Matias announces back-lit, full-sized, wireless Mac keyboard


Matias introduced a back-lit version of its full-size wireless keyboard. This basically brings backlighting similar to Apple's laptops on a full-sized wireless keyboard.

The keyboards are aluminum and have bluetooth connectivity. This means it works on both macOS and iOS, and I guess too tvOS. The wireless keyboard offers 1 year battery life, and interestingly, the back-lit keys run off of a second battery so you won't drain the main keyboard battery while lit.

What's interesting about the Matias keyboard is it's a full-sized wireless keyboard with Apple-like function keys. Apple sells wireless keyboard and full-sized keyboard, but not a wireless full-sized keyboard. And then Matias adds on backlighting in this announcement.

The Wireless Aluminum Keyboard with backlight is expected to ship in June for $139.
