Our Verdict
Kensington Pro Fit Ergo Wireless Keyboard
Logitech Wave Keys
The Kensington Pro Fit Ergo Wireless Keyboard and the Logitech Wave Keys are full-size wireless keyboards with ergonomic designs. Both have curved key layouts that tent slightly toward the middle. They also both have integrated palm rests. The major difference is that the Kensington has a split design, with more distinct left and right key clusters. Additionally, it allows you to tilt the keyboard at a negative angle, sloping downward slightly away from you. Comparatively, the Logitech has a more compact design and keys spaced more closely together. It also has more conventional tilt options at a positive angle, sloping upward slightly away from you.

Kensington Pro Fit Ergo Wireless Keyboard vs Logitech Wave Keys: Main Discussion

Looking for a personalized buying advice from the RTINGS.com experts? Insiders have direct access to buying advice on our insider forum.
Don’t but Kensington ProFit Ergo no matter what. They have a severe keyboard problem in which the Calculator pops up randomly and very frequently. It’s a plague. Others have reported this problem. They’ve known about it for more than two years but haven’t fixed it and haven’t told anyone whether there is a work around. See https://www.kensington.com/p/products/electronic-control-solutions/wireless-ergonomic-keyboards/pro-fit-ergo-wireless-keyboard-and-mousegray3/#Customer-reviewsKensington has known about this problem for at least two years.
To make matters worse, their only help documentation is a .msi file. When I tried to get a utility to convert .msi files to pdf, eSet blocked it as unsafe. Why would any reputable company put documents in nonstandard file formats that are troublesome to get? I didn’t bother, because everything they publish that I can find is totally useless.
Add to that that Kensington email support sent me back a short robot generated email with terms that I’ve never heard of. Their FAQ is useless. Their customer service is disgraceful
