The leader of 60% mechanical keyboard arrangement - KEMOVE K68 butterfly change

【Preface】

For e-sports players or programmers, apart from letters and numbers, other function keys are used only a handful of times. Too many keys will affect the speed of finger movement and reduce efficiency. Therefore, a mechanical keyboard with 60% configuration came into being. Compared with the common 104-key and 87-key mechanical keyboards, about 60% of the keyboards with 61 keys cancel the infrequently used keys such as F1-F12, and only keep the most commonly used keys, and the multi-layer layout realized through Fn can also realize all keyboard function.

Because of the simplification of the keys, 60% of the arranged keyboards have a small size, and have the exquisiteness, handsomeness and portability that a full-size keyboard has never had. In recent years, it has gradually become popular in the consumer market, and various peripheral manufacturers have launched corresponding products. Corsair, the leading brand in the peripheral industry, naturally cannot miss this new market. The K65 RGB mini is its latest 60% keyboard.
