Ask HN: Can't find a non-Apple slim keyboard with standard layout and no num pad

1 points by machinesbuddy 6y ago ↗ HN

I'm looking for a slim keyboard (not mechanical preferably) that has a standard layout just without numpad. Whatever I find has these small arrow keys beside Ctrl and below Shift.

In other words, the slim (and probably non-mechanical) version of Logitech G Pro (https://www.logitechg.com/en-roeu/products/gaming-keyboards/pro-gaming-keyboard.html)

Can you recommend me one?

Nop, it's not a standard layout, something like Apple Magic Keyboard (the big one) just without numpad. Or simply just a slim version of this layout: https://www.logitechg.com/en-roeu/products/gaming-keyboards/...

Is this what you're looking for https://matias.store/products/fk308b ?

I don't vouch for it; it just happens to be the first hit for "Apple tenkeyless keyboard".

Very close but this is just a copy of Apple layout. If their quality is good that should work.

But thanks for the "tenkeyless" keyword

What about the Lenovo ThinkPad usb keyboard?

Yeah, I really should give it a try. I'm just looking for something standard though.
