Is a 61 key keyboard problematic for daily use ... as it is only gaming restricted or no ?

I love small keyboards to be honest, they offer a lot more desk space and are quite practical. I hardly used my numpad, if at all, on my old full sized board so exchanging the smaller board with less functions for more desk space is something I won't ever regret.

Even I don’t use multiple keys .. does it affect coding programming etc ?  And any hand /wrist strains ?

It's not gaming restricted. It's even better for typing in certain areas. You just don't have a numpad and the middle useless keys

The keys are in a standard layout which means it'd be the same as your current keyboard just with less keys.

If you ever need to you use the function keys and what not, just buy a cheap full sized board and plug it in when you need it.

Or just use them on the 60%. I've never seen a 60% that didn't let you use all the keys through function layers.
