Most Keyboards are a mix of design and usability. This looks like 99% design

I mean, it looks somewhat nice, but I really doubt it'll be comfortable to type on at all due to the angle being pretty extreme. Also overpriced AF.

The keycaps, which Serene sells separately for $415, are “fully aluminum with about 800 micro-perforations that make up the legends," Serene's website says, "allowing the LED light to pass through.”

So the price doesn't even include the keycaps...

Or does it mean I can also buy them separately for a custom built?

Sounds like this meth head that danced at a titty bar I used to work at

There's also a 4,000 mAh battery and “1/4-20” threads for professional accessory mounting, such as Picatinny rails.” One could also use the threads for mounting the keyboard onto monitor arms and hand grips.

Picatinny rails.

I've always wanted to mount a scope to my keyboard lol.

That looks like something Donald Trump would buy, and proudly display in his office, but have no idea how to use. I can feel the carpal tunnel just looking at it.
