Keychron Nape Pro: The ‘TrackPoint’ Trackball We’ve Been Waiting For?

While Keychron revealed new mechanical keyboards with impressive battery life at CES, the true showstopper was undoubtedly the Nape Pro. This marks the brand’s debut into the trackball market, and it brings a design philosophy that could redefine desktop ergonomics.

What sets the Nape Pro apart is its slender, low-profile frame. Unlike traditional, bulky trackballs that sit to the side, the Nape Pro is designed to sit in front of your keyboard. This allows you to navigate the cursor and manipulate the device’s rotary dial without ever lifting your hands from the home row. It essentially functions as a giant, more comfortable Lenovo TrackPoint for desktop setups.

Specs include six fully programmable buttons, offering heavy customization for power users. If you’ve been hesitant to switch to a trackball, the Nape Pro’s blend of familiar functionality and innovative placement makes it look like the perfect gateway device.
