Dell Wired Keyboard - Black KB216 (580-ADMT)

This keyboard has really good typing dynamics. It is very quiet with no rattling or clicking. The key movement is good and stable. It has just enough resistance to not feel sloppy or get accidental key-presses, while being light enough to really enable fast typing and high-productivity. The design also makes it easy to clean. ***NOTE: Dell makes a palm-rest that snaps into the base to form an integrated pair. This palm-rest makes the keyboard about perfect. The only downside is that I couldn't find the palm-rest on Amazon and had to buy it direct from Dell for an additional $21 (shipping included).

This keyboard is perfect for anyone with a desktop computer or while connecting multiple monitors using this keyboard all of college and the keyboard’s layout is well put together, it is compatible with any windows laptop you would have and is the perfect price for you.Layout- Overall, the keys are spaced out which makes it easy for you to type and with minimal typing errors.- The buttons aren’t in any confusing shapes that the normal computer user would not be used to. The letter, number, punctuation, andarrow keys are all perfect squares. The functions such as shift and enter are all rectangles.- The elevation of the keys causes a click noise when pressed which is satisfying for some but also too loud for others. It is just your preference.Compatibility- This keyboard can be plugged into any windows of your windows computers with a standard USB drive.- If you have used a dell computer this keyboard has the same exact layout you would find on a laptop except just a tad more spaced out.- The keyboard uses a wire to plug into the USB port which makes it just one piece and easy to keep track of. On the other hand, the wire can cause some clutter on your desk surface.Durable for its low price- There have been no problems with the keys getting stuck or seeing wear and tear after a couple of years of me using it.- The rubber bottoms that prevent the keyboard from sliding across the desk surface while you type and the bottoms have yet to fall off I have been using it.- The keyboard its self is highly affordable if you are just looking for something that is not flashy but still get the job done for you.

I got this for my slow PC, and it works and is much faster now, especially during startup, and provides a lot of space to save all my college assignments.

Mechanically this keyboard is pretty good given the budget price. Key assignments leave something to be desired for me. If you don't see it inscribed on the keys, the key codes don't get sent. The numlock keys work but don't seem to do anything if not in numlock. The most important functions work so for me it's good enough to keep. Also wish the raised portions of F and J keys were raised more so they'd be easier to feel for touch typing.

Nice and quiet. Functions well.

Great wired keyboard! Quiet, lightweight and easy to plug in... Ruined my Dell Laptop keyboard, this is keeping megoing until can get it fixed. Would recommend!

I've been through many keyboards in my illustrious 15 years of computing,yep folks,got my first computer in 2001 and it's 2016 now,so you can do the math. Yep,I know,I may be a little late but better late then never right and my first Computer was a Dell,or well made by Dell,same thing I guess.I have a Dell now but it's not the same computer that I started with 15 years ago,wow imagine having a Pentium III running at 866 mhz,that would be a bit slow to say the least compared to today's standards. Any way I say that to say since I have had mostly Dell computers,I try and buy dell peripherals/hardware as well. I think doing it like this makes hardware compatibility easier.I've had other Dell keyboards in the past but this one seems to be the best one I've had thus far,I have to admit,I was a bit skeptical at first,I saw the pic of it and I said to myself, well,I don't know if that's for me but I'm glad I went ahead and bought it despite my skepticism. The price was right as well,I got this for $6 bucks and the s and h was $6 as well so it was $12 altogether,bought right here on ........Amazon.com! (cheap pop? Any rasslin fans reading this??)There really isn't much to say about this keyboard but I wanted to come here and review it any way because so far I'm loving it. I don't think my typing speed has improved over night?,hmm but for some reason it feels like I can type faster with this keyboard. This keyboard is similar to the keyboard on a laptop,meaning that the buttons take very little pressure to press,if that makes any sense,it's a little hard to explain but when you get the keyboard you'll see what I mean,so maybe that's where the speed increase comes in,I'm not really sure. I'm typing on it right now and it just feels so smooth compared to my last keyboard which was decent enough but the buttons got stuck after a while,by the way,it was a Dell keyboard as well.Any way in conclusion if you're skeptical,I say give it a try any way because you just never know you may end up loving it as I currently do. Also for under $15 bucks you really don't have alot to lose so if you want to apply the whole risk vs reward principle,I think the "risk" is definitely worth the "reward". I would definitely purchase this keyboard again,who knows maybe I'll get a spare one one day. Take care and happy shopping right here on .................Amazon. com :)

It’s a Dell product. Works as described.
