What have we here?

A new keyboard from KBT. Looks like a sleek next generation Pure to me, cased in aluminium?

I only just stumbled into this at KB Talking. Check out the translation. Now if they have this in PBT and MX Greens…

The branding is kind of tacky, but I like the case nonetheless.

Right angled USB cable:

As seen (confusingly) sitting on top of a MacBook Air.

The milling (or whatever you call this surface texture) looks pretty.

Pictures are from the set.

Looks really retro!

What a shame that they did not opened it and revealed the innards ;(

I imagine that "Tex" likely means American-style. As in Apple! Albeit the wrong state.

I think only the top of the keyboard is aluminium.

I really like the look and proportions.
