Pros

  • Trackball and dedicated click buttons are reachable without leaving the home row
  • Gasket mount and Poron foam in three layers give a well-damped typing feel
  • Bottom row supports 20 layout combinations, including optional rotary encoders
  • About 24 cm wide, small enough to carry easily

Cons

  • Sold as a kit; switches, keycaps, trackball and battery must be bought separately and assembled
  • Compact 40% ortholinear layout takes practice to adapt to
  • Some settings such as trackball DPI can't be changed in ZMK Studio and require recompiling firmware
