SA to get Microsoft Arc keyboard
Microsoft South Africa today confirmed that it would be releasing the company’s newly designed Arc keyboard to the local market.
Like the previously released Arc Mouse, the keyboard features a curved design and has been conceptualised with portability in mind.
“The design tenets that we looked to for the Arc Keyboard were simplicity and crisp softness, creating an aesthetic for this product that is casual and sophisticated at the same time,” said Monique Chatterjee, industrial designer for Microsoft Hardware. “We drew our design inspiration directly from the places where we envision this product will be used so it perfectly blends with existing home accessories.”
The unit weighs less than 500 grams includes a snap-in Nano transceiver which allows for movement. It operates on a 2.4GHz wireless frequency and has a range of roughly ten meters.
The Arc Keyboard is available for the retail price of R799.00 and includes a three year warranty.
