Have you tried putting your tablet or iPad down and try typing on the screen? How does it feel?

Yup. I doubt I too can have the muscle memory that I do typing now where I can just look at the screen my my hand feels the keys on the keyboard and muscle memory knows there to place my fingers on the keys.

As opposed to placing my fingers on glass. If you enjoy the lack of functionality and constantly staring at your glass keyboard instead of your screen, then sure, go ahead.

中看不中用(pleasant to the eye but of no use) product. good to make visitors to your place go "wow" only. Typing or game with it would be a nightmare.

It’s easy to clean and will be freaking silent. My type of keyboard.
But the price will put me off for sure.

Somethings are good to look at, but impractical. The next thing they will introduce a tempered glass protector to go with this keyboard. :s22:

this is a keyboard that looks cool but no nice to use. Its not a new concept. Been done before. However they all failed due to lack of feel. Lack of key travel means you cant feel what you are pressing. Some tried to use vibration to simulate pressing of key but they all dont work. Bigger problem is sensing key press as pple tend to rest their fingers on the keys.

However there are cases where such keyboards are better choice. Eg. You need something spill proof, something outdoor (like a touch panel). But they are not for daily office use
