Purpose: compare candidate setups in the actual working position. Use synthetic information, the same host/app/layout, equal familiarization and repeated trials.
Date / operator:
Handheld model / OS / app / language:
Keyboard model / connection / driver or firmware:
Cable, adapter, stand, case, power source:
Documentation link and supported configuration:
Working posture and surface available:

PRECHECK
Connection works; correct host capability and power confirmed:
Layout produces required punctuation, symbols and accents:
Shortcuts, selection and field navigation work:
Every required control has visible, reachable keyboard focus where needed:
Sleep/wake reconnects without losing or repeating first characters:

SYNTHETIC PRACTICE NOTE (not a standardized typing test)
Please deliver 12 blue folders to Room 204 on Friday. Keep the invoice with the parcel, and ask Morgan to confirm receipt. Reference: TEST-204-A.
Try any additional accented characters or symbols needed for your own work.
Identifier exercise (check character by character; case matters):

BOX-007
ITEM-O0
REF-1I1
TEST-204-A
Change 'blue' to 'green', undo, restore the intended final text, save and reopen it.

TRIAL RECORD (copy this block for each candidate and repetition)
Candidate / trial number / passage used:
Entry time (minutes and seconds):
Correction time (minutes and seconds):
Total task time = entry + correction:
Final word count, if comparing passages:
Final words per minute = final word count / total minutes:
Remaining character errors / identifier errors:
Sleep/wake result:
Comfort, missed keys, screen visibility and repositioning notes:
Essential acceptance criteria set BEFORE trial:
Decision and reason:

ARTICLE'S FICTIONAL EXAMPLE (a different 100-word passage)
Thumb keyboard: 4 minutes entry + 1 minute correction = 5 minutes; 100/5 = 20 final words/minute.
Folding keyboard: 3 minutes entry + 30 seconds correction = 3.5 minutes; 100/3.5 = approximately 28.6 final words/minute.
These are task-completion rates, not standardized typing scores or measured product results. A required table can disqualify the faster setup.
