Marketing Information

As the market leader in computer ergonomics, Kinesis has been designing and building premium-grade ergonomic keyboards for more than 25 years. The all-new Form Split Touchpad Keyboard features a fixed split design with an integrated Windows Precision Touchpad making it the ultimate all-in-one ergonomic keyboard for the home, office, or the road.

Ergonomics

  • Fixed-split design positions the arms at approximately shoulder-width to keep wrists straight and perpendicular to the home row to reduce abduction and ulnar deviation.
  • The low-profile case and mechanical switches (0.75" tall) reduce stressful bending of the wrists. Pair it with a 3rd party "wrist rest" for even more support.
  • The integrated Windows Precision Touchpad makes it easy to point, click, scroll and Gesture without having to reach for a mouse and strain your neck and shoulders.
  • Low profile mechanical switches are low force (50g) and full-travel (3.2mm)for less finger strain and fewer impact


Aluminum Case

The Form is CNC machined from premium aluminum giving it incredible strength and durability, but without the excess weight. Perfect for tossing in a travel bag or suitcase.

Bluetooth or USB

The Form features multi-channel Bluetooth so you can pair it with 2 different devices (PC, Tablet, Smart Phone, Smart TV etc) and toggle between then with the flip of a switch. If you prefer a wired connection, simply use the included USB-C to USB-A cable to connect to any device with a full-size USB port.

Layout

The Form features a standard Windows laptop layout, only better.

  • Full-size function keys (F1-F12)
  • Full size arrow keys
  • Full-size navigation keys (Home/End, Page Up/Page Down)
  • Media Actions (Volume Control, Track Selection, Screen Brightness)
  • SmartTV actions (launch TV, launch Browser, launch Menu)


Backlighting

To support gaming and working in low-light environments, the Form features global white backlighting with 4 brightness settings. To extend battery life, the backlight can be disabled with a simple command.
