| shoddy construction for the price |
| I type all day for a living, so when I read about the easy scissor key action on this keyboard, I bought it. The action doesn't disappoint; it is the easiest, most comfortable action I've seen in a full-sized keyboard.
My quarrel is with the construction and dependability of the keyboard. I'm actually typing this on my third Celesta. The first one had to be sent back right away because my Mac didn't recognize it (it's made for the Mac!). The second one, the USB cord started coming loose from the connector after just a few months of use. Now, on this third Celesta, the delete key has gone all wobbly. The company, Aevoe, is somewhat responsive (takes several days to get a reply), and always has followed up and stood behind their product with me, but I'm just getting sick of having to send in for a new one every few months. For the cost, this thing should be not only pretty, but much more solidly built.
| | The best Mac keyboard I've used |
| I have been using the Moshi Celesta keyboard for several weeks and I am very pleased wit the performance. The form factor is comparable to the OEM wireless keyboard. The backlight is a nice touch. The light does not come on unless a specific key is pressed (eg caps lock), so it generally is not a nuisance. The key travel and feedback are what really sets the keyboard apart. Much better than Apple's keyboard. Also, the previous reviewer was incorrect. There are two USB ports conveniently concealed on the right side of the keyboard. I would give the keyboard 5 stars if it were wireless. But then again, that would require it to lose the on board USB ports. Nonetheless, you can't go wrong with this keyboard.
| | Looks cool, has very few perks |
| I bought two of these. First I got the black one but I could not see the letters on the keys so I returned it and ordered the silver one. It looks very cool and is very well made. The issue I have with it is that for the money there are better options. The LED in the back is distracting and only makes me want backlit keys. It has no USB ports and the iTunes controls are in an odd place IMO. I love the short throw scissor/laptop style keys but the lack of ports and the borderline ridiculous price make it cooler than it really is. I returned it. the Tab key on the left side had a short throw. Sort of a 'this key is starting to break' feel to it. That's why I was replacing my Kensington, I broke the f key. And I f'n need it for chats-
