Are More Thumbkeys always BETTER?
Are More Thumbkeys always BETTER? Well, in this video, we're going deep into ergonomic thumbkey designs. We're checking out popular keyboards like the Kinesis Advantage, ZSA Moonlander, Dygma Defy, Dygma Raise, and more. We're diving into how these keyboards have evolved their thumb key layouts, from basic to advanced setups, and talking about how each design caters to natural hand movements and customization needs.

Dygma Defy Reviews Around The World ✈️
Gracias Hermana!
For me, your company is a reference for professionalism and quality, congratulations and thank you for the content!
I can say that after many months with the Defy, the thumb cluster is a treat. I use very regularly 6 of the 8 keys, and the 2 most inner ones less often, and I wonder how I lived with only one key under my thumbs for most of my life! It felt challenging at first, but now it’s like a second nature. Can't wait to add more macros when they become available to use those thumb keys even more! 😀
All my keys I was able to replace fine on my dygma defy, except one - the thumb to the far right on the left-hand side. The Keycap "leg" snapped in the switch, and I can't remove it... =\
If you have broken that thumbkey, don't worry, send an email to contact@dygma.com and let's see what we can do 😉
@@DygmaLab Will do! ty very much :)
I did a lot of research on silent switches over a year ago. From what I gathered the best stock silent switches are Gazzew Bobagums, but the most silent switches IIRC are lubed Silent Alpacas V2. great video
We'll have to try them 🙌
Hello there, Hope you can help me!! I would like to get the Keychron K 10 UK iso with quiet switch with a slightly high activation force with tactility. Is this ppossioble? Would it work with thekeyswitch I'd like? Please I wo udl appreciate your help. Tahnks in advance.
Two, maximum three are best IMO.
Well that depends on your necessities, I think once you have more, you can't go back to less. That happened to me when I went from my Raise to my Defy, and now, when I use the Raise I miss my other thumbkeys 🥲
Yes, Ergodox EZ is missing a thumb key there, that's why I didn't like it. I did use two extra thumb keys - the keys below v and m, by turning the key caps upside down so it's comfortable to press with the thumbs. But they also have a nice feature where you can tap and hold a dual function key to get it to hold the primary function. Repeating keys like space, backspace, enter, etc. is often useful. I wish you would implement that too. I tried using Super keys, but it doesn't work as well, you have to manually adjust the options and I wasn't able to get the same behavior, at best I got a long delay when single pressing (or pressing multiple times quickly) the key before it registers, which is unacceptable.
What do you mean by repeating? Isn't it the same as just having a key pushed for some time until you get enough repeats of it?
@@hakier_ Yes, that’s it. Not possible with a dual-function key (which is a key that when pressed down is a modifier).
@abc33155 ok. Now I understand. That is true. I was lacking this functionality especially for backspace/ctrl when I want to remove a portion of a text
Hi Luis, I ordered the Raise 2 on the first hour on the launch day. Please consider the Magnetic Hall effect switches for Defy 2 and Raise 3. Currently, I am using a modified ZSA Voyager with 6 thumb keys on each side for productivity work and a Wooting for gaming.
That's an interesting idea! I'll tell the team! Thank you 😊
More thumbs are always better.
We want mooooore!
Thymb keys are great! I love how you designed them in a Defy. I think that in Raise I will miss some of them as there is half of them.
Thank you for your words! that happened to me! Now when I use my Raise I miss my Defy thumbkeys 😂
More thumb-keys can be texture sometimes it gets smooth or sort of worn-out But it still works and feels much better. But some are wireless Bluetooth and some are well chord wired like. I know we are used to changing batteries but we don’t have to do that since there is chargeable ones now.
late to the game, but just pre-ordered :)
Yaaaas 🎉
I just learned I'm a single shot kind if guy
😂😂😂😂
Here in Brazil it's the exact opposite, there are a TON of iso keycaps, and... You guessed it, I use ansi, and it is a PAIN to find Keycaps for my Keyboard, there is another problem for me in particular, I have an Redragon K624P (Elise Pro) and my left shift is the normal length, but my right shift is the smaller one, not the lengthy one, but that's my keyboard layout problem, so I need those 131 keycaps set so i can get both ISO and ANSI just for that shift on the same set style
Oops, can't you buy the keycaps you want online?
@@DygmaLab oh, what I meant with here in Brazil it's already online, there is zero keycaps in local stores, and because of politics and whatever, Brazil made imports pretty much impossible, sky high fees and etc, so, we are doomed with what already is in the country
My collection of clicky switches disagree that there is no rabbit hole for them.😂
😂😂😂
Hi great videos. Learnt a lot from your videos.
That's awesome! Thank you for your words!

@DygmaLab Miquel can you share your engram layout with the layers please?
He was inspired by this web sunaku.github.io/engram-keyboard-layout.html 😉
good review, but that 2 minutes 20seconds unnecessary intro tho...
Thanks! We love to talk, you saw it, right? 😂
Dygma Defy is the ergonomic keyboard I was always looking for, and fulfilled 90%+ of my needs and wants. Being split, and wireless opens up so many better postural positions to use this in. Recommend this product to anyone looking for something worth keeping for the next 10 years
That's great to hear! We'll keep up the hard work 😊
Hi here did you buy the Kailh Box Silent Pink please ?
On the official website of Kailh, www.kailh.net 😊
@@DygmaLab I didnt found them on their website , but thx !
You can also find them on our web dygma.com 😊
The Defy looks wonderful. Having RSI at this point so looking to go all the way to the glove80 for the concave well, but if I were going off of looks as well I would be seriously considering the Defy. The 80 definitely has extraneous keys, but you can easily program those extra rows out.
That's the beauty of having different options to choose from, everybody can find the one that suits them best 😊
I would LOVE for Dygma to release the Defy 2 with the Function Keys! My Defy is sitting in the travel case that it came in (I have only used it for an hour since receiving it in January...) and will probably remain there due to the lack of the Function keys. YES, YES, YES, there are layers, but honestly, there's nothing more functional than pressing a key vs. remembering what layer a key (or keys) are on 😊
There are workarounds to that. Have you thought about using superkeys to make the number row a Function row when you hold each key?
@@DygmaLab Bazecor is too confusing for me to use intuitively and understand the functionality. I have watched the videos leading up to the release of the Defy so I wasn't totally new to it, but yet and still, not very intuitve to me. I have thought about trying to give the Defy a go again (I did manage to change my layout to something that I think would be easy for me...), but after discovering the Glove80 and the Matias Ergo Pro.... I may decide to invest in a different keyboard altogether 😥 I'm still on the fence though so the Defy will continue to sit in it's case looking nice, pretty, and untouched 😥
If you have any questions about Bazecor you can write us an email at contact@dygma.com and we'll be more than happy to make a call with you to help you 😊
@@DygmaLab I will take you up on that offer ASAP!! 😁 😁 🤪. Thank you!
I like the approach you guys take with the thumb cluster, of basically more = better and try to make as many of them reachable as possible. Feels like ZSA realized the thumb layout sucked on the ergodox/moonlander, but rather than improve it they just got rid of most of the keys lol. A low profile portable Dygma board something like a Voyager but with more thumb keys and wireless option could be sweet :)
We are exploring low profile versions of our keyboards, but it might take a bit of time 😅
@@DygmaLab great to hear, love that you guys are so genuinely interested in this stuff. And sorry us keyboard nerds all have such strong and often opposing opinions 😅
I thought this conversation was cool.😎 It took me a long time to find a keyboard for myself and I think I had all the keyboards that were on the table as options. But in the end I decided on a completely different keyboard. I use the ADM42, which is a very small, compact keyboard. It has 42 keys and is columnar and it is also slightly curved. It has the shape of a Batman logo.😂
Thank you! More to come 😊
Great review, helps to see how much work has been put into your software and build. Please do you have any more info on how you are using the pogo pins in the new keyboard comming out soon? I'd love to see how extra buttons, or track ball might look ?
We are exploring different options, including extra keys and a trackball module 😊
What are those chairs? I want one.
We got them from amazon 😅 www.amazon.es/SONGMICS-Reposabrazos-Escritorio-Giratorio-Ajustable/dp/B089VMXF3H
interesting content... on the edge of pre-ordering your new keyboard, but I'd love to hear/see what your ideas are for using the popo-pins ?
We are exploring different options, including extra keys and a trackball module 😊
I appreciate the directness. Having to replug in cables, reflash firmware, restore lost configs, and repair 4 pcs through Bluetooth has gotten old. But the hardware is so nice, it’s hard to find a good, wireless, ortholinear keyboard. Here’s to getting the bugs figured out quickly.
Thank you! We're working hard on it 😊
super helpful. thanks for this comparison!
Our pleasure 😊
The Glove80 is the best keyboard I've encountered for several reasons, but two stand out the most: 1-The thumb cluster feels incredibly natural. 2-Once you use a concave keyboard, there's no going back. In my opinion, the only aspect where the Glove80 falls short is its tenting system.
We have ordered one to try it out. We are confident our thunbcluster design is superior, and hesitant about the added height (as explained in the video) but we are quite curious 😅
@@DygmaLab I have the Moonlander, Kinesis Advantage 360, and I bought the Defy during the Kickstarter campaign because I find it beautiful, and it is, but I couldn't really get used to the thumb cluster. Also, with the lateral legs, the profile of the keyboard becomes very high ( Something that is compensated in the Advantage360 with the concave shape in my opinion, and the Glove80, well, it doesn't have that problem and, in addition, it is concave. ), and I really hate the material of the Keycaps (I know I could buy others, but I decided to keep the Glove80, so it doesn't make sense.). I still have the Defy because I think it is the most visually beautiful keyboard, and I have it on a stand. I decided to buy the Glove80, and I basically loved it from the first time I used it. I'm sure you will love it after trying it.
@@DygmaLab Looking forward to your review of it!
Toggle macro? I click the key, it does the macro, on repeat, forever, until I press it again... Currently if you put a macro inside another macro that call each other, the keyboard just crashes after a few loops.
Sorry that's still not possible with the current firmware 🥹
I still can't get used to not having a numpad or arrow button... But in all honesty, the typing experience I had on the v1 Raise for 4 years (wait, really....) has been great. I think it helped me type, and overall it feels better typing reports on this, rather than the standard. Still trying to think if I want to change my raise to a defy...
To be fair, the number pad layer on a staggered keyboard is not as easy to master as in a columnar.
Before I watched: BECAUSE THEY ARE FLIPPIN EXPENSIVE
It depends on how you frame it. How much are you willing to spend on a chair or a desk. The keyboard is something you use over 8 hours a day, maybe it's worth the investment :-)
I went through a few splits but hit my endgame this montn! Mistel MD770 > Dygma Raise > Filco Xacro M10SP The filco just works so well for me with the 10 macro keys down the middle, i had no break in time it just worked! I love the dygma and what you guys do but the filco just fit better
Interesting! Haden't seen that one! We are working on a modurle for the Raise 2 that adds extra keys on one side similar to that keyboard, but removable 😊
@@DygmaLab ohhh interesting!! I love filco as a brand they were my first mechanical keyboard so when I saw the split I had to give it a go and the middle row was nice! I will for sure keep an eye on what modules you release though that's very interesting :)
This discussion reminds me of a presentation that author Malcolm Gladwell did a long time ago (linked below). It was about a company researching the recipe for the perfect one-size-fits-all spaghetti sauce. They might have found some basic principles, but they finally concluded that you can’t satisfy everyone with one sauce, because tastes differ too much. Some people liked smoother sauces while others like chunks, some people liked a spicier sauce, etc. etc. Therefore it’s better to make multiple different sauces. ua-cam.com/video/VkhFh5Ms1vc/v-deo.html The same is true for keyboards. Some people want hot-swappable while others want a concave keywell, some people want more keys while others want maximum portability, some people want to stay with row staggered while other are prepared to learn column staggered, some people are willing and able to invest more money than others, some people want LEDs everywhere while others couldn’t care less, etc. etc.
Thanks for sharing! I guess we'll have to make more sauces too 😂
I sometimes want to have more than one ‘sauce’ in the same day!
I split gatorade and my computer won’t stop pressing 1. I saw this video after I used a towel to clean it. Second time this month. How the fluff will I explain this one.
🥹🥹 hope you were able to save it!
@@DygmaLab I actually was! I removed the switch entirely and it worked somehow? There's now electrical tape covering where it used to be. I will use this video for next time though. If there is a next time.
One time I had only one half of my Defy available, so it typed with one hand on the defy and the other on the laptop keyboard and had no issues xD am I a Freak?
At least one of your hands was comfortable 😂
Yes, I like these keyboard podcasts. Instead of Dvorak, etc. as alternative for QWERTY I would first want extra innerkeys (index finger keys between the T and Y staggered columns). The XBows and Defy have that. All keys left of the Q staggered column and right of the P staggered column could move to the index finger keys and thumb keys, for more speed. In the standard layout the left pinky is responsible for 2 staggered columns and the right pinky 3 columns. While the index finger handles only two staggered columns. A 4-split space bar must be possible, so we can put 10 keys in the middle for thumbs and index fingers. The A-key could have a 1.25 u keycap and the Z-key a 2 u keycap. The P-key maybe a 2 u keycap, etc. I would like the ? and / as well as the : and ; on separate single keys (no modifier) and also the + and = could be hotkey singles located between the 5-key and 6-key.
Interesting approah. Miquel is going the opposite direction with less work for the index thanks to Engram 😅
There are four categories of approaches for better ergonomics higher productivity as mentioned during the podcast: 1. hardware (better keycaps, switches, optimized for hand size) 2. remapped layout (dvorak, engram, etc. means must be programmable and also depends on willingness user to spend time to adapt) 3. improved hardware layout (split, extra hot macro keys, tenting). 4. more keys or less keys (without f row, without number row, etc. depends how much user is willing to adapt and memorize) I think for people who don't want to spend much time relearning a layout are better of with move of the QWERTY side / pinky keys to the middle for the index fingers and thumbs. Also because they will be more visible for peeking while the user is relearning. That's why the Dygma Raise is not hard at all to adapt to.
I love that you start off with there not being one “best ergonomic keyboard” Any review that suggests one solution for ergonomics has totally missed the point At 36:53 you start on “Height” and Tenting I think that is perhaps the biggest ergonomic feature that will impact most users Wish that was more towards the front. All the effort people put into alternate layouts and fewer keys may help some, but like you say those can take months to learn and with diminishing measurable returns health-wise But most keyboards don’t split, and very few tent to the recommended 20° or 30° studies show has the most impact over the long term If someone needs some improvements Looking around for options that support tenting like that will narrow a user’s choices a lot I’m glad to see more split boards including mounting brackets so people can add tripods to make keyboards tent to any angle 📐 That’s a solid desktop solution, if not always the most portable
Thanks! We might have to do a separate video about tenting 😊
Currently in the market for a split columnar keyboard, as my RSI is acting up again since I started my new job. I wish there was some way I could try out all of these models long-term without having to buy all of them haha. TBH I find the Defy a little on the ugly side (looks a bit like Hulk Hands), but I can't deny it's form factor and functionality. I'm willing to look past the aesthetics if the comfort and ease-of-use are there, but hard to say before I buy it. I'm also eyeing the Voyager because I like low-profile keyboards and I dig it's aesthetics and modularity, however I'm not sure if I'd be able to adapt to it having so few keys. I used the Moonlander at a previous job and I did like it, but I found it's built in tenting mechanism to be a bit on the cumbersome and clunky side. However they do have that new tenting mechanism add-on, which seems a bit more streamlined.
I got the glove80 recently for RSI issues. Would highly recommend
@@Lazlo-os1pu how natural it feels to use the glove80 has no comparison
The Defy's tenting mechanism is quite easy to use as you can see 😅 And we have a 30 day no-questions-asked return policy 😊
"And they turned out to be plastic" ..... The title of the Aliexpress page you showed clearly states it's a PBT keycap. Also, don't claim to review wood keycaps if you're not reviewing wood keycaps. Your Thumbnail says wood and your description says wood. So before you even get 12 minutes into the video, you've already lied twice, and then when a viewer gets there, you've wasted their time if they were specifically looking for a review on wood. Not the greatest decision. At a minimum, you should change your thumbnail and description. It's not that hard and changes nothing in the content, and it makes you no longer misleading. It's a shame really because otherwise the video is pretty decent.
We apologize if you felt that we misled you. At the time of purchase, we believed the product was made of wood (AliExpress updated the keycaps' title later). However, we still want to demonstrate how these keycaps with wood coating sound 😊
to be fair i got Logicool aka Logitech (which it is Logi for short now) ergonomic keyboard since microsoft made that natural ergonomic keyboard in the 90s before the apple adjustable ones. it's kinda possible that apple is stuck with magic standard layout keyboard with scissor mechanism instead of the butterfree/butterfly ones but apple is still thinking again to make ergonomic ones with latest ones though but logi beat them to it though so all i got is magic mouse and magic pad for mac os.
You’ll know the ergonomic keyboard revival has arrived when Apple swoops in and steals everybody’s ideas to release an updated Adjustable Keyboard But their current keyboards are so un-ergonomic in several ways it’ll be a big stretch to fit one into their aesthetic More likely they’ll continue to funnel people towards touch screens and VR headsets with no keyboards 😎 I bet there’s a prototype split / tented programmable RGB Magic Keyboard in there lab somewhere though. That would be fun to see

That's a fair starting point for an ergonomic journey 😊

Unfortunately we can't just add it. The switches and the PCB design is completely different 🥹
Double shot all day.
What is new with the firmware? I can't update my Dygma Raise. It said successful but didn't run after that. No keyboard could be found in Bazecor and also resetting the Neuron was a pain. Not sure if I should try it again.
It depends on what version of the firmware you're coming from. Please make sure to flash the keyboard with the latest bazecor. You can find all the releases here dygma.com/roadmap
@@DygmaLab Installed firmware version: v0.3.7, it says Update to the version: v1.0.11-beta. How should I proceed?
Unfortunately, the "Sleep" button does not do anything in my case. I mapped it onto the ESC button in my third layer, but it does not set my Mac to sleep. Any ideas? Would love to instantly bring my Mac to sleep when needed.
The Sleep button is a bit tricky on Mac. Try holding it for a couple of seconds and then release it, instead of tapping it.
@@DygmaLab Holding it a bit worked! Thanks!
I dont get anything hes saying
We added captions, if that helps...
