Pricey
Some users may miss multimedia commands.
Expensive. No onboard audio ports. Inconvenient footbar for angling up keyboard
Pricey for the feature set
No key backlighting
Magnetic "footbar" doesn't tilt the body as much as we'd like
No Backlighting
No Macros/Profiles
Kind Of Pricey
Media control keys not matched to the other keys on the keyboard
Sullying its aesthetics
Some media playback and control wrinkles
No backlighting
No software for customization
Wired-only
Mediocre ergonomics
Very expensive
104-key layout includes no media controls
Other special keys
No extras
Clacking noise may irritate others.
No more typing on the sly while on conference calls. Zero ergonomic features.
Mediocre stock keycaps
Only one-year warranty if purchased from an official third-party retailer
Glossy finish picks up dust and fingerprints very easily
The dedicated media keys are a nice addition but some macro keys would have been even nicer. Lack of backlighting seems like an unfair omission for a $169 keyboard. No wrist rest option.
Incredibly durable, workhorse keyboard, Blue switches feel great
Where are the macros?, It sounds like a 1940s typewriter
The Das Keyboard 4 Professional is a great basic board. It has an uncompromising, no-frills style that you'll come to respect, even if that means it won't be the go-to board for gamers. The MX Blue switches will be a relaxing reprieve for those coming fr...
Expensive, No extras, Clacking noise may irritate others
Typing purists, gamers, and computing old schoolers will love the Das Professional Keyboard and its satisfying mechanical switch design. Most casual users, however, will balk at the AU$132 price for such an otherwise spare input device. ...
Abstract: Das Keyboard 4 is more about typing than about appearance, after all. Unlike Apple's continued push to get smaller/thinner and do away with cables, the Das Keyboard 4 is exactly as large as a keyboard should be. It takes up space on your desk because a ke...
