Why do you like wireless keyboards?

[L. f]

Why do you like wireless keyboards? I only see disadvantages in them.

[RollinLower]

i don't own one, but i really want to convert my wired self made board to a wireless PCB.

i sometimes kick my feet up onto my desk, and it would really be more ergonomic to just be able to put the board upon my lap.

also, you can just keep it plugged in when using it on the desk, but keep the freedom to use it when it's unplugged.

IFFF the connection is fast and secure it means less clutter on le desk

I've never noticed any sort of latency delay in the ones I have used. I think you'll only find that with very cheap or old wireless keyboards. Apart from that, what disadvantages are you referring to?

 

I like them because wireless reduces clutter and are much easier to handle.

Doesn't Logitech now have their wireless latency down to around 1 ms now anyways, rendering if effectively the same as a wired connection?

Yup, Corsair to. I bet some other brands I don't know about also.

But I also dont notice it on older more latent wireless peripherals

I hate wires. Hell, I'd love it if literally everything was wireless.

I don't.

 

But the reason people might are:

1. no cable clutter

2. easier to move around

3. easy to take keyboard with your

4. possibility to move further away from desk

5. you don't care about having to replace the batteries once a year (if you get a decent keyboard).
