Reply to comment by greenguitar92 in My Q12. South paw is very odd by phero1190

Odd in a good way. My main board is an Odin so I like numpads, getting used to lef thanks number input is just gonna take some time.

Good to hear! I daily a 65%(Q2) but I love the look of the left hand num pad. It just makes sense to be able to type numbers and have the mouse in the other hand. I have actually been looking into the Wind X R2 south paw GB and im probably going to jump on it before the window ends.

I'm also thinking of buying the Wind X R2 southpaw! Still not sure if I want Enter on left or right side of num pad 😅. What will you choose and why?

I picked left side enter so it's an exact mirror of a right hand num pad. I feel like that should be more a easily transferable skill between your hands unless you are already used to a separate numpad on the left.

Thanks for the reply. I was thinking the same. I probably will pull the trigger shortly. Can't wait to receive the keyboard.

Having bought the Q12 myself and making it my main board I have the enter key in the right since that’s the only option. I can say it took about 30 seconds to get used to. Everyone seems to think it’s going to be a long process (myself included). It wasn’t

Not to jump in but I'm looking into the board and I think I'd go enter on the right still. Purely because of where your hand sits, it leaves your fingers to type in numbers and your thumb with easy access to both enter and plus kn the right. Total preference though, aesthetically the mirrored one does look better for some reason imho.
