This features hotkeys for the calculator CE and +/- functions along with increased spacing to match the full-size key pitch for more intuitive number entry.Optimal click ratio: Engineered to perfectionThe feel of a keyboard depends on the crucial ratio between the peak force (also known as the actuation force) and the contact force. Peak force occurs when you press down on the key and reach the maximum force that the keys underlying rubber dome can withstand without deflecting. Contact force occurs when the bottom of the key touches the circuit board to trigger an electronic signal which in turn generates the action appropriate to the key. To achieve the most natural feel for a keyboard ASUS keyboard experts have scientifically determined that the optimal ergonomic click ratio for a key is between 45-60%. These forces are precisely measured and tuned using the ASUS-designed rubber domes beneath the keys.ASUS Antimicrobial Guard PlusInhibit 99% of COVID-19 flu virus & bacteria*ASUS Antimicrobial Guard Plus is applied to frequently touched areas of your laptop to help keep it hygienic. This technology uses a denser treatment* that inhibits viruses and bacteria. And it is scientifically shown using the ISO 2170210 and 2219611 standards to inhibit virus and bacteria growth by more than 99% over a 24-hour period4. Strains used for the tests include the SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) H3N2 (Influenza A) and the E. coli bacterium12.* ISO 21702 tests for COVID-19 H3N2 H1N1 and ISO 22196 tests for Staphylococcus and E. coli.* Treatments13 are approved by US FIFRA14 & EU BPR15.ASUS Antimicrobial Guard PlusViruses and bacteria inhibitionViruses and bacteria are everywhere in our daily life. Antimicrobial Guard Plus inhibits all viruses and bacteria with an envelope (the outermost layer of many types of viruses and bacteria) from the surface of the protected parts. ISO 21702 testing shows that it can inhibit the growth of SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) H1N1 H3N2 (Influenza A) and harmful bacteria.SARS-CoV-2 virus (COVID-19)Since 2020 COVID-19 has ravaged the globe. More than 580M people17 worldwide have been infected.Influenza A (H3N2)The influenza A and B viruses that routinely spread in people are responsible for seasonal flu epidemics each year18.E. coliEscherichia coli (abbreviated as E. coli) are bacteria found in the environment foods. Although most strains of E. coli are harmless others can make you sick19.ASUS Antimicrobial Guard PlusSilver ions prevents 99% reproductionASUS Antimicrobial Guard Plus is a surface coating20 on the laptop21 that contains positively-charged silver ions. Silver ions and negatively-charged microbial cells are attracted to each other and then pierce the surface to damage their structure inhibiting reproduction.Without ASUS Antimicrobial Guard Plus an estimated sample of 10000 (pfu/ml) cells grew to 28000 (pfu/ml). Performing the same test with Antimicrobial Guard Plus saw the count reduced to just 16 (pfu/ml) a growth restriction of more than 99%.User ExperienceUser friendly designUnlock in one touchAccessing your device has never been easier or more secure!
