I do see improvements. Just wish we could nicer keyboards lol

@bkrusz 3 года назад

To both increase typing speed and reduce the potential for RSI (repetitive stress injury), I would highly recommend using a wrist rest that is level with the keyboard you are using. Especially so with the taller and more angled mechanical keyboards. Much like playing piano, it is ideal and most comfortable to have your arms and wrists level with the keys on the keyboard.

I wonder if the time it takes to actually practice typing this fast leads to net gains in time overall. If you are transcribing, coding or copying over notes all day, then possibly. This is why typing speed used to be a number one skill of secretaries. The issue is for a lot of tasks, your typing speed can end up being faster than your writing speed. When ‘writing’ I’m crafting sentences, thinking of the best way of expressing my ideas, choosing words carefully. This slows down the process much more than my finger speed over the keyboard. So while typing quickly can be a useful skill, don’t spend ‘too’ much time practicing it unless you think its going to be useful to your specific line of work/study, as that time spent practicing could be used working on another skill.

@muCephei_ 3 года назад

I don't know about others but I find typing therapeutic, which is one reason I stay in this hobby. On another note, I'm surprised you're still in the prebuilt mech keyboards scene. You're missing out on some amazing typing experiences with different switches and boards you can make. But if you value your money more stay where you are. xD

Thanks for shortcut tips too. Great work. Feeling is everything as if we are happy, we type more. Also, in your testing, remember that as you practice, you get faster, so to be fair to the keyboards you need to begin with each one in the same typing state of mine and practice. (Being nitpicky now) You are such a darling that yous stir my mind. Love the pink, white blue look keyboard. Cherry blues? 140 words per minute? Great work all round, down, across, etc.

@skrillks975 3 года назад

It's not that you need more movement in a mechanical keyboard, it's just that you are bottoming out which is not necessary. The rest of the travel after the key press registers is only to avoid that impact and tire you less than if it was stopping flat. The force involved is directly related to the type of switch too so you can't generalize about mechanical keyboards, it gives the wrong image to the ones getting started in this community.

@jackgrylls1554 Год назад

As someone who can also type at around these speeds: Keyboard doesn't matter. As long the layout isn't weird and the keys aren't hard to press, you will be consistently the same across all keyboards after enough practice.
