HYTE aims to shake up the competitve keyboard market with the KEEB TKL, which has a novel clear polycarbonate chassis paired with aluminium plates and plenty of RGB LEDs for a stunning light show. It uses high quality pre-lubed switches and stabilizers for an excellent typing experience too.

The overall format reminds me a lot of the Apple G3-era keyboards of the late 1990's. Design is going to be a bit of an acquired taste, but looks super high quality. I see myself using this keyboard, though!
 
Not my cup of coffee.

But I'm a "super vanilla classic" coffee drinker, so anything with a bit of spice is to much for me ^^"

I have no shame in saying this....when it comes to keyboards, the more RGB, the better.. I've got a soft spot for completely translucent keyboards with obnoxious undergrowth, so I immediately got interested in this keyboard, but the price tag is hard to swallow and I have a difficult time arriving at that price considering the bill of materials and other factors.....plus there needs to be a white version....or better yet, an entirely clear version, but where it is currently black, in the clear version it would be a foggy/satin/brushed finish translucent plastic (think if I took clear acrylic and hit it with 400 or 600 grit sandpaper).....yeah

Freely own your RGB desires, no judgment here.

A keyboard and desk lamp in one. Now thats innovation :D

Not really my thing, but all the respect to the RGB gang. I've defo got my hands on RGB though and appreciate some lighting elements but I usually lean towards a more minimalistic approach. This, feels like an explosion of light.

Agreed! Plus, for me at least, RGB on a keyboard REALLY helps me to see when I type.

This keyboard though...I'm just going to say it: I HATE those goofy-looking roller things on the top. They completely kill the board for me. They're obnoxious to look at. They completely ruin the overall sleek look of the board. :shadedshu: :cry:
 
Looks interesting, but it's TKL, so hard pass..

They're certainly goofy looking, but utility overrides looks. Function over fashion. This makes the TKL choice even more baffling..
