Title: Visual comparison: ErgoDox EZ, Truly Ergonomic Keyboard and Kinesis Freestyle
Post by: Sc0tTy on Sat, 08 July 2017, 15:52:52
Hi guys!

When I was hunting for my TEK replacement it was hard for me to visualize how big the EZ was compared to other keyboards.
As I prefer my keyboards as small as possible this was high on the list.
Now that I have my first EZ I thought it would be nice for any future buyers, so here is a visual comparison of the three keyboards.
Hope this helps somebody in their search for their next keyboard as I wasn't able to find it at the time.

Here is an overview of the collection (I forgot the little middle connector on the Freestyle though):

Good stuff..

I am thinking about getting another ergodox, might be getting the ez and then drill some holes for the tenting..
