    Customers like the comfort of the keyboard. They mention that it has an amazing feel, the tactile and auditory feedback the cherry MX blue switches provide is not only good, but it provides a nice even support across the entire keyboard, and they never have an issue. The volume knob is tactile and gives you some clicky feedback when you turn it, and it's smooth and functional out-of-the-box. It has a mature feel and does not have the mushiness found on most keyboards.

    "...Soft, and then resistance. Push through resistance and see letter appear, can immediately release and then press again...." Read more

    Customers are mixed about the keyboard quality. Some mention that it's a good typing keyboard, the key action is extremely crisp and precise, and the sound it makes is satisfying and not annoying. However, others say that the keys are ABS and not PBT, the "P" key snags when pressed, and built sturdy but they honestly dislike the way the keys feel. The ruler is built sturdy, but it doesn't prop up the keyboard very much, and it doesn’t find any usefulness of having a ruler on it. The worst part is the shift key.

    "Initial impression, The keyboard is what I hoped for. It's a good typing keyboard.WHY I BOUGHT DAS KB..." Read more

    "...Again the keystrokes on the Das are crisp and the sound it makes is satisfying and not obnoxious at all, at least to a person who likes mechanical..." Read more

    "...Typing speed and accuracy often improve, and finger fatigue is reduced compared to typing on keyboards where you have to bottom out each stroke..." Read more

    "...The keys are also abs and not PBT - it would be nice if they keycaps were PBT - for the price of the keyboard I feel like ABS keycaps are a bit..." Read more

    298 customers mention132 positive166 negative

    Customers are mixed about the value of the keyboard. Some mention that it's worth the price, while others say that it is overpriced for what you are getting. The Das 4 is not a cheap keyboard, and it'd be better off using a ruler.

    "...This just seems kind of dumb, and not an advantage over the conventional way of doing it...." Read more

    "...The money I paid is apparent in the product. This is priced as a luxury, premium product and seems to be just that...." Read more

    "...Pricing: Let's not beat around the bush though. This thing is expensive. Are you paying for the name? Yeah. Is it worth it? Yep (Imo)...." Read more

    "...It has a good feel but is it worth the money? That could be a bone of contention...." Read more

    282 customers mention161 positive121 negative

    Customers are mixed about the noise of the keyboard. Some mention that it has a slight clicking sound, while others say that it is too noisy for many situations. The mute button and volume control are appreciated, but some find the volume control wonky and annoying. Overall, the product is a mixed bag when it comes to noise.

    "...Again the keystrokes on the Das are crisp and the sound it makes is satisfying and not obnoxious at all, at least to a person who likes mechanical..." Read more

    "...If it weren't for the fact that the noise level using blues is higher than when using browns (disturbing to others but gratifying to the typist) I..." Read more

    "...The responsiveness and clicky sound is very satisfying...." Read more

    "...The brown switches were quieter than the blue switches, but I never got over the way they felt more “mushy” compared to the blue switches...." Read more

    A tale of two keyboards.
    I see that I can't write separate reviews for the Das Keyboard 4 Professional and the 4Q so I'll put them both here.I've had a DK 4 for several years at work for several years and it's a workhorse. When we shut down the office in 2020 and started working remotely I missed it right away. I decided to buy one for my home office.My workspace at home doesn't have the best lighting so I bought a DK 4Q, thinking the RGB backlight would help my old, tired eyes. The 4Q ended up having a few shortcomings that made it just not right for me. It's very well made. A tank, just like the DK 4 Professional. It's got good mass and the volume knob and basic multimedia controls are just enough. As I mentioned, there were some shortcoming though. It requires 2 USB plugs and the cable is quite thick. I would like to see them update the design with a removable (single) USB type C connector to run the keyboard, the backlighting, and the usb hub. Speaking of the hub, the 4Q's is only USB 2.0, not 3.0 like the 4 Professional. It feels like a step down.The per key RGB lighting is nice, allowing you to do just about whatever you want. The main legends on the keys are very bright BUT the secondaries -- the ~!@#$%^&*() seem very dim. I tried adjusting the brightness but it really didn't help. It's visible in a dark room but when the monitor is on its light washes it out. I'm not sure if it's because of the LED position on the switches, the keycaps, or a combination of both. The Q software honestly seems kind of clunky and I felt the idea of the applets for notifications on the keyboard to be kind of gimmicky and silly. Maybe I'm completely off base but the idea that keys changing color is going to notify me of system events seemed silly. It would take me longer to remember what an F1 key blinking red or a chartreuse E means. Plus, I don't spend that much time looking at the keys to begin with. Most of the time my eyeballs are watching the monitor -- which is much more adept at giving me information. I decided the 4Q just wasn't for me. Build wise I'd give it give stars *****, but for usability three ***.I ended up exchanging it for a 4 Professional, like the one I have at work. Although it too does have a couple flaws I find it to be a top notch keyboard. Like the 4Q I do wish they'd give it a removable cable. Either usb3 or type-C. As I mentioned my home office is a bit on the dark side. The gray on black keys on the DK 4 Pro are great in good light but did give me some problems when things weren't as bright. I ended up buying a set of lighter colored low profile replacement key caps and some rubber O rings to go under them and I feel like I've got the best keyboard EVER! My DK4 now gets 5 stars all across! *****
