HP Pavilion 600

Nice and practical but some funny choices

The keyboard is aesthetically pleasing, well finished and professional looking. The typing is very quiet, as quiet if not quieter than on an Apple keyboard. The multi-media keys are easy to use, and HP has gone a long way in providing shortcuts to search, display virtual notches, connect to external monitors, access the control panel, the calculator, show/hide the desktop (like Expos on the Mac), display the notification pane, lock the session. The multimedia keys can be remapped to function keys without pressing Fn (or vice versa) with PowerToys, see my detailed answer in the Q/R tab. The key is located at the bottom right instead of the second ctrl key which has disappeared, the Numlock key is replaced by a key that does a "paste". There are in fact 14 function keys, the equivalent of F13 is the Printscreen key (this one is replaced in the usual Printscreen / Scroll lock / Pause trio by a "Clear" key which I haven't found the use of yet). The equivalent of the F14 key is a shortcut to Print (equivalent to ctrl P). I'm not sure if there are still people in 2021 who print so much paper that they need to be assigned a key. Finally, it is regrettable that the spacing between the main typing area, the "3-key" column (the column where the directional arrows are located), and the number pad column, is very narrow (the same spacing as between the typing keys). So of course the mouse is now 2 cm closer to your right hand which may limit RSI.

Worst purchase

After only 10 days of use, it is impossible to use it correctly... there are lags all the time. And this lag as you can see repeats the last key used. For such a price, it's scandalous.

Excellent keyboard for programming

Excellent build quality:
- the whole is solid, no cracking noise
- the characters are engraved (often stickers in this price range)
- the keyboard is stable when typing

Big plus: it is not Bluetooth, it is a receiver with radio waves. So the keyboard reacts perfectly to the exit of old or in a walk in the BIOS.

This keyboard made me forget about other more prestigious brands... and especially about the debacles of Bluetooth!

I'm very pleased with the quality of this keyboard.
Thanks again for the SUPER fast delivery
