A comfortable, well-built upgrade over a standard laptop or Apple keyboard with handy customisation, though palm rest is extra and the app lacks mobile support.

A capable productivity keyboard with good typing feel, but the price, dim backlight and bulky size make it hard to recommend at full cost.
