The percentage in a mechanical keyboard refers to the size of the keyboard relative to a full-size keyboard. Here is a breakdown of the different sizes:

60% keyboard: A 60% keyboard is the smallest size, and it only includes the alphanumeric keys. It does not have a number pad, function keys, or media controls. These keyboards are very compact and portable, making them a good choice for people who have limited desk space or who need a keyboard for on-the-go use.
75% keyboard: A 75% keyboard is similar to a 70% keyboard, but it includes a full set of function keys. These keyboards are a little larger than 70% keyboards, but still compact compared to a full-size keyboard.
80% keyboard: An 80% keyboard is similar to a 75% keyboard, but it includes a full set of function keys and a small number pad. These keyboards are slightly larger than 75% keyboards, but still compact compared to a full-size keyboard.
100% keyboard: A 100% keyboard, also known as a full-size keyboard, includes a full set of alphanumeric keys, a number pad, function keys, and media controls. These keyboards are the largest size and are best for people who need a lot of keys or use the number pad frequently.To choose the right size of mechanical keyboard for your needs, consider the following factors:
-
Amount of desk space: If you have limited desk space, a smaller keyboard may be a better fit.
-
Frequency of use: If you use the number pad or function keys frequently, a larger keyboard may be more convenient.
-
Portability: If you need a keyboard for on-the-go use, a smaller, portable keyboard may be a better choice.
-
Personal preference: Ultimately, the size of the keyboard that is best for you will depend on your personal preference and how you use the keyboard.
I hope this guide helps you choose the right size of mechanical keyboard for your needs. Let Goblintechkeys know if you have any other questions!

Looking for comparison in inches, of keyboard – overall size, dimensions WxH of only the main keypad. Ideally, a side-by-side comparison of 75%, 80%, 100% (not including number pad).
