AZIO's "Retro Classic" is a typewriter -like mechanical keyboard that is perfect for those who like steam punk and vintage items.This is a review by John Biggs.
It takes a little time to get used to this $ 299 keyboard.Since the key cap is round, it is a little strange at first, and the layout is wide, so you can move your hand more than a compact design keyboard.It is a solid key, but strictly speaking, it is not a "performance -oriented" keyboard, so you will notice that the speed will drop a little until you get used to it.Anyway, it is a product that emphasizes the design, and if you arrange the Bluetooth mouse of the same series, the coordination of the peripheral devices is perfect.It is a perfect keyboard for those who plan to create a special desk.

Retail price: $ 299 What is this?
Retro Bluetooth keyboard for those who like steam punk
Favorite place: Design is wonderful and high -quality material
I don't like it: It's not a keyboard that emphasizes performance, and it's not as good as craftsmanship.
As you can see, this keyboard and palm rest are quite unique.Designed to look like a typewriter, the key with backlight is made of sophisticated aluminum, with a deep key stroke and a beautiful key cap like a typewriter.The top plate on the keyboard is covered with a calf or lamb leather, so it's not a vegan keyboard.The frame is also made of aluminum.
Retro Classic is a full -size keyboard, so there is a numeric keypad and an independent keyboard on the right.From a compact keyboard fan, this model is too big, but if you are used to using a number key for gaming and calculation, it will be a good choice.6 key roll over is compatible, so light gaming is possible.
The key switch uses a customized Blue switch from KAILH, a very famous electronic device manufacturer.The connection is Bluetooth or wired USB, and if you use the attached Mac key cap, it can be changed to your favorite OS or array.Bluetooth radio or USB-C port, Windows PC or Mac switches both from the back switch.
I personally like a more standard IBM -like keyboard, but I enjoyed working on this keyboard for a while.This is a good improved version with one keyboard as seen on sites such as DROP.Because it is a product that looks better than the contents, it is perfect if $ 299 with a palm rest.Although it is not used for everyday devices, it is an item that you will definitely use when you care about a steam punker.
Retro Classic is a multi -colored development that contains limited colors of emerald and amber.Black is the most plain, and some models use wood on the top plate.Whether or not to use this keyboard is a matter of preference than technical needs, which is more than enough for peripheral devices, but not for hackers.That said, if you want to make a typing sound like a hemmingway heading to Olivetti, it will be a suitable gadget.
