Kinesis mWave split mechanical keyboard for Mac

An ode to the Kinesis mWave Mac

The Sculpt is dead, long live the mWave

For those who miss the Microsoft Sculpt: the Kinesis mWave Mac is your new best friend. With a split design, mechanical switches and an integrated numeric keypad, this keyboard is a worthy successor. No more compromises, but a keyboard that truly thinks with you.

Why the Kinesis mWave Mac?

Ergonomics and functionality in one

The mWave Mac combines an ergonomic design with modern functionality. The split design and integrated tenting ensure a natural hand position, while the mechanical switches provide a pleasant typing experience. With both wired and wireless connectivity, this keyboard is flexibly deployable.

Programmable and customisable

Thanks to the Kinesis Clique Programming Engine, the keyboard is fully programmable. Adjust the layout, set macros and switch between different profiles. All without installing additional software.

What makes the mWave Mac so good?

The combination of ergonomics, programmability and high-quality build makes the mWave Mac an excellent choice for professionals who type a lot. The low actuation force of the switches reduces fatigue, while the negative tilt and wrist rests provide extra comfort.
