The backlighting looks superb, but all that spectacular illumination is reserved for the primary symbols on keys only. However, half sized function keys may take a little getting used to if you’re a heavy user. You’ll also find standalone audio keys, including mute, microphone and volume keys that simplify control of media. The keyboard layout is a delicate balance of give and take, in that it omits a numpad but adds full sized arrow keys that make skipping through menus a lot easier. Dell has incorporated N-Key Rollover and Anti-ghosting technologies for improved accuracy in the heat of battle. The keys, which feature large keycaps and a respectable 1.5mm travel, feel light to tap and respond quickly.
