Get it here: UltimateHackin...
Yes, today I genuinely review a split, ergonomic keyboard :p . Or at least, I try to! The Ultimate Hacking Keyboard was a daring donation from a company for me to take a look at. Hope you enjoy the video! :)
My keyboard reviews: bit.ly/1TbOtft
My switch teardowns: bit.ly/2C1QGHz
My TOP X videos: bit.ly/2FmpZfd
My XL typing demos: bit.ly/2OoAW3w
My tutorials and featurettes: bit.ly/2OrkLUh
My unboxing videos: bit.ly/2TSrr0m
I'm Thomas and I do videos and reviews on mechanical keyboards ranging from the most sickening modern RGB gaming keyboards to vintage hardware relics, or sometimes keycaps or keyswitches ranging from Cherry MX to Alps SKCM to IBM buckling springs and anything in between.
Follow me on Twitter for updates on my keyboard videos! / chyrosran22
The practice sentence was: "Hello my name is Thomas and I'm typing on a UHK right now. Ermagherd, an ergonomic keyboard that I can actually use by just ignoring all the ergonomic features, excellent!"

@@fattestallenalive7148 Touch typing is literally typing just using your "Touch" feeling and you don't look at the keys when you type. Yes, looking at the keyboard will generally slow efficiency since you would have to be actively looking for the specific keys to press whilst simultaneously, trying to look and type words on your screen as fast as possible. Touch typing isn't necessarily going to make you a fast typist but just makes typing more muscle-memory and intuitive in a sense. You don't need to learn how to touch type to be fast but it can definitely make you type faster, assuming you are typing accurately, since you would only need to focus on the words on the screen and not both the keyboard and the screen.

When is cherry going to come out with something comparable to Kailh Box or other clone innovations? Cherry is lagging behind on their own switch.

I know that these indie keyboard companies are largely trying to stand out by offering bigger feature sets, but if you ask me, a company that wants to make a splash in the hobby can probably do so best by offering the range of BOX switches, especially if they could be the first to offer specialty BOX switches like Pinks, Jades, or Navies in an off-the-shelf pre-built keyboard. Those three, along with the three BOX heavy switches, are at least not that much more expensive than the base BOX switches. Some of them probably requires having to deal with NovelKeys as the middleman, but introducing these switches to a mainstream consumerbase could completely change the landscape of switch preferences and marketing. It'd open the floodgates to having other specialty switches put in mainstream keyboards and allowing economies of scale to finally bring down prices on Gateron Inks, BOX Royals, or Creams.

I look forward to seeing you do the ergonomical review, I should be able to handle the fruity language, as I tend to use it when my computer plays up. Seriously, you should consider reading books for Audible or similar companies, your voice is very calming especially when listening on headphones. Truly a rare gift, just saying. Take care and stay safe, in these troubled times.

For those who are curious, I alternate between an ortholinear Ergodox and Planck then back to standard layouts boards such as my Model M or this DasKeyboard. It's actually not hard to alternate, although they require different techniques, slightly. Practically speaking, what orthos do is force you to use the "right" finger for the job - you should be curling your middle finger down to hit C, as per "proper touch typing" - there's no such thing as proper typing when it comes to speed or accuracy, but this does cut down on big wrist movements where you might be tempted to reach over with your right or tilt your left hand to hit that C with another finger. It works best in an ergonomic split board that accommodates your natural shoulder width and arm angle (Ergodox) but can be downright infuriating and awkward with a small single board (Planck) because you have to bring your hands all the way in and curve your wrists OUT just to align with the home row. If you're already touch typing with the keyboard at an ergonomically good distance from your body, or have a split board, then ortholinear makes greats sense, it's perfectly suited for that. However, if you're used to going crazy with the "frantic spider" typing technique, you'll be frustrated at first with ortho-boards, split or otherwise, that are different and optimized for "correct" finger usage. In other words, ortholinear layout makes sense for something like the Dox, but it's questionable in a single-piece board that forces you to bring your hands into your centerline. In my opinion, anyway. As for which is better, it entirely depends on how you type, how important it is for you to avoid certain wrist and finger movements, even your hand size, and what kind of keyboard you have. As you can tell, I write a lot and the hours of writing can take a huge toll if I'm using a standard layout. And I can directly compare because I'm switching between ergos/orthos and standard, and QWERTY and QGMLWY all day. Most people aren't professional typists and even some coders don't type that much, or they have *young supple bodies* that can weather the abuse, so they don't understand the need for ergonomic layouts or logical layouts like Colemak - and then get unnecessarily snarky to defend their own preferences. One of the reasons I like Thomas' videos is that he doesn't do that. Unless you're a fan of the My First Keyboard or that fuck-awful projection keyboards or something. But while ergos seem strange at first, they can be learned quickly and do have immediate benefits. It's not like learning to type on a blank Dvorak, it's just using your middle finger more than you probably already do to hit the C key and stuff.

What I think is very funny that even if you don't use ergonomic keyboards, when you type you position your hands in a such a way that would actually lend itself to a split keyboard. Your left arm is positioned to the left and slightly up, forcing your left hand to be rotated slightly inwards. I understand that you're not used to the split keyboard layout, but I think that you could get used to it fairly easily.

Aha! This is my main board, and I love it to pieces (sorry). I was developing strong RSI and wanted an ergonomic board, but my work occasionally required me to use a normal keyboard, often have other people use my keyboard, and also travel quite a bit. Hardware-Dvorak and programmability were ideal, but not compulsory. The UHK fit all my needs perfectly; my hands feel so much better, my co-workers aren't too displeased, and I don't need to use the blasted laptop keyboard on the train.

I really do love this keyboard but the development time to delivery was simply too long. Been waiting on the key clusters for 3 years now. I've since gone with a custom built ortho split board as my daily driver. Still, absolutely no arguments that the build quality of the UHK is phenomenal. Throw a custom keycap set on it and you're nearing Endgame. Will probably sell my UHK once I get the key clusters, but I'll do so knowing it will probably make someone very happy to use without having to solder like I ended up doing on my board.

Seems to me like the Kinesis Advantage 2 (or whatever it's actually called) got the "ergonomic" aspect more correct, even though the layout looks like something out of some Lovecraftian nightmare. Though I could see my hands being much more comfortable on that than something like this...and I think the KA2 is also less expensive, or at most, around the same price point as this one, though this one does seem to be infinitely more programmable for those that are into that type of thing. :P

I honestly love the shape of the MS Natural keyboard, and had a few of them over the years, but the key feel being cheap domes is pure poop, same with the build quality with all of them I've owned either having keys that just stopped working, or feet that where very thin, and broke over time. Shame as if they where built better I would still be using one to this day to be honest, even as a Linux user. Also just to be known I have small collection of Microsoft hardware such as mice, keyboards, joystick, gamepads(from the original PC Sidewinder to XB1 gamepads), etc., and I wish their software was as good as most of their hardware(MS Natural keyboard series not withstanding as again it's poop build quality).

Given that it is intending to optimize ergonomics and apparently also the usage of realstate, being just a 60%, I find the upper angled "wings" or brows + the red displays to be completely off, pretty bad choices in a design like this. Btw too pricey, even at the discounted mentioned price of $275, although I understand designs like this have extra costs compared to "typical" keyboards. A better redirection of the costs could have been better feet height customizability, so that not only negative tilting was an option, but possibly also side-ways angling. That would apply a lot more to a keyboard like this, compared to that display or even the wrist rest. The latter looks pretty nice indeed though, but a wrist rest complicates the angling options. Also, I think if using a wristrest, nothing beats a simple rolled small towel, or in a case like this, possibly two of them. I don't think wristrest(s) should be a mandatory accessory of any keyboard. It would just inflate the cost, and some users will prefer alternatives to whatever the keyboard comes with

In the typing demo, I think I can see why egonomic keyboards are wasted on you. Ergonomic keyboards seem to be designed on the principle that they should be twisted to match the way your hands naturally rest; however, you seem to have an unusual typing style where your fingers hover over the keyboard in a naturally curved position. I like the idea of ergonomic keyboards, and I'd like to experiment with them, but sometimes I wonder if we'd just be better off sticking with flat keyboards, and changing the way we type instead .... (Well, we in general; you may already type in a more ergonomic way! ;-)

@@SimGunther you'd have to have a lot more money than common sense to waste your money on 'muh ergonomics'. It's a different story for mice, obviously, as they can really harm your wrists if they don't suit your hands. But with keyboards? Come on. Ergonomic keyboards have been memed time and again and it has remained as much of a hoax as Dvorak.

Those Microsoft Ergo keyboards are trash, horrible keyboards with horrible ergonomics, the spacebar is huge and unwieldy. The ultimate hacking keyboard looks interesting, I'Ve been eyeing an Ergodox but the lack of a function key row is something that is keeping me from pulling the trigger. I am well aware that keyboards like this have layers but I don't want an extra keypress for function keys.

Good review of an absolutely GARBAGE keyboard. Money hungry greed driven sociopaths. $300? For what? It isn't in any way actually "ergonomic", and wtf does it do to make it the ultimate for "hacking"? $100 for a WRIST REST? Do they think they are Apple? Let's sell a $300 keyboard, make them screw in their own feet, NOT give them enough feet, charge them $100 for the (nice soft comfortable SOLID WOOD) wrist rest, and if they want the only interesting thing about it (the modules) then let's bring the total up to $475 ($525 if you'd like a module on both sides). Yes, you won't be able to read the abs keys surfaces after a year, because we intentionally chose to manufacture them in the cheapest and worst way possible, but we can sell them upgrades and replacements!
