HP 680 Dual-Mode Keyboard

Usage Review: HP 680 Dual-Mode Keyboard

Comfort & Ergonomics

The HP 680 is designed for long hours of typing, and users immediately notice the difference. Its wave‑like shape, cushioned palm rest, and adjustable angles (flat, incline, and negative tilt) make it easy to find a comfortable position. Customers mention that while the wrist cushioning could be slightly softer, it still provides solid support and helps reduce strain over time.

Typing Experience

Quiet keycaps make typing less distracting, which reviewers appreciate for focus during work. The full‑size layout takes a little getting used to, but once adjusted, it feels natural and ergonomic. The negative tilt option is especially praised for improving wrist posture compared to traditional flat keyboards.

Connectivity & Multi‑Device Switching

One of the standout features is its dual‑mode connectivity. Users highlight how seamlessly it switches between devices — up to three machines — without needing to re‑pair each time. Whether connected via Bluetooth or the HP Unifying Dongle, the keyboard maintains a stable connection. Customers find this feature particularly useful for multitasking across laptops, desktops, and tablets.

Build & Design

The keyboard is spill‑resistant and made with 55% post‑consumer recycled materials, which adds to its durability and eco‑friendly appeal. Some reviewers note minor misses, such as the lack of LED indicators for caps lock and num lock, but overall they consider the build solid and reliable.

Value & Market Position

At its price point, customers in India call it “exceptional” and “one of a kind.” It balances affordability with ergonomic design, making it a strong alternative to more expensive ergonomic keyboards. While a few users feel the value could be improved with better indicator placement or enhanced cushioning, most agree it’s worth the investment for long‑term wrist health and productivity.

 

✅ Summary: The HP 680 Comfort Dual‑Mode Keyboard delivers on its promise of ergonomic comfort, multi‑device connectivity, and eco‑friendly design. Customers find it stable, versatile, and well‑suited for long workdays, with only minor trade‑offs in indicator visibility and palm rest cushioning.
