Layout, size & compatibility

5 items
Keyboard size
1800 compact layout with number pad and function row

HyperX calls it a compact 1800-style layout with the functions of a full-size keyboard; the number pad and function row are read from the official image.

Regional layout
English US (QWERTY)

Read from the official US store image for this SKU, which shows English QWERTY legends in the ANSI arrangement (horizontal Enter, wide left Shift). The page's Layout selector shows 'Key Travel Distance: 1.8 mm' instead of a layout name, so no layout wording is published. The UK store sells a separate SKU, B4QS4AA#ABU.
