- The 12.8 -inch Keygo screen offers net visuals despite a compressed 1440p arrangement for multitasking
- The scissors change keys offer a tactile typing experience adapted to serious work or long sessions
- RGB lighting improves visibility in low light conditions while allowing personal customization
Small external screens have regularly become essential for those looking for flexible workflows and improved multitasking capacities.
The new Keygo keyboard by Yanko Design merges a 12.8 -inch touch screen monitor with a full -size keyboard.
It aims to create a hybrid device that extends the traditional workspace without requiring a complete desktop configuration.
A screen built for precision
This concept is ambitious, but its practical appearance is limited by the absence of an integrated battery, which means that users must remain connected to a power source for prolonged use.
The integrated display provides a resolution from 1920×720 to 60 Hz, which could initially raise eyebrows among people accustomed to conventional monitors 1080p.
However, the design mainly compresses a 1440p screen through a wider provision, producing a pixel density which maintains the net text and the visuals reasonably clear.
For professionals who rely on portable monitors or a monitor for video publishing, this resolution oriented towards the width provides a secondary screen usable for reference documents, deadlines or notifications, even if it cannot completely replace a main 4k display.
The keyboard uses scissors change keys, which offer reactive dactylography experience comparable to high -end laptops.
This design minimizes the often criticized “pastry” sensation of cheaper units, allowing rapid and precise typing.
RGB lighting is integrated into three modes, supporting work in weakly lit environments and allowing a degree of personalization.
Although the visual flair can appeal to players, professional users can appreciate the practicality of illuminated keys during prolonged work sessions.
Connectivity is managed via USB-C, simplifying connections to laptops, tablets or smartphones on Windows and MacOS platforms.
The unique solution manages both power and data, which reduces the size and rationalizes the configuration of mobile professionals.
Despite its fine construction of maacious aluminum of CNC, which gives it a premium sensation, the device remains somewhat limited by its dependence on external power.
It also comes with a hinge at 180 degrees, allowing users to orient the touch screen above the keys or to keep it completely standing in the form of a second monitor.
While Keygo revisits ideas that recall Apple’s touch bar, it extends the concept in an autonomous and multi-touch interface.
The price starts at $ 538, although the first donors can buy Keygo for $ 249, which represents a 54%discount.
The product also includes global shipping and a one -year guarantee, and the company claims that there are only 23 of the 200 units left.
