Severance Fans Rejoice: Customizable $699 Keyboard Inspired by 'The Mark'
Summary of Severance-Inspired Keyboard
A company called Atomic Keyboard is developing a keyboard inspired by the Apple TV+ show Severance. The concept has gained traction among mechanical keyboard enthusiasts due to its vintage-inspired design and unique keycap profiles, which reflect the show's dystopian aesthetic.
Survey for User Input
Atomic Keyboard is conducting a survey to gather user feedback on several aspects of the keyboard. One of the main points of discussion is whether to include an Escape key, which was notably absent from the show’s prop but is essential for practical use. The company offers three layout options:
- Severance Layout: This option stays true to the retro aesthetic and includes remappable keys with QMK support. It also comes with Escape and Control keycaps.
- Standard Layout: A full 60% layout that includes all essential keys, making it more user-friendly but less faithful to the show's design.
- Standard Layout (with HHKB style bottom row): This option combines a standard layout with an HHKB-style bottom row for a unique typing experience.
Pricing and Availability
The pricing for this keyboard is set between $399 and $699, but there’s a possibility it could go even higher due to tariffs. Despite the high price point, enthusiasts can still participate in the survey and provide their input before the final production phase.
