How big are the keys? The keys on my current keyboard (regular letter keys) are 1/2 an inch across measuring from left to right on the top surface of the key. Does this at least have 1/2 an inch keys?

I'd say it's a touch larger than that, perhaps 9/16" or 5/8". Don't have a ruler or anything handy to be precise, but yes, it's at least that.

"Larger keys" depends on a point of reference. The keys themselves are larger than on my work laptop, for example, but are the same size as the desktop keyboard I replaced. The letters, numbers, and symbols on the keys are definitely larger.

The keyboard is full size if that's what you mean, just slim profile and no extra border keeping it small. The keys are "island" type like a laptop and seem pretty sturdy. Only time will tell if they hold up but seem promising.

18 1/2 X 7 1/2. We like this keyboard a lot. The only thing is sometimes you press a key and nothing happens, but it doesn't happen very often. Hope this helps!

My measurement of the keyboard is:9-7/16" width x 5-2/16" depth x 0-4/16 height9.4375" width x 5.125" depth x 0.25 height

They are normal size, but the keys are raised about 1/4 inch up from the platform, and that's from the platform to the bottom of the key. It may require a little getting used to, but it is a decent keyboard.

It does not have a numeric keypad on the right side so it is a smaller version of a "full-size" keyboard if that's what you mean. But it does have up/down & left/right arrow keys. I think keyboard is about a foot wide.

Possibly a bit narrower. I can't say for sure but a friend with a piano thought the keys on my keyboard were more narrow.

the top of the keys are 5/8" square BUT they are seriously yellow and the CAPITAL letter takes up the WHOLE space.Key board is great even in low light. Will L mentions the overall quality of the keyboard - it is very light weight, but we had the first board for 3 years and passed it on to a sight impaired friend and after a year he says it's still as good as ever, even though he did lose one of the feet.

We didn't keep the one we ordered, because it was defective. But, I remember it as being a little larger than the normal everyday keyboard. I think it was probably 10" deep, not long.

This is a regular key board. Keys remind me of a larger key board used on a dest top Hopes this helps

Surprisingly, the FACES of the keys are LARGER than a standard keyboard's (except for the Backspace, Shift, Enter, and Space keys, which are somewhat shorter in length). Another surprise is that the keys are the SAME distance apart, vertically AND horizontally, as on a standard keyboard. The biggest difference is that the keys are only 2mm high as opposed to 4mm high, and the keys depress only 1/2 as far as on the standard keyboard. This takes getting used to, but fast touch typing is certainly possible once you're accustomed to the feel. The mini size of this keyboard is due to the very narrow borders around it (no waste of space) and the deletion of the number pad and the removal of the Delete, Home, End, Page Up/Down, and Arrow keys, all of which are found on the top and bottom right side, with some combined into dual functions. I love this keyboard, and I have XXL+ hands. It is a bit fragile however, as I found out recently when handling it roughly (sat my netbook on TOP of it in the bag and pulled it out too quickly) ... one of the keycaps popped off (F2), and I spent two hours trying to put it back on, to no avail. It has 2 parts (miniscule parts!) inside the cap, and I couldn't get it to snap back on. Anker wants me to photo the parts for them to see if they can help get it back on. If they can't tell me how to fix it, they'll send me a new keyboard free. I won't take advantage of them since the key still works ... it just doesn't look all that great without a cap, but who's looking? But you gotta admit, that's mighty fine of them to offer, so I'd rate their service as superior, for sure.

I have one. The keys are full size but there are only 61 keys (36 white and 25 black). But you don't really use the ones that aren't there anyway. (the ones on the far left hand side). The center C key is not in the "center'...it is more to the left. Hope this helps.

Hi, the keyboard is 15" wide x6.5" deep. I am still quite satisfied with one I bought. Much better quality.

Definitely narrower then full-size keys. I think they make a new version with full-size keys now.

This is NOT a standard size key layout despite the size of the overall keyboard itself. It will take you time to get used to if you need to maintain your typing speed. If you want a full sized keyboard with a full "normal" key layout then you need to look elsewhere. I would suggest going to a local computer hardware shop and putting your hands on a few keyboards before making your descision.

I don't know that they keys are closer together nor that they are smaller. The keyboard is missing the numbers which usually reside on the far left side. That is what makes it smaller. I think it is designed for small spaces, not smaller hands.
