These things are made in such small numbers that they’ll never get economies of scale. They’re typically 2x the cost of even the already high price of regular mechanical keyboards.
- gotoliao 6y agoThat makes me wonder why Logitech is not mass producing one already!
- Symbiote 6y agoLogitech used to make a split keyboard -- it was the first split keyboard I owned. It had normal keys rather than the low-profile ones I dislike. This year, they introduced a low-profile split keyboard [1], but wanting a normal-profile one is what led me to assemble a DIY kit myself.

- simias 6y agoUh. I blame Apple for making flat profile keyboards trendy on the desktop. I really dislike them as well and they're all over the place now.
- TacticalTable 6y agoContrary viewpoint: I actually really enjoy Apple's chiclet keyswitches, and I think my dream keyboard is a wireless chiclet Ergodox.
- mcpeepants 6y agoKailh has their Choc switches which are low profile. Not quite chicklet but fills the same role for the most part. Low-pro lovers seem to like them quite a bit.
