Tom’s Guide readers told me they’d never buy a TKL keyboard — so I’ve handpicked my top keyboards with a number pad, starting at just $44

A week ago, I wrote about how much I loved the Epomaker Glyph, a typewriter-style mechanical keyboard that's nothing short of a dream. Tom's Guide readers seemed to enjoy the article, and they complimented the Glyph's style, but there was a sticking point for them: the lack of a number pad.

"Personally, I would never buy it — no numeric keypad is a total deal breaker," and "No keypad = dealbreaker," stuck out to me. Personally, I've never really found much use for a number pad, which is why I prefer 75% TKL keyboards. But I know not everyone feels that way, and that not having a numpad can be an issue for many.
