Nulea RT07 Wireless Ergonomic Trackball Keyboard – Bluetooth and 2.4G USB Connectivity, Natural Typing, Wrist Rest,Split Keyboard, USB-C Rechargeable,Compatible with Mac/Windows

Amazing
Instead of paying over 100 this keyboard is excellent I have 2 computers that I am using and from receiver to Bluetooth it works. I also have the mouse too.

still a bit rough around the edges, steep learning curve on the mouseball
[Edit: changing from 3 to 4 stars after further use] The mouseball is a lot easier to use after some practice, I still think that it would be more ergonomic with the mouseball moved to above the spacebar, but it is much less tiring to my wrists than moving between a mouse and keyboard all day. I added little folded pieces of tape to the enter and backspace keys and that made it useable in XR. It would still be much much better with backlights like other Nulea keyboards. Also the function keys on the top should have the secondary options (volume, play/pause, etc… be default) like in other Nulea keyboards. Having to hold function to change the volume is annoying additional friction.I really like what Nulea is going for here, as I want to use ergonomic keyboards with builtin mouse functionality for using with XR glasses. However, this specific implementation is still a bit rough around the edges.1. The “b” key seems to take about twice as much pressure to register a press as the other keys, which makes typing weird. That might just be a defect specific to mine, I am not sure if it occurs across other keyboards of this model or not. I’m assuming there’s slight warping or something due to where the mouse buttons are installed. I am unsure if this defect is specific to the one I got, or if it is an issue with this model in general.2. This keyboard would be much better if it was backlit. I got the device with the integrated mouseball since I use Nulea ergo keyboards while working in XR glasses. It would be much easier to use for this purpose if the keys were backlit like other Nulea keyboards, such that I can see them through my XR glasses. Without the backlight, I must rely on muscle memory, which is fine since I’ve been using this Nulea layout for a while (using their other models). But if I was not already familiar with this layout, the lack of backlight would make the device unusable for this purpose.3. A larger battery would be nice. These keyboards are large (which is great for me, I have large hands) but seem to have a very small battery. This device is large and heavy enough, that it should be able to incorporate a much larger battery and therefore have much better battery life (even with backlights) without effecting the ergonomics/size/weight significantly.4. The possitioning of the mouse clicker buttons is awkward and feels unnatural. The way they are position, you click the left mouse button with your left pointer finger, and the right mouse button with your right pointer finger. This just feels way different than other devices. Maybe I’ll get used to it, but I think they should experiment more with mouse button placement.Overall, I love the idea that Nulea is going for with this, and if they iterate and improve a bit, they could have something awesome. But in its current state, the device needs a bit more refinement before it really feels ergonomic.

The trackball is so bad it ruins the rest of the keyboard.
Avoid this as the trackball is erratic and unusable. The keyboard itself is very comfortable with a nice wrist rest but you cannot get past just how BAD the trackball is. Stop selling these.

The split ergonomic layout really does help with wrist strain, especially if I’m typing on it for a whole day, but switching between this and a regular keyboard does confuse my brain a little so if you’re getting one for home, you may find yourself needing to get a second one for the office as well.The built-in trackball is a cool idea and convenient for quick cursor movement. I found myself really liking it when I’m doing low intensity work or just in spreadsheets where it’s more convenient not to have to move my hands off the keyboard. I’d never want to do anything precise or use it for extended periods of time though, I just don’t find it as effective as a mouse for that in terms of browsing speed… but this doesn’t need to replace your mouse completely!The connectivity is very good. I connected this via bluetooth and the connection was completely stable and solid.

This spacious, full-sized keyboard boasts a split, ergonomic design, a trackball, and an integrated wrist rest for added comfort. The wrist rest is comfortable and padded with a leather-like exterior. It is not removable, however, so that’s something to be aware of as the keyboard has quite a large footprint.The keyboard is rechargeable with a built-in battery and connects wirelessly to your device via either the included USB dongle or Bluetooth. Charging is convenient via USB-C (the charging cable is included) on the top edge. The battery life seems pretty solid as I haven’t yet needed to recharge it since the initial charge.There is a storage space on the top edge of the keyboard that holds the included USB dongle if it’s not being used. There are also four adjustable feet on the rear that allow you to angle the keyboard’s front or rear edge upwards.Connecting the keyboard to my iPad using Bluetooth went without a hitch, as did the dongle connection to a laptop. It supports up to three Bluetooth devices and a USB device, making it easy to switch between them using the function commands on the keyboard. The wireless functionality is great as it allows you to set the keyboard aside when not used and free up desk space for other tasks, or lean back and use it in your lap, etc.The keys have slight indentations with a pleasing satin-like feel. They are low-profile and quiet, providing satisfying tactile feedback.The ergonomic shape instantly feels natural and comfortable to rest your hand on the keyboard and its armrest. The keyboard’s contours naturally follow your hand and finger position, ensuring a comfortable and efficient typing experience.This design, however, demands a certain level of proper typing technique. If you’re usually a “pecker” who bounces your fingers across the keyboard and crosses sides, you won’t likely benefit much from this shape. If you’re familiar with the keys and can type without excessive hand movement, this design is a nice upgrade.The integrated trackball functions well. It does feel a little more sluggish when connected via Bluetooth, however. The ball feels like it has some weight to it and spins smoothly, but unlike the keyboard shape, I don’t feel it’s as ergonomically efficient, compared to a normal mouse or separate trackball device. It brings your right hand close to the other and can feel rather awkward to use, being in the middle of the keyboard with the buttons and scroll wheel above it a short distance. If you haven’t used a trackball before, there is also a bit of a learning curve before it feels natural like a mouse.The trackball being built into the keyboard can be convenient to free up desk space or to use in your lap, etc. It isn’t bad for moderate use, but think a separate mouse is still more efficient and comfortable for heavier usage.Overall, this keyboard is well-constructed with good features and functionality. The design is good for typists, and the integrated trackball frees up the need for another device if you can get used to it.

A standard keyboard had my nephew’s wrists filing daily complaints, so this ergonomic trackball setup strolled in like the new manager and immediately improved workplace conditions. The split layout looks a little sci-fi at first, but it lets his hands sit in a natural position that does not have his forearms plotting revenge by the end of the day. The built-in wrist rest makes it feel more like his hands are on a cushioned lounge chair than on office equipment.The real star for him is the trackball. Instead of shoving a mouse around the desk, he just rolls the ball with his thumb and keeps his hand relaxed in one place. He swears it is a game-changer, both for comfort and for quickly zipping around the screen. Once he got used to it, going back to a regular mouse felt like going back to dial-up internet.Typing on it feels smooth and quiet, thanks to the scissor-style keys that give a soft but confident click without sounding like a typewriter. Switching between Bluetooth and the USB receiver is simple, so he uses it with both his laptop and his desktop without juggling a tangle of cables. The fact that it charges over USB-C means no digging for spare batteries in the middle of a work session.For anyone who spends long hours at a keyboard and is tired of sore wrists, cramped hands, or chasing a mouse around the desk, this thing earns its place. According to my nephew, once you get used to the trackball and the split layout, a normal keyboard just feels a little boring.
