Most keyboard reviews are about gaming. Can any of you recommend a good keyboard for coding/programming?

Here’s some criteria for selecting the keyboard:

  • Comfortable keys, easy to click and write coding quickly
  • Must be a bluetooth keyboard
  • Prefer using replaceable batteries instead of charging port
  • Full keyboard keys including function keys, arrow keys and numpad
  • Size can be compact or full-sized
  • Doesn’t matter if back-lit or not
  • Doesn’t matter if loud or quiet clicks
  • Budget around USD 50

    Actually, I have it the other way around. I bought the same keyboard I use at home for work as well. Imagine, you have to switch employers and get a new keyboard in the office. A nightmare!

    I am using a Planck keyboard (40% of the keys a regular keyboard has). This is way outside your 50,- €$£ price range, but I think, it is worth it: Fully customizable key layout and different more silent switches for work.

    I never would go wireless for a keyboard that is not connected to a TV. That reminds me, that I hate the mouse I have to use at work, it is wireless! I guess I buy a second G203 for work, too (without RGB). [=
