You don’t want to count the number of hours you spend in front of a computer each day, it’ll make you want the time back. So, why spend it typing on a keyboard that looks and feels like it was sold out of a back alley for $10? A great keyboard has the ability to transform a mundane experience into one that’s actually pleasurable, especially when it’s built like the new Azio Retro Compact. This mechanical keyboard looks like it came out of Ninja Batman’s office supply store thanks to its film noir-like aesthetic. Crafted with real wood, metal, and genuine leather appointments, the RCK might make you actually look forward to work or whatever computer-based drudgery you have to make your way through. The rounded keys copy old typewriters, while a USB-C charging cable, Bluetooth connectivity, a rechargeable battery, and Mac and PC swappable backlit keycaps make it truly modern. It also works on smartphones and tablets for added convenience. You can choose between four finishes, and it also comes with a built-in wrist rest and interchangeable feet for optimal ergonomics. Chalk up another lesson on how to make modern tech old school wonderful.
