Its split design allows you to position each half according to your natural arm and hand placement, promoting a more comfortable and healthier typing posture.

Can I use only one half of the split keyboard independently?

What keycap materials and printing methods are used?

This keyboard uses durable PBT keycaps with laser-engraved legends on both the front and sides of the keycaps. This ensures long-lasting, fade-resistant markings that help users easily identify key functions even after extended use.

Does the keyboard support different typing layouts?

Yes, the Mistel Barocco supports multiple popular layouts such as QWERTY, Dvorak, and Colemak. This flexibility allows users to switch layouts according to their typing preferences or language requirements.

Is the keyboard suitable for gaming with respect to key rollover and polling rate?
