I own a freestyle RGB split keyboard and it's the best I've used since the OG Microsoft Natural kyboards for ergonomics.

They're also comparatively better priced than others of its kind.

The Microsoft Natural keyboards were an ergonomic nightmare. The cheap, sliding post keys would have varying resistance depending on how close to the center your finger landed, and how vertically you applied pressure.

Also, the keys were arranged over a hump. The dished design of a Kinesis has much better ergonomics.
