Sharkoon has announced with the PureWrite a new machanical keyboard
With the PureWriter, Sharkoon now presents a flat, mechanical keyboard for lovers of the number block. It also offers separate multimedia keys for volume control, play/pause or to simply launch the preferred media player. The PureWriter is large at 436 mm long and 127 mm wide, and again frameless, compact and flat. The aluminium alloy top cover improves the stability of the keyboard. Technically, the keyboard is equipped with n-key rollover, anti-ghosting keys and a polling rate of 1,000 Hz, making it state of the art.
The new PG1350 series switches from Kailh made the flat construction of the Sharkoon PureWriter TKL a possibility. The same switches are used again in the PureWriter, or rather, the 3-block layout version: The Sharkoon PureWriter Blue offers an acoustic, tactile switch with a detectable switching point. The distance to actuation point is 1.5 mm while the operating force is 55 grams. The Sharkoon PureWriter Red offers a linear switch, undetectable switching point and click point, operating force of 45 grams and 1.5 mm distance to actuation point. Both versions have a keycap height of 6.2 mm and the keys have a minimum operating life cycle of 50 million keystrokes.
The blue LED illumination is infinitely adjustable and offers a multitude of pre-programmed lighting effects. Customized lighting can be programmed on-the-fly and saved in five profiles, for example individual lighting of single keys. All settings are made directly on the keyboard; therefore, software is not necessary and thus not included in delivery. The PureWriter connects via one of the two included USB cables, each with a gold-plated micro-B and type A plug. The 50 cm long cable is perfect to connect the keyboard with notebooks; the 150 cm long cable is suitable for conventional PCs. The PureWriter is compatible with Windows 7/8/10. With an OTG adapter, Android devices, such as smartphones and tablets, can also be used.
The Sharkoon PureWriter is now available in either red or blue mechanical switches for the suggested retail price of 79.90 euros from authorized retailers.
