“I’ve owned at least two inductive keyboards, each costing more than twice the price of the Magcore65, but none of them sound or feel as good, so I’m sticking with this one.”

“I love the sound, the keyboard was shipped fast, but i have found some of the keys have input issues at times where it doesn't register the key being pushed”
“I received an informative sms two months ago that the keyboard is arriving, It has still not arrived.”
