The keyboard uses a similar symmetrical design to the HHKB, eliminating the arrow keys, but the official design of a Touch Pannel touchpad is below the spacebar. Officially, through the interaction of touch instead of physical keys, touch sliding to indicate the direction is more intuitive than lifting the wrist to find the directional keys.
Other aspects of the keyboard include removing some of the less frequently used keys on the far right side, moving one of the R5 keys up to R4, and lengthening the earlier HHKB spacebar from 6.25U to 7U to form a complete and symmetrical T-shaped column, while the addition of the touch directional keys and the 2U backspace retains the 65’s usage habits intact.
