It took a little while to get used to the smooshed layout. For the first week or two I kept hitting numlock when reaching for backspace. But I did get used to it and I enjoy having nearly all the keys (no print screen, FYI) with a footprint about the same as my old TKL board.
Nah, I just brought a full form factor from eagletec and customised it a bit for sound dampening and added pudding caps, which was its own headache as I’m in the UK so my layout is just off what most cap sets are made for, lol.
I have a wired FL-Esports FL-980, which I love at the price I paid ($45 “used” board on Amazon + $15 aliexpress keycaps + $30 switches). Even if I hadn’t sprung for the keycaps or switches, it came with Kailh Box Whites (same as this 8bitdo IIRC) and some decent double-shot PBT Dolch keycaps (if a little thin) in Cherry profile. They make a wireless, but I’m not sure I love it as much at 2x or 3x the price of my bargain basement board. The basic types you’re looking for are called “96%” or “1800” though.
Any suggestion on a smaller form factor wireless *with a numpad?
