Bluetooth Retro Classic - ARTISAN United Kingdom Layout

I splashed out on this, and by gosh, what a keyboard. It feels - and weighs - the same as an old-style typewriter. Has a rather steampunk feel to it. Looks gorgeous. Great build quality. The only downside is it shipped with a Mac keyboard layout, and I have a PC. There doesn't seem to be a way to specify which layout you want in advance, either on Amazon or on the Azio web store, which seems a bit of an ommission. It does ship with a bag of spare keys, including keys for whichever type of computer you don't have, however. You could look on this as a feature rather than a bug, as if you ever ditch your PC for a Mac, or vice versa, you'll be able to re-use this keyboard with your new toy after a few tweaks. To change Mac keys for PC keys, you just gently prise the pre-existing key up and off, and then slip a swap key into the vacant mount ... you need to search for 'How do I change keycaps?' video on the official AZIO support page to see this in action. I see some of the other reviews mentioned they weren't getting the UK layout shipped. I did get the UK layout out of the box - the case even comes with a little sticker mentioning this. In summary, built like a Panzer, looks and drives like an Aston Martin. Very happy!

Music on a Mac Pro. Bluetooth refused to pair even at close quarters, but wired usb works well. Very solid construction. Looks amazing, feels chunky. Does not clack like a typewriter, but has greater travel than a normal mac keyboard.

A nice keyboard but was advertised as UK keyboard yet had to spend time changing the keys. The keyboard didn't work on either bluetooth or USB cable on my laptop so I ended up getting a cash refund. Noticed that US versions of this keybaord are cheaper - as they provide the extra keys - save yourself some money and order it from the US for half the price... I'm sticking to my microsoft ergonomic keyboard for now. That all said, I think the keyboard looked extremely cool! :-)

No problems with Bluetooth or usb connections. It's heavier and chunkier than I thought it would be, and I actually like this aspect of it, it also sits higher on the desk than expected and along with the round keys it's improved my typing accuracy. It has refreshed my idea to create an Atomic Punk home desk area, so I can have some fun when WFH.

I love the product and the feel of it. However well made it is topo expensive, I indulged myself to buy it. But... after only three weeks one of the keys cut out and I have little confidence that the rest will not follow, given the mechanism. That is poor. Also cannot get an exchange so having to refund. I don't think I will buy another, I have no confidence that it will be any better, and it is expensive when all is said and done.

This keyboard is excellent so far, and very satisfying to type on. A very nice clickety clack sound whilst typing. The travel distance on the keys is just right. It came with both mac and windows keys. The mac ones were on at the start (why?!), so I had to faff around swapping them out, but it only took 5 mins. I'm using it plugged in with the usb cable, so can't comment on the bluetooth or battery. Plastic backing, which is a shame, since the front is real wood and metal. Just e warned, this keyboard is pretty high, so that might be an issue, depending on your typing style. Fine for me though. So yeah, it looks awesome and feels awesome. A win.

Honestly one of the best things I’ve bought for myself. The negative reviews for this keyboard are honestly not true reflection. The keyboard itself is stunning. It types beautifully and it connected to my Mac via Bluetooth instantly no drama. It’s a bit expensive but when you factor in the fee that the company would have paid to get it here it all adds up. I’m so in love. So much so that I wrote a review and i never write reviews.

Could not get it to work via USB which is core functionality. Connected BT after some effort but that is no good to me. Style over substance.
