There are a lot of keyboards out there, and while most are pretty generic and very similar, there’s actually a lot more verity out there than people may realise. There are quite a few form factors for keyboards too, and the trend for smaller ones is unironically bigger than ever. The question is, what’s the right size for you, does the size really matter, and surely it’s how you use it that matters? Sure, you can slip some innuendo in there, but let’s be mature about this… from now on.

HyperX gets into the growing 60% keyboard game with the Alloy Origins 60. Based on the same design language as the popular Alloy Origins and Alloy Origins Core, it cuts things down physically while retaining the feature set the company uses to attract gamers, typists, and fans of the brand alike.

Solidly built and stylishly finished, the ultra-compact keyboard is satisfying to use and does almost everything expected of the form factor. It is extremely petite, yet no less robust, the linear red key switch is familiarly consistent, and a combination of sensible secondary functions and a beautiful spacebar help elevate the overall experience. We'd prefer the red keyswitch housings to be a little more discrete, and the HyperX software reflects its beta tag, but these niggles don't detract from a high-quality board that is easily recommended to gamers wanting to downsize.
