  • Laptops with proper arrow keys

    PC component prices went to the moon and UK availability is shit, so I'm considering a laptop for my next machine.

    However, most laptops seem to have shitty arrow keys like this:


    I don't want to be playing ss like that, so I would need to shortlist some laptops that have proper arrow keys.

    So far I've found only one - Dell Alienware:


    I know some of you have been laptop plebs for a while, so maybe you're aware of others, if so plz share.

    i havent bought a laptop in a long time, but my lenovo yoga has arrows that work. i mean when i bought that laptop obama still had a couple years left in office, so no telling what the newer ones are like. my work laptop is a dell latitude and it also has keys that are in the correct layout, but theyre pretty short and squatty. not easily played on.

    i know this is an answer you didnt ask for, but if you really want to play SS using a laptop, just get a laptop and dock it. hook up a proper keyboard and monitor and roll with it. unless youre also trying to get away from using a desk or whatnot, its easily the best way to play using a laptop.

    others who have bought a laptop more recently probably have better suggestions

          The Lenovo have Kinda normal ones. I have the T480 at work. But its a work laptop and im guessing u are looking for a gameing laptop. Just buy a keyboard and plug it inte the usb.

            I own a Lenovo Legion. It has normal arrow keys and is a gaming laptop. They all have normal keys.

              I have an Alienware laptop I got in 2014 so probably too old to be relevant, but it's still kicking in 2022 so I'm at least happy with the quality and what I got for my money

              My brother has a Legion and he likes it a lot, not 100% positive on the arrow keys but at least I know somebody who likes it

              Beyond that the ROG Zephyrus G series generally gets great reviews (G14 and G15) but again not sure about the keyboards

              can just look those models up though

              good luck
