X-Bows Knight Ergonomic Mechanical Keyboard

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Amazing!

"I'm completely happy, everything is Perfecto with this keyboard, the keys distribution, the weight, the lights, amazing for my developer work." - Jose G.

Ergonomic Design = Comfortable Typing

X-Bows' cross-linear design allows your wrists to sit at their natural angle while you type. Our key columns naturally align to the extension of your fingers. These combine to allow you to type more comfortably, for longer.

By moving the most frequently used modifier keys into the middle of the keyboard, we reduce how often you need to move your wrist while typing. This dramatically reduces fatigue over extended typing sessions.

Quality Build

X-Bows Knight Ergonomic Mechanical Keyboard features a one-piece aluminum body. It feels extremely sturdy and durable while you type on it. There is zero body flex and its substantial weight means that it will never slide around on your desk while you're typing.

We use premium Gateron key switches that are rated to last for 100 million actuations. All of our keyboard models use hot-swappable optical switches for added longevity and customizability.

We use double-shot spherical OEM keycaps that have been custom made for X-Bows. These keycaps feel both smooth and solid and have a very comfortable natural indentation.

Easy to Learn

X-Bows maintains the standard QWERTY arrangement, there is no need for you to memorize a different layout. Redundant modifier keys on the right side act as "training wheel" keys, which you can still fall back on.

New users have reported adjusting to the ergonomic design in under a week, some in as little as two days. We are confident this is one of the lowest learning curve ergonomic keyboards on the market.

Customizable

Supported driver software allows users to program macros, key remappings and RGB light settings directly onto the X-Bows' onboard storage. Take your setup with you at all times! You can find the software here.

Gateron Optical Switches

We've chosen Gateron optical switches for their acclaimed feel and their best-in-market durability. Our switches are "hotswappable", meaning that they can be replaced without damaging the keyboard. You can completely customize your X-Bows with different switch tactility in different areas of the keyboard.

We currently carry 11 different variations of Gateron switches. Each has a different feel and sound when typing. Brown and Silent Brown have historically been our best sellers.

X-Bows protects against RSI

Usage injuries like RSI (Repetitive Strain Injury) and carpal tunnel syndrome are surprisingly common in computer programmers, gamers, and other people who spend long hours on their computers.

X-Bows' ergonomic design puts your hands in their most natural position. Your fingers and wrists can sit at more comfortable, natural, straight angles. This will improve your work efficiency as well as your overall comfort.

Excellent

Promising keyboard for non modders

Great construction and layout. Lacks compatibility with qmk or tmk.

Round up from 4.6 Stars

If you like keyboards, just buy this now. Stop reading. Buy one. It's a unique experience that feels right in so many ways. I have a few minor niggles that make the board less-than-perfect to me.. if you are EXTREMELY picky and want an excuse not to try out the Knight, read below in the brackets. Aside from that, if you want an ergo-mech that *doesn't* look obnoxious there's really no other board that comes close.

I bought it with Gateron Blacks, which are nice and smooth. There isn't too much of a need for stabilizers due to the relatively smaller "big" keys, but they are all smooth and even (I honestly wonder if band-aid modding them would make them worse?). The case is elegant, as are the little rubber feet. Everything is solid in general. I like it all so much that I joined the DROP for the X-Bows Ranger to build a more generic TKL board (with the new NovelKeys Silk/Black switches). The keycaps *could* be thicker, but they're right for the price - great profile, font, and sound all things considered. With that said, I would pay out the nose for a GMK set specifically for this layout. To sum it up, the X-Bows Knight is very close to stock perfection.

[This has been my daily driver basically since I bought it, and I have gotten to the point where keyboards with normal layouts feel weird.. But I still have issues with the pinky rows. They're dropped down a hair too low that just makes both Z and ? uncomfortable. I also still have an extremely hard time not fat-fingering Enter when I really mean to hit B. Aside from this, I would prefer larger Spacebars which could take some of the AltKey real-estate. Same with the size of the Delete, PrintScreen, and (useless) Backspace keys to the right. I so very much wish they were down-sized to make room for Home and End. Yes, you can just reprogram buttons.. But I like my keys to be labeled correctly, and these keycaps are not easily replaced with another set.

I have some minor QC concerns as well. There are a couple of keycap stems that came cracked.. I haven't checked them all (as this would potentially make it worse), just the few I pulled off to see what other switches feel/sound like in this chassis. My normal WPM is usually at or above 90, but these hangups drag me down towards 60.

Final issue is the lighting - I just want a macro to cycle through solid colors to pick white instead of green. I don't want to download software, flash the board, whatever.. I just want to be able to choose this out-of-the-box.]

Love it!

Este teclado ha sido fenomenal. Ha mejorado mi productividad en la cuarentena y lo amo. ¡Gracias!

Small footprint ergo silent keyboard excelent in many ways

I still haven't discerned how to map key-chords. Things like it doesn't appear the meta-keys are handled in the normal fashion in the X-Bows keymapper.

The key placement of the QWERTY area is very good, other areas aren't as well thought out.

The keys are too wide, the space keys too narrow. Both should be sized proportional to their use frequency.
The keys are smaller than usual, but it doesn't seem to cause trouble.
I question omitting and while retaining .
at the upper right is too large given there are two keys for this function on the keyboard.

THE key should be includable in chord keymappings except for those keys X-Bows reserved on the FN function description legend sheet. Allowing FN to be a meta key for limited user use would help on Windows in particular as Microsoft reclaims many of the keyboard chords for themselves.
