ELECOM Japanese Layout USB 2.4GHz Wireless Keyboard & Mouse Combo for Computer and Laptop, 109 Keys, Full-Size with Numeric Keypad, Quiet, Foldable Stand Windows Mac (TK-FDM106MBK)

This keyboard is exactly what I wanted and works perfectly after setup. Might not be a good choice for everyone. I use this keyboard with a Windows 11 PC. You have to download the appropriate language pack and go into the settings to change the keyboard layout, so it’s not as easy as just plug in and go. But that’s a limitation of the computer I’m using with it, not the keyboard. After the initial setup though. It’s a quality keyboard that performs as expected. Has a button to toggle English/Japanese, as well as hiragana/katakana. The layout is a little funky from a standard keyboard due to having need for more keys so keep that in mind. But once it’s set up it works perfectly. One note though that を shares a key with わ so you need to shift + わ to get を, that’s the only hiragana character like that so it took me an embarrassing amount of time to figure that out. I am using this to help learn Japanese and think in hiragana when typing sentences. The common consensus I’ve seen is romaji input is more popular for modern typing of Japanese on a keyboard, however as a non-native Japanese learner I think it’s important to break away from romaji until you have perfect grasp of hiragana/katakana.

I purchased this keyboard to make typing in Japanese easier, and it definitely does the job. The only caveat is that you have to download the driver for your computer to recognize the 110 key Japanese keyboard as opposed to the 106 key English.

I have had this keyboard for a few months, and it is among the best I have ever used. All of the characters, both English and Japanese, are super clear. The keys almost sound mechanical, but a bit softer and is a very nice sound. Love typing on this keyboard, there aren't any issues. That said, it is a bit large to take it in a bag somewhere, but its a full keyboard, just buy a smaller keyboard for that and you'll be fine. Over all, absolutely buy this keyboard, was worth the money. I got the mouse with it, and the mouse is definitely on the smaller side. After a few weeks it became legitimately more comfortable than the larger mouse that I used to use.

Comfort/Ergonomic: The secondary characters are smaller than the primary characters on the keycaps, so they can be difficult to read. Would be much improved if the secondary characters were 20% larger. I only need to type Japanese characters about 10% of the time, so I need a keyboard that operates as US English QWERTY by default but can temporarily switch to Japanese. After much experimenting I determined that the instructions provided are outdated and useless for Windows 11. Here's how I got the keys to map correctly for English and Japanese: 1. In settings --> Time & language --> Language and Region, make sure that both English (United States) and Japanese language packs are installed. 2. In Language Options for English (United States) click "Add a keyboard" and add *Japanese QWERTY". 3. in Language Options for Japanese, make sure you're using Microsoft IME as the keyboard. Then make sure that the keyboard layout selected is "Japanese keyboard (106/109 key)". Operation: 1, If English United States language input is selected in the task bar, "ENG" will display there, and the Japanese characters will not be accessible. This mode is handy when you want to avoid accidentally changing to Japanese characters. 2. If Japanese language input is selected in the task bar, A circled "J" will appear in the task bar, along with an indicator for the character set that's currently active: either a capital "A" or a hiragana "ぁ". When using the Japanese language input mode, you can toggle between the keyboard's English and Japanese character sets by clicking on the taskbar indicator, or by tapping the keys on either side of the spacebar. Romaji to Hiragana conversion issues. Supposedly, with a different driver and configuration, and perhaps with earlier versions of Windows, this keyboard was capable of converting romaji to hiragana on the fly (type "sumimasen" and it changes to "すみません"). I've been unable to get it to do that while also correctly mapping the keys.

I already purchased a Deft Trackball, because all the USA domestics I used for twenty years were discontinued. It works as well if not better so I looked into Elecom's keyboards. I decided to go with an inexpensive one 20$. Just like the other products, they provide a USB Mini Receiver with excellent range. It comes with an additional wireless mouse I plan on using, but was unaware was included. The receiver was plug in play, the keyboard has a subtle interesting design. Large AT style keys that feel mechanical; It's very basic but that's exactly what I was looking for as it reduces the weight an footprint. I think the Japanese characters look cool. The ()@*][ are mislabeled but in the right place for US layout. I wouldn't have noticed except I'm looking it over writing this....there is mystery button next to backspace. Excellent product. I may look into a higher end version after being assured they can produce a good economical one.

You have to set up to an app on your phone.

The only complaint I have is that backspace is pretty small. Other than that it’s fantastic. Everything seems to be working as expected. All I had to do was insert the batteries and plug in the adapter and it was already pre-synced and ready to go. This has nothing to do with the product itself but with the shipping. I got the product on time and when I opened the package the box inside was already torn open on one end and the keyboard came sliding out.

The keyboard is perfectly fine and I like it. The problem is the scroll wheel, which became completely useless about 3 months after purchase, scrolling in the opposite direction and being unresponsive. I will never buy another Elecom mouse again.

Actually it is an ELECOM-Japan keybord, but arrived without mouse. There is no space for mouse in the original carton. Either item description or the item itself is wrong.

Llevo a tiempo, el empaquetado no presentó daños, el teclado estaba en perfectas condiciones, lo instalé y después de hacer los ajustes necesario, lo pude utilizar de inmediato. Todas las teclas función, no hay ningún suelta o defectuosa. Muy contento con la compra

Too many mis-keys (i.e. typed characters often don't register).

同型のBluetoothを持っているけど 思ったよりPC以外で使わないし なんならBIOSの方が大事だしで購入 カチャカチャうるさく10キーがある方が自分好み。 購入1ヵ月、混線断線みたいのは今のところ無い。

職場と自宅で同じモデルを使いたいけどHHKBのようなハイクラスの製品を複数買うのはちょっと…と思いながらこの製品を複数購入し長らく愛用しています。 フルキーボードで薄型でない製品の中で入手のしやすさと価格の安さで気に入っています。 故障したり出張先で使いたくなったりで急に必要になった時も、家電量販店やドン・キホーテなどで購入できることが多く、いつもと同じ操作性のキーボードを調達しやすいのが一押しポイントです。 操作性も安価なキーボードとしては○です。 指紋が目立ちにくいマットな質感とフルキーボードにしては軽めな重量がお気に入り。 マウスに関しては、よくある数千円のマウスの代わりにするにはチープな操作性だと感じます。私は別の製品を使用しています。マウス無しモデルも販売されたら嬉しいですね。価格的にはマウス付きでも十分安いので気にはならないですが。
