Apple Wired Keyboard with Numeric Keypad vs KB Paradise v60

The low profile is comfortable and the traveling distance is short. The keys are light to press, leading to less typing fatigue.

Thanks to its thin aluminum enclosure, this keyboard is sturdy.

Nothing really comes close to the Apple device's aesthetic flair.

Handy for device connection

Since this keyboard is mainstream, many big companies have it. So, if working at a big company, it is likely it is quickly available and for "free".

The low-profile, short-travel construction makes this keyboard more ergonomic than previous Apple keyboards and allows for fast typing because keys have only a small distance to go before registering.

This keyboard is very light and can be easily carried around.

The keyboard backlighting color can be set to either green and blue or red and blue. This option can be switched on the fly.

The 60% form factor means your hands almost never have to depart from home row for any reason, increasing efficiency.

With this keyboard, there's a wide variety of switches to choose from. From practically all Cherry switches to cheaper, non-backlit Gateron or Matias switches.

This keyboard is built to last.

The keycaps are typeset in Futura, arguably a more attractive option than what many similar keyboards (such as the KBC Pokers) feature.

The v60 has six DIP switches on the back that allow for a variety of layout customization options, and the keyboard comes with extra keycaps to reflect those options, so that the inscriptions always match the key functions. Some examples include replacing Caps Lock with Ctrl (a popular trick for programmers, as some Unix software was written with such a layout in mind) or swapping left Super and left Alt to accommodate users used to Apple keyboards.
