Upgrade Your WFH Setup: Our Expert Picks for the Best Computer Keyboards in 2024

Home office setup with a Kensington premium cool-gel seat cushion

A computer keyboard is the cornerstone of your digital productivity so it’s important to be using the right one. Kensington offers a wide range of devices for every typing style and need. Whether you prefer a low-profile, sleek device, a portable keyboard, or a full-sized tricked out model with all the comfort features, we’ve got you covered. Our experts have evaluated the lineup and are ready to present recommendations that will set you up to work comfortably and effectively.

The 5 best Kensington computer keyboards for home set-ups are:

If you think all a computer keyboard does is let you create words on a screen, it’s time to think again. 

The first computer keyboard had 84 keys. By comparison, most of today’s keyboards sport over 100 keys. For perspective, that means there are more than 50 keys doing something other than entering a letter, number, space, or punctuation mark into that carefully crafted work email.

For even more perspective, that’s 50+ possibilities for elevating your productivity. But, which keyboard is the best possible combination of functions and features for you?  That depends on your work style, your office space, and your connectivity preferences. If you’re one of the millions of people who work remotely, you might want to take a moment to consider the vast array of keyboards and possibilities out there.

Our experts know a thing or two about picking out the best keyboard. Let’s review.

How Do I Choose the Right Keyboard?

While the first typewriter keyboards were little more than a lever attached to a stamp, modern keyboards sport a whole range of functions designed to enhance productivity. Working from home presents opportunities and challenges – and your keyboard needs to effectively tackle both.  If you are in the market for a new keyboard, consider the following before you start shopping:

  1. How much space do you have? 
    Do you have a dedicated home office space, or will you set up wherever there’s free space? That will directly impact the size of the keyboard you need.
  1. How will you use your keyboard?
    Jobs that involve a lot of typing will benefit from a different type of keyboard than those primarily relying on the computer mouse or input device.
  1. Are you mobile?
    Whether or not your keyboard will sit in place all the time, or if it will come with you to the coffee shop should influence your decision.
