π§ What Makes the RK L98 Unique?
The ROYAL KLUDGE L98 features a left-handed (southpaw) layout, placing the numpad on the left side of the keyboard. While itβs clearly designed with left-handed users in mind, it also caters to right-handed users who prefer to use the mouse with their right hand and the numpad with their left β a game-changer for tasks like data entry and spreadsheet work.
