Features
The Kinesis Freestyle Pro Quiet is a split mechanical keyboard designed for optimal comfort, performance, and customization, featuring Cherry MX Quiet Red switches with a linear feel and sound-dampening for a quieter typing experience. With its adjustable 20-inch linking cable, this keyboard can be split up to 12 inches, or more with additional cable, providing flexibility for personalized setups to suit various body types and preferences.
Designed to reduce wrist strain, the Freestyle Pro offers a zero-degree slope from front to back, unlike most keyboards with a positive slope. This layout promotes a natural wrist position, helping to reduce wrist extension. For users seeking additional ergonomic support, optional tenting accessories (VIP3 Pro with palm supports or V3 Pro without) offer adjustable angles of 5, 10, and 15 degrees to reduce forearm pronation.
The Freestyle Pro is also highly customizable with the SmartSet Programming Engine, allowing users to switch easily between Windows, Mac, and Dvorak layouts or create custom layouts. The onboard programming and SmartSet App make it simple to set up shortcuts, macros, and preferences without any software installation. Optional padded palm supports are available for further wrist support, making the Freestyle Pro Quiet an ideal choice for users seeking a quiet, adaptable, and ergonomically optimized keyboard.
