Is it for you
Buy it if
- Three machines on one desk and one keyboard between them
- You want mechanical feel without mechanical height
- Backlighting that reacts to your hands approaching
Skip it if
- You intend to change switches later — these are soldered
- You want the deep travel of a full-height board
The reason to buy this over an enthusiast board is the thing enthusiast boards ignore: pressing one key moves your typing to a different computer. Logitech’s Flow and Bolt stack is still the most reliable multi-device setup available.
The switches are low-profile and soldered in. That is a real limitation if you care about feel, and a non-issue if you wanted a better office keyboard rather than a hobby.
