Das Keyboard 4 features brushed aluminium and USB 3.0

The last Das Keyboard dates from 2009 so it was high time for an update. Just like its predecessors, the new Das Keyboard 4 features mechanical switches but it now has a brushed aluminium top panel, a pair of USB 3.0 ports, a dedicated sleep button, an oversized volume button and some optimizations to reduce vibration. You can get the Das Keyboard 4 with or without key labels, the Cherry MX Blue version costs $169 while the Cherry MX Brown variant costs $173. You can find the full details over here.
