Desk Upgrades · Worth the Upgrade
Electronic Materials Office Altar II
An impossibly thin 75% mechanical keyboard with a detachable magnetic control dial, subtle haptics, a built-in speaker, and the kind of engineered drama most desk gear only pretends to have.
A 4.75mm mechanical keyboard sounds like a design-school fever dream. The genuine trick is that it still packs a full function row, Bluetooth, USB-C, programmable controls, and a real mechanical switch system into the act.
