have you checked the other side to see if that's the same. it may be the keyboard is shaped that way on purpose?
The holes and electronics and caps are all populated and placed by a machine. There's too many steps for it to be a fault.

I get that some (most?) of these are based on typewriter layouts which predate computers, and those were based on letter frequency in a given language, but why the frick do they always have to move the non-alphanumeric characters as well?
they didn't "move the characters" because they weren't looking at a modern qwerty US keyboard when making the layouts, anon. they were coming up with their own stuff simultaneously.
>They didn't just come up with a layout for a pre-existing device, they independently came up with the concept of PC-compatible keyboard itself. It just happens to have roughly the same number of keys and identical looking blocks (numpad, arrows, F1-12) by pure coincidence.
Is that what you're trying to say?
Some countries (mostly Western Slavic ones AFAIR) just took the US qwerty as-is and decided the accented letters would be entered through a modifier (usually alt-gr), instead of putting, say, "ą" on "2" which would require moving "@" to fricking "9", which would then require putting "(" and ")" in some other place etc.
it's not, actually
number row is different. french layout is usually inverted and you need to hold shift to type numbers, OP's layout doesn't >t. french
>french layout is usually inverted and you need to hold shift to type numbers
That's pretty crazy. But I guess if you're used to it then maybe it's fine.
Perhaps OP's keyboard is French Canadian then.

I could be wrong but I think leaves just use qwerty
Azerty is trash that cannot even write common French special letters like œuf never mind other European languages. It makes no fricking sense. At least switch to this or just use qwerty or qwertz with the french characters added.
How can I swap it for a unit with better alignment?
return it and get a better one. are you new to the concept of buying stuff?
is it realistic to hope for a better unit of the same product or are all of them going to be poorly assembled?
in that case need another product alltogether
It's part of the charm of using a Apple keyboard
>logishit is shit
what else is new
>'ich on 'ech
I am going to return it, I cannot live with that misalignment in the corner of my eyes, it triggers my ocd and I am just furious
the battery was only at 5% when unboxing, so I am suspecting this is a very old unit that has been rotting in stock
maybe it was like from the first production batch where everything was misaligned?
YOU'RE furious? Imagine how pissed logitech are over some autist returning an item over an issue a normal human cant even see.
We must defend the ten billion dollars corporation at all costs!

>have you checked the other side to see if that's the same
obviously
I doubt they care, I am still giving them free publicity and brand awareness
>I'm moronic why aren't you
I literally cannot see it. what's the issue here ?
Are you a homosexual? Be honest.

>thinking he gets 9 for symbols
Things are much worse mate.
>commonly used symbols in the alpha block requiring Alt Gr
Holy abomination.
All countries that have parentheses shifted one key left should be ashamed.
This keyboard key layout should not ever exist, that's the only thing I see here.
it's the normal layout for french speaking countries
it's not, actually

why is qwertz not the gold standard of keyboards?
why dont they make expensive custom split mechanical keyboards like ergodox, moonlander etc in quertz?
quertz is the end game
>reddit spacing
you can change the layout on ergodox, moonlander, etc.
>you can change the layout on ergodox, moonlander, etc.
yet it is not possible to have quertz with also french characters

dumb moron
dvorak is better
I don't see it.
But the keys have some movement within their switches, so this is expected and normal.
I bet they did on purpose because you use AZERTY. I would do the same.
>AZERTY
do frogs really?
I have the full sized MX mechanical and the aluminium sheet does overhang ever so slightly on top of the plastic from both sides.
>FRENCH
Hum, maybe don't buy toy keyboards?
it's 30 days where I live as long as the product is not damaged
Looks like some moron smashed their dick on a keyboard and thats how they ended up with a "maj" key
