Verified Buyer Reviewer: Anonymous Rating: 4/5 Great Feel, Very Noisy January 3, 2016 My particular keyboard had a few sticky keys, but the manufacturer's customer service was stellar. The keyboard is so noisy though - and since I operate on the phone I asked if there was a quiet version, which turned out to only have a PC-style keyboard. But they sent it immediately out to replace the Mac version, and I'm very happy with the tactile feel and relative quiet, although I hope they come out with a Mac version of it soon. I would recommend this item to a friend!

June 15, 2015 This is a great keyboard. I hated the wireless one from Apple, it ate batteries.

Now I don't have to play power angel with the keyboard. Urban factory minidisplay port to hdmi adapt with audio. The first keyboard I got didn't work. I called OWC and the tech guys sent another one. Prior to sending the second unit, they checked the replacement to make sure it would work properly. It did and does now too. My rating is for the product AND the Mac Sales team.

They're both great! I would recommend this item to a friend!

Verified Buyer Reviewer: Anonymous Age: 25-34 Experience Level: IT Professional Owned Product: over 6 months Rating: 5/5 The Best Keyboard I've Ever Used November 6, 2014 As a professional software engineer, I write code all day for work, and I write code all night for fun. Needless to say, I have begun to see the signs of a repetitive stress injury developing. Being mindful of this, I take frequent breaks, stretch, and try to practice good posture. In addition to this, I began to search for the perfect keyboard for coding on a Mac. I set some criteria that this mythical keyboard must have: - No numpad.

This reduces the distance my arm has to move to use the mouse. Mechanical switches with audible and tactile feedback. Easier to press, and easier to know that you have pressed a key. Mac Compatible. Unfortunately this ruled out 90% of the mechanical keyboards out there After much searching I finally found this Matias keyboard. It satisfied all of my criteria, and it even has some awesome extras: - built in USB hub like the wired Apple keyboards - super compact design that moves the arrow keys in closer, further reducing the mouse travel distance.

it comes with two high quality Micro-USB cords: one long one, and one short one that has an awesome reversible plug so you don't have to care what way is up when you plug it into your Mac. Nerd cred for having a mechanical keyboard that does use Cherry switches like all the rest (ALPS) I have been using this keyboard at work as a software engineer for the past 7 months, and I have nothing bad to say about it. A potential con, if you care about noise, is that this keyboard is fairly loud. Personally I don't mind, but I can't speak for my coworkers. I would recommend this item to a friend!

October 25, 2014 I recently acquired a new Mac Pro, and when purchasing it I wanted a new keyboard.

I’d been using electronic keyboards for quite a while, but thought I’d switch over to a keyboard with mechanical switches and give them a try. I ordered the Matias Mini Tactile Pro Keyboard from OWC Macsales, and I must say that I was more excited with this than the Mac Pro itself!

Everything stated in their advertising is right on: I can type at least twice as fast, and I make very few mistakes now. This keyboard it a beautiful unit, and a substantial one as well. I am very happy with this purchase and Macsales. I would recommend this item to a friend!

Product code: FK302 “The best keyboard Apple ever made” rises again. The Matias Tactile Pro Keyboard is built from the same premium keyswitch technology that Apple used in its original Apple Extended Keyboard, widely viewed as the best keyboard Apple ever made. Legendary Feel & Speed of Alps mechanical keyswitches. Mac users who crave the feel of the legendary Apple Extended Keyboard will love the Tactile Pro. Unlike other keyboards made today, each key is built on an individual Alps Mechanical Switch. They feel better, and you'll type faster. Version 4 — Mac-friendly function keys.

This latest Tactile Pro model brings tighter integration with Mac OS X. Just like an Apple keyboard, the Tactile Pro’s function keys now let you control screen brightness, volume, iTunes, and more. There's even an Fn key, that lets you momentarily change the function keys back to their traditional duties, when you need them. ™ € £ ¥ © are easy to find.

The Tactile Pro makes it easy to find ™ € £ ¥ © and other hard to remember symbols — they're all printed right on the keys. Simply hold down the Option key for the bottom-right characters, or Shift-Option for the top-right characters. Laser etched keys. All those symbols are handy, but what happens when they wear off? They're laser etched — burned into the keys with a laser — so they'll never wear off.

Sculpted keytops. The latest trend in keyboards is to have very flat & wide keys, with little or no space between them. You see this a lot on laptops and netbooks.

While they look great, they can also be a little tricky to type on. The flatness makes it very easy to slide out of home row and lose your bearings. The Tactile Pro bucks this trend.

It has traditional sculpted keytops, curved to fit your fingertips, and keep you from sliding out of home position. 3-port Hi-Speed USB 2.0 hub. For quickly attaching USB peripherals, nothing beats the convenience of an in-keyboard USB hub. No more reaching through the tangle of wires behind your computer to download photos from your digital camera. Just plug it into the keyboard and you're ready to go. Works great with MP3 players, keyring hard drives, joysticks, and mice too. It won't charge your iPod/iPhone, but for syncing it's perfect.

No ghost in this machine. Most keyboards allow only a certain number of keys to be pressed at once, and often cannot keep up with very fast typists.

The result is called ghosting — letters missing from what you actually typed, or additional letters that you didn't type. The Tactile Pro has special Anti-Ghosting Circuitry (also called n-key rollover) to eliminate these problems. You can type as fast as you're able; the Tactile Pro will keep up.
