 Everybody loves a good keyboard and one of my favorite keyboard companies is Matias. So I'm here with Selena from Matias and she's going to tell us about their existing products and the new things they're announcing right now. Thank you, thank you for coming by. Okay so I guess we're predominantly known in the Mac space and several years ago Apple stopped doing a wired version of their aluminum keyboard and so when they stopped doing that we introduced our version and we took over all of that business because we found that there were still you know a huge amount of people out there and especially businesses, things like schools, employers that wanted a wired version of the keyboard and they weren't able to get that so they come to us for that now. This looks just like the like the Apple keyboard it's got the little chicklets I love this chicklet feel to these keys this is fantastic but it's got a full nine keypad it's got the real arrow keys for all the arrow key junkies right? Absolutely and one core distinction between our keyboards and Apple's is we have more key travel so that's why you like the feeling of these keys so much we actually on this particular style it's a 2.1 millimeter key travel and that's huge. There's a 0.9 and of course on the phone it's nothing so you know for people that are that care about that it's a lot more ergonomic it just feels better. So this one is silver with white keys you've got you've got space gray and you don't have to buy an iMac Pro to get it huh? That's right and this particular one is ten keyless which means it has no number pad so some people prefer a more... That's interesting that's a compromise between the little tiny one and the full size so this has the arrow keys but it's still got home and end and a couple extra keys now is this wireless is that one's also wired? This one's Bluetooth. I'm a fan of wireless but I know people like wired keyboards. Absolutely so again we have a range so you know ten keyless to full size and we have Bluetooth wireless we do RGB backlit we do regular backlighting so there's a whole full range and also different colors as well. Obviously these are the most popular space gray and silver but we also do rose gold and gold. Oh there you go come on let's have some fun right all right so what are you announcing over here today? Okay so the new product that we have announced is a programmable Ergo Pro so this this is a completely different style of keyboard compared to these slim obviously these slim style over here. We're going to describe this in detail because this is audio as well by the way. Okay sounds good. So this is a split keyboard I've got there's two totally separate pieces. Totally separate so this is a lot more ergonomic so and as I was mentioning before regarding key travel this one has a 3.5 millimeter key travel distance. Oh wow it's pretty clicky too feels nice. So these are mechanical key switches this is our own quiet click mechanical key switch so it's I'm clicking and I'm hitting I've got my mic next to it. Mechanical key switches which are quiet which is that's a good trick yes because you know they're usually really loud so a lot of people love that and of course it can be configured in whichever way is most comfortable for you but obviously it's got these big gel wrist rest correct wrist pads right here so that makes those do those come off and well this right here is how you tend the keyboard so you could have negative tilt you could have it flat to start out to get kind of the hang of it but you can adjust it in whichever way works just keep moving it till it's comfortable so what you really want to do is you want it to be in line with the natural way that your arms neutral neutral exactly and more of a neutral position so normally you know you might be up like that you might not cause a lot of strain and repetitive strain on your wrists over time and again with the higher distance of key travel that tactile feedback is a lot more comfortable for your nervous system and for your wrists and and the feeling that you get in your fingertips over time it makes a big difference yeah yeah yeah so start what is was there something else you wanted to tell me well I was going to say you can as I was mentioning you can do different configurations so you could do say negative tilt if you wanted and that even straightens it out even more so it really tilted down and towards the laptop yeah so the way that your arms go so you're not up like that you'd be down more like that so it depends of course on how you have your desk set up whatever's comfortable for you that support thing so starting with your existing keyboards what kind of price points are we out in these so they range in price in the starting from the wired 10 keyless model from 55 up to 139 depending on the model that's not bad at all yeah that's great and how about the new Ergo keyboard so the new one I just wanted to mention one core sort of fun trick this one is programmable so so what that means is you can program in macros you know you can do words of up to excuse me sentences of up to 60 characters or words or keyboard shortcuts so wow text expander in a single button correct so I'll just give you an example oh just tapped one button and it said hi my name is Selena hope you love this keyboard that's great and you know there's a few others on here well my name is Steve it's fun to program the keyboard Steve did you get to the keyboard so and so for this particular model again it's being ergonomic and it's more of a substantial you know keyboard in terms of your health and your ergonomics so this one is priced at 220 so they're getting the range in price right it depends on what you want so so whereas this is 220 you can get one of these ones starting at 55 but how much is pain worth to you or lack of pain I think 220 is a good price that is very great very nice so where do people go to find these products well they can go to our website www.matias.ca and that's one T M-A-T-I-A-S.ca correct and you know we're available worldwide we have distributors all over the world you guys have been around for a long time always make great products I love that you've always supported the Mac and the Mac's better than ever now thank you so much it's great to hear that we really appreciate you coming by
