Interesting departure from their usual style with the glossy finish (which I'm not a huge fan of) and seemingly hollow underbody - how will this affect build quality?

I guess the most prominent thing is the knobs to the right which are presumably for volume control and...?

Looks awful. Glossy is bad. That case shape isn't any good either. Those knobs look way too big.

[Drown]

The shape with the feet standing out isn't very appealing, glossy finish is a nightmare for a keyboard and the knobs look too big. I'd rather have low-profile knobs that don't stand out as much.

[SirRoderick]

Glossy finish, knobs from the 80s and unadjustable feet?!

 

This is going BACK in design

Just if it wasn't glossy... apart from that it looks pretty cool and unique for a Ducky Then again there is always Plasti-dip.

Not sure if troll or serious teaser

Probably a serious teaser... they did a similar one for their new Legend keyboard and the new Mini a few days ago. They are probably doing it to get the hype train going before Computex

I actually think this looks really great

[tharvey]

This is way better

[Guest Generallee]

Not for me

 

I'm gonna get a lot of hate for this but ... i prefer this

 

 

 

Completely unnecessary, but so badass.

I pretty much agree with that entirely. My exact thoughts after looking at it.

 

Stop stealing the words out of my mouth, Verne!

You forgot to mention it's also extremely expensive

Yeah it is... But its freakin awesome.  I'm trying to convince my boss that I need one for work.  :rolleyes:

[Accursed Entity]

I don't like it, I prefer this style:

If it was "on the house" expense wise I would put forth effort convincing my supervisor too. I definitely wouldn't buy it with my own money though. Over $150 for a keyboard is my limit

Alrighty then Mr. Negative

[Whiskers]

I want to see a hands-on review from someone before judging. Glossy is usually not something I like, but with the correct coating it can be surprisingly fingerprint resistant. As for the rest of it... well, one photo from one angle isn't enough for me to judge.

 

It is interesting, at least. Very different for Ducky.

[miyabwah]

That's a different form factor that pretty much no one has done before, but I personally think the media knobs are way too big..

[Warcony]

Looks like an ugly version of the k70. Those knobs man...
