Dell Wired Keyboard - Black KB216 (580-ADMT)

This keyboard has really good typing dynamics. It is very quiet with no rattling or clicking. The key movement is good and stable. It has just enough resistance to not feel sloppy or get accidental key-presses, while being light enough to really enable fast typing and high-productivity. The design also makes it easy to clean. ***NOTE: Dell makes a palm-rest that snaps into the base to form an integrated pair. This palm-rest makes the keyboard about perfect. The only downside is that I couldn't find the palm-rest on Amazon and had to buy it direct from Dell for an additional $21 (shipping included).

Great wired keyboard! Quiet, lightweight and easy to plug in... Ruined my Dell Laptop keyboard, this is keeping megoing until can get it fixed. Would recommend!

Great keyboard, super quiet and short throw keys. Exactly like my previous version which I bought this to replace. The first keyboard I got had a few loud keys but they promptly sent me not one but two replacements to ensure I got a good one. Of course both were perfect, I just got unlucky with my first one. But seriously awesome customer service and would def buy again! Highly recommend the seller.

I've tried many keyboards over the past few years, one of them being a Corsair mechanical keyboard and another being a Reddragon one. While this Dell keyboard doesn't have the same feel or typing experience as those keyboards, I still like this one the best. The Dell keyboard is very simple with the only additional features being the media controls and num pad; I like this as I've never used the macro keys on the Corsair keyboard and it provides more functionality than the Red Dragon keyboard. I also appreciate the fact that the Dell keyboard has a matte finish, this makes it MUCH harder for fingerprints or scratches to show up. Now coming back to the typing experience, the keys are laser print so they'll wear off pretty quickly (For a $13 keyboard, you can't really complain), but other than that, it's great. The keyboard is very quiet so it won't bother anyone when you're typing in public and the keys also feel great to type on. They feel similar to the old Apple Magic Keyboard, but I do find that one to be more comfortable. Now for the downsides, I will say that my hands to get tired pretty quickly when typing on this keyboard, the cable seems to be pretty fragile, and it's not great for gaming. These are mostly minor nitpicks as if you're gentle with the cable, the keyboard will be fine. Overall, if you're looking for a decent keyboard for less than $15, this is more reliable than a wireless one, it's more durable than the Amazonbasics one, and it's good enough for home and office use. (This is my first time making a review so I do apologize if it's a bit disorganized)

I've been through many keyboards in my illustrious 15 years of computing,yep folks,got my first computer in 2001 and it's 2016 now,so you can do the math. Yep,I know,I may be a little late but better late then never right and my first Computer was a Dell,or well made by Dell,same thing I guess.I have a Dell now but it's not the same computer that I started with 15 years ago,wow imagine having a Pentium III running at 866 mhz,that would be a bit slow to say the least compared to today's standards. Any way I say that to say since I have had mostly Dell computers,I try and buy dell peripherals/hardware as well. I think doing it like this makes hardware compatibility easier.I've had other Dell keyboards in the past but this one seems to be the best one I've had thus far,I have to admit,I was a bit skeptical at first,I saw the pic of it and I said to myself, well,I don't know if that's for me but I'm glad I went ahead and bought it despite my skepticism. The price was right as well,I got this for $6 bucks and the s and h was $6 as well so it was $12 altogether,bought right here on ........Amazon.com! (cheap pop? Any rasslin fans reading this??)There really isn't much to say about this keyboard but I wanted to come here and review it any way because so far I'm loving it. I don't think my typing speed has improved over night?,hmm but for some reason it feels like I can type faster with this keyboard. This keyboard is similar to the keyboard on a laptop,meaning that the buttons take very little pressure to press,if that makes any sense,it's a little hard to explain but when you get the keyboard you'll see what I mean,so maybe that's where the speed increase comes in,I'm not really sure. I'm typing on it right now and it just feels so smooth compared to my last keyboard which was decent enough but the buttons got stuck after a while,by the way,it was a Dell keyboard as well.Any way in conclusion if you're skeptical,I say give it a try any way because you just never know you may end up loving it as I currently do. Also for under $15 bucks you really don't have alot to lose so if you want to apply the whole risk vs reward principle,I think the "risk" is definitely worth the "reward". I would definitely purchase this keyboard again,who knows maybe I'll get a spare one one day. Take care and happy shopping right here on .................Amazon. com :)

The media could not be loaded. This Dell Keyboard is exactly the same as the original keyboard that came with our Dell Desktop system. Worked perfectly!
