A G80-11900 with double shot keycaps

The Cherry G80-11900 TouchBoard is a series of PC-compatible keyboards with built-in track pad. It is made by Cherry.

Variations

PS/2 models usually have a lasered Cherry logo on the left side (below <ESC>) and a cable that splits in two for track pad and keyboard respectively. USB models usually have a red Cherry logo on the right side (below <Pause/Break>) and a single USB cable.

Unlike the G80-11800, no older winkeyless models have been spotted.

Switches

All keyboards have linear Cherry MX Black switches.

Track pad

The track pad has two small buttons in front of it.

Layout and key caps

The keyboard part has the same layouts (in both ISO and ANSI) and key caps as the G80-11800 series with Windows keys.

Boards are light grey or black, with keys in the same colour. Key cap material has been lasered PBT (light grey), lasered with infill POM (black) and double-shot ABS.

All keys on the bottom row except the space bar are one unit wide. The space bar fits also the G80-11800 and G80-1800 with Windows keys, but no other board.

The right <Shift> key is 2 units wide and has stabilizers, unlike the G80-1800 where this key is 1.75 units wide. The <ESC> key, the keys on the function key rows (there are two of them) and num pad keys all have the size and profile of the keys of the home row.

G80-11800 is similar but has a trackball instead of track pad.
