Turtle Beach Command Series KB5 Review: A touchscreen and a numberpad in one keyboard?
It's got the built-in numberpad, unlike the Corsair Galleon 100 SD and the Turtle Beach KB7, as well as the touchscreen / macro pad, though its version is about half the size. It has a roomy layout and is slightly larger than the average full-size keyboard, measuring approximately 18.78 inches (477 mm) wide by 6.89 inches (175 mm) deep. It's 1.06 inches (27mm) thick at its thickest point, including the keycaps. (Image credit: Tom's Hardware)The KB5 has a silver brushed-aluminum top plate with a coppery accent in the upper-left corner.
