17 Laptop Mechanical Keyboard

My job has me working from home, and in 6 different offices, some days I can't guarantee which location I'll be the following day. I finally was fed up with just dealing with whatever dusty, used mouse & keyboard might be available in whatever office I was in and bit the bullet to get a good set I could take with me anywhere for consistency. (I did buy a separate rigid clamshell case for the keyboard & mouse to keep from damaging them in my backpack) I've enjoyed using mechanical keyboards for years, from an IBM mechanical keyboard in the late 80s-90s, and a few with Cherry MX Blue switches for my PC since 2010. I hate standard laptop keys and membrane keyboards. The MX Mechanical is a joy to type on and the shortcut keys are a welcome addition (dedicated calculator app button especially). The MX Master 3S is extremely comfortable to use, and the horizontal scroll wheel is convenient since I'm in excel & Google spreadsheets for most of the day. The fact that these are both wireless and share the same USB receiver has made my setup/packup less stressful, no longer fumbling with wires and multiple usb plugs. The USB receiver stays in my laptop and I just flick the on/off switch for the Keyboard and Mouse at the start/end of my work day.

I'm using this on my standing office desk with a 17 MacBook Pro laptop. The height range seems reasonable, and although the tilt angle is fixed, it seems okay. The stand feels sturdy. I put it together backwards (with the brackets facing out instead of in) which better accommodates the width of my laptop. Office phone fits underneath no problem. I use it with a Bluetooth keyboard, and I'm so keyboard-centric that reaching up for the track pad when needed hasn't been too much of a hassle yet. I'm using this at a fixed work station. Taking it apart for mobile applications could be feasible, but it would take a minute.

It gives you the nice, clean feeling of a mechanical keyboard, but it's silent!!

Great entry level mechanical keyboard

Great mechanical keyboard. Love the preset lighting options.
