Product Information

One thing that it is possible to tweak is the keyboard's angle, by extending the two feet located on the bottom of the device at the left and right corners. During my testing, I found it more comfortable (and more laptop-like) to leave the feet folded, for a shallower angle. Easy Setup and Connections

During 20 yeas of thinkpad-use I've NEVER seen keys/keycaps coming off! I know they are protected in the bag when you close the laptop, but hey, I do not think their keyboard is this senstive. I don't think just a simple wrapping would protect this keyboard. The function keys perform all of these actions by default, but you can also activate the regular F1 to F12 functions by pressing the Fn key first. As ThinkPad custom dictates, the Fn key is located in the lower left corner of the keyboard, to the left of the Ctrl key. People who would rather have the Ctrl key be the left-most one in the bottom row can swap the functions of the Ctrl and Fn keys on some Lenovo laptops, but that isn’t possible on this keyboard.

Using the 10FastFingers Typing Test, I managed a solid 98 words per minute, which is in my typical range, with a slightly higher-than-normal 6% error rate.

No matter what era or type of ThinkPad you buy, its keyboard will look very similar to any other, whether it’s one of the first models to roll off IBM’s assembly line in Yamato, Japan, in 1992, or the cutting-edge ThinkPad P1 mobile workstation. There have been a few changes throughout the years, such as spacing the keys farther apart, but Lenovo has wisely abstained from complete reinvention. While Swift Pair is clearly the most effortless connection option, not all PCs support it. You can also establish a Bluetooth connection the old-fashioned way. First, you slide the wireless-mode switch on the keyboard’s rear edge to Bluetooth mode and hold it there for one second to enter pairing mode. Then, find the keyboard in the list of devices in your PC’s Bluetooth settings, and follow the prompts to connect. Before I joined the tech-journalism ranks, I wrote on topics as diverse as Borneo's rain forests, Middle Eastern airlines, and Big Data's role in presidential elections. A graduate of Middlebury College, I also have a master's degree in journalism and French Studies from New York University. If you slide the wireless-mode switch in the other direction, you can connect using the included 2.4GHz wireless receiver. Remove the receiver from its holder on the rear edge of the keyboard and insert it into an available USB Type-A port on your PC. If you’d like to use the keyboard with two separate devices, you can use both 2.4GHz and Bluetooth, switching the active connection between the two by moving the wireless-mode slider.Lenovo workstation PCs deliver powerful graphics needed for professional applications, or even unprofessional ones.

PS:Mine does have CTRL key in the right place, I don't know what's up assigning the FN key in the most prominent place, it's not even re-assignable, it's quite difficult to find right keyboards)
