For the sake of style, you have to fork out.
A new interesting project has appeared on Kickstarter: the Fineday 3.0 keyboard from South Korean designers. This is an aluminum wireless mechanism designed to look like a classic typewriter.
Cherry MX blue switches are used here - clicky, which adds entourage when printing. The keys are made by hand, when ordering, you can choose between the layout for Windows or macOS. There is a backlight, the brightness is controlled by a knob on the left side of the case, while the right one controls the volume. There is also a lever - it allows you to go to the next line if the "Enter" key does not seem authentic enough.
The keyboard connects to a computer, smartphone or tablet via Bluetooth 5.0, and a wired USB connection is also supported. There are Windows/macOS and Bluetooth/USB switches on the back of the case. The keyboard supports pairing with three devices at the same time with the ability to quickly switch through Fn.
Fineday 3.0 was priced at $1,100 (≈89,200 rubles), but the device can be pre-ordered at the crowdfunding stage on Kickstarter at a price of 655 dollars (≈53,900 rubles). Sending orders and the start of open sales is expected in August.
