high contract keys and a fold out mobile device stand, typing on the ‘roll’ keyboard is comfortable because its 17 mm key pitch is nearly as good as the 18 mm key pitch encountered on most desktop keyboards. made of impact resistant and sturdy polycarbonate and ABS plastic, typing on the keyboard offers tactile feedback not found on flexible silicone keyboards. two arms fold out to support smartphones as well as tablets in an vertical position.
