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 :)

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).

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.

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 :)

I personally think feel and lack of mistakes are easily as important as raw speed when it comes to overall productivity.

Absolutely wonderful keyboards, if a bit ugly.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Mechanical keyboards can be hard on the fingers and--in my experience--can be more likely to cause repetitive strain injuries if you use one as your daily keyboard for writing. I would suggest getting O-rings for your mechanical keyboard if you plan on using it as your main tool as a writer. It really helps!

I have been following you for 2 years;you were my first significant student advice givers on this platform
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.

One point I would make, despite your aversion to the MX-Keys, is that it's portable. Every other keyboard you showed was ridiculously chunky for portability, the MX-Keys at least slips in to a laptop bag.

I love some of the keyboards like the IQ UNIX L80 and the IQ UNIX F96. I love your tips and agree. I also recommend typing without looking at the keyboard and focusing on accuracy when typing. I mean, if you make a lot of mistakes, you can't type fast, even if you use Ctrl+Backspace or Cmd+backspace.

You need to try out the Logitech g915. i averaged like 110 wpm on my previous keyboard and when i switched to it I gained like 25 wpm immediately. It is the best for typing in my opinion.

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.

4:55 This is consistently one of the first pieces of advice that I give to junior devs. Or at least, it's a part of that advice. Your keyboard is your friend, it will save you from so much work.
