Title: Filco ninja 2 or KCB poker keyboard?
Post by: vienbo on Fri, 13 January 2012, 22:15:29

I'm looking for a portable keyboard that has the best feeling of typing. I need to know which is better and portable to take in a laptop bag. The bag is for laptops that are 15.6 inches, but I need to know if the stabilizers in kcb poker are similar feeling to the filco ninja, so I can save a good amount of money. However, if it is really worth using the filco over the KCB and it's not that bad for portability (The TKL version) then I'll be glad to buy it. *I own a leopold fullsize btw, so I want a mechanical keyboard*

Poker should feel closer to Leopold(same stabiliser). Though, take note that Poker is PCB mounted where as FILCO&Leopold are plate-mounted. There will be some different between the typing feel.

For portability in a 15.6" bag, I suggest better go for Poker. Poker only weight around 500g, which is half of that of FILCO.
