So, what ergodox did I order? The thing is, on a standard QWERTY board, the space bar is something I never consciously think about. Christopher Coke Posted: Feb 20, 2019 1:00 PM Category: Hardware Reviews 0. When you start to dig around in the menus, you begin to see how deep the customizations go. If you ordered the ErgoDox EZ Shine or Glow, you can turn on the LED Lighting of your keyboard by pressing the “Lights on” switch located on Layer #1 (if using the default ErgoDox EZ Layout). I’ve been a fan of ZSA and the ErgoDox EZ for some time, but I still recall how crazy the idea of 32 layers sounded when I first heard it. It’s a cool concept and one I use regularly on my phone, but it’s harder to get used to for a touch typist like myself. Yet around me most days are people that swear by them. If you'd like Cherry MX Clear switches, please choose the ErgoDox EZ Shine or Original.

It’s comforting to know if anything does do wrong in the future, you can get inside easily enough and hopefully fix it! This setup is great on a number of levels. This was HUGE for me, since my day job steadfastly refuses outside installs but tweaking the layout is one of the biggest quirks to the ErgoDox EZ Glow. with the Freestyle, however, it is quite helpful, because otherwise the different layers/profiles cannot be recognised at all. There is also the Infinity ErgoDox which is a different fully built ErgoDox. With the models that include lighting (the ‘Glow’ model has per key lighting, the ‘Shine’ has LEDs at the back), you might employ the lighting as a visual signal that you have moved to a different layer. The Shine looked great with its LED strip underglow but the Glow definitely looks better with the upgraded backlighting. Let’s find out how. I currently spend an amount (albeit diminishing) of time switching backspaces to spaces and spaces to backspaces. I spent a few hours re-assigning keys and trying to decide on the best place to put ‘space’, ‘tab’ etc. The mad scientists among you might do just that but I’m not sure you would save much, and if you value your time, it would certainly be a fools errand. Also new with the Glow is he addition of per-key RGB lighting. I don’t just mean that you can assign different key codes to different physical keys, or even that you can create multiple layers. Required fields are marked *. So, yes, they work just fine.

One of the neatest features they’ve added is Auto Shift, which works a bit like your Android keyboard. ErgoDox EZ Glow Review - The Most Powerful Keyboard Ever?

The only parts that I feel could be improved are the cables and ties and cardboard for the inner packaging (which is plastic currently and perhaps doesn’t need to be). Not only is that drastically more than any other keyboard I’d heard of but I wondered, how would you even access that many layers without losing half of your keys in the process? Last March, we took our first look at the ErgoDox EZ Shine and were blown away by the huge array of possibilities the keyboard offered. I imagine that would be a PITA so I’m inclined to accept their better judgement. That’s a major bonus for me as it is something that TypingClub doesn’t cater for and a big part of my daily typing. It does however have LCD screens, which seems pretty cool but I’ve never tried one.

If you’ve never used an ErgoDox or other split keyboard before, get ready for a steep learning curve. A good proportion of the keycaps are blank so you’ll need to build many key locations into muscle memory.

The keycaps, made from PBT for the Glow variant, have a wonderful texture to them. If you spend a lot of time at your PC, the ErgoDox is a literal game changer.

Every time I speak to someone about the ErgoDox EZ people balk at the price: currently $369.00 with all the extras (you can get one sans extra goodies for $270). You can always add the Tilt Kit and Wing Rest later if needed. After the fact, you can count on their team to deliver superior support. If you look closely, you’ll also see that the keys are placed in columns without the slant of a normal keyboard, allowing your fingers to move in a natural forward and back motion. If you are likely to use the tilting kit, it would be wise to pick up the ‘Wing Rest’ too. You can manually adjust debounce time if you find yourself experiencing key chatter. Now, all of those keys can be sent just by holding the button 300ms longer. By default the space is the first tall key in the left-hand thumb cluster (with backspace next to it). It’s an investment.
