    I’ll never understand wireless keyboards. They just sit on the desk? Why go through the hassle of charging it?

      I hate wires in general. Everything that can be wireless IS wireless at my home.

      You can use the Keyboards cable to charge your phone, when that s full you can go back charging and using the keyboard with cable.

      as someone whos had wireless keyboards its not any better than a wired keyboard aside from it can die. so its kinda like a tomagotchi pet if youre into that

      The only wireless keyboard I can understand is something like the Corsair k63 with the lapboard attachment. I’ve got one with my second PC connected to my TV. It’s really pretty great!

      Even though my keyboard stays on my desk most the time, I have had wireless ones for years now because it’s much much much more convenient to be able to just pick it up and move it wherever or off my desk entirely when I need space in front of me (for projects, eating, etc). Yeah I have to charge it once every few weeks overnight when I’m not using it but considering my desk is also my only workspace for electronics and Lego and other hobbies, because I live in a small apartment, it’s a wonderful solution. Bonus that the cable which gets tucked away nicely can be used to charge several other things I keep on my desk / use all the time.
