Depending on your hand, modifier keys like ctrl or alt are not easily accessible and can create problematic key combos or a steep learning curve. This allow your fingers to extend horizontally as opposed to cramp together on a traditional keyboard.Ģ) Programmability: While you can use shift, ctrl or alt modifier keys to extend the range of useable keybinds, it isn’t the most ideal solution and soon you might run out of useable key combinations.
In addition, the keys on the Orbweaver are bigger and a bit extended. With the Orbweaver, both your wrist and palm are fully supported and does not easily fatigue over long periods of use. As a result, your wrist is placed on the hard table surface and your palm has very little support since it is arched over thin air. What exactly is the use of the gaming keypad when you have a keyboard?

In addition to the 20 programmable keys, the Orbweaver also features 8 keymaps, each can be programmed with a different setup for each of the 20 keys and side buttons. It has 20 fully programmable and backlit mechanical keys an 8 way Directional thumb pad (D-pad) adjuststable palm & wrist rest an easy to reach “thumb” key and spacebar actuator.
