Heading to a White Elephant holiday party later this month? Shopping for a computer geek who already owns everything under the Sun? Then consider snagging this hilarious (and cheap) Copy and Paste 2-Key Keyboard as a gag gift. Not only is it bound to be one of the strangest gifts they receive this year, but it’s also entirely functional and can be programmed to carry out a variety of tasks.
$13
While this can be a fun gag gift, there’s actually some practicality for this little device. It comes preprogrammed to perform the Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V (copy and paste, respectively) keyboard shortcuts, which could be helpful for people who can’t normally press the default keybindings due to disabilities or other obstacles. The keys are also fully programmable, so you can create your own shortcuts for other keyboard shortcuts or computer functions like playing music, adjusting your volume, running a custom script, and more.
The 2-Key Keyboard also features customizable RGB lights, plug-and-play installation for Windows, and a five-foot USB cable. It’ll even work on Mac, though you’ll have to go through some manual configuration to get it working properly.
Looking for an actual gaming keyboard this holiday season? The premium Corsair K70 RGB Pro Wired Keyboard is discounted to just $130 (was $170), making this a solid time to upgrade your rig. Along with a soft-touch palm rest and Cherry MX RGB Red Switches, you’ll get a series of media keys and a programmable volume roller, plus full N-key rollover and a “Tournament Switch” that disables macros and adjusts your RGB lights to something less distracting.
Other good options include the Logitech G Pro Keyboard for $66 (was $130) and the 8BitDo Retro Keyboard for $86 (was $110). The latter is particularly enticing if you like the Copy and Paste 2-Key Keyboard, as the 8BitDo keyboard features Dual Super Buttons that work in much the same way. There’s also an included joystick for better control of your favorite arcade classics.
