Das Keyboard was on a mission. Years before the internet realized just how cool mechanical keyboards could be, they set out to prove exactly that. Today, we’re looking at the Das Keyboard 4 Ultimate or, as they call it, the Bad Ass(4). Let’s find out just how bad ass it is, shall we?

    I have this keyboard actually, the same one w/ the brown mechanical switches. I bought it to use for software development.

    Not really a fan tbh. It's just too noisy and the keys bottom out too much for my liking. It has like a plastic tapping on metal sound, which annoys me. I understand mechanical keyboards are supposed to have noise, it just isn't a satisfying key click sound like I get on my G910 keyboard I use for gaming. Also the larger keys, like space bar, back space, enter, shift, tab, and caps lock, don't feel well supported.

    But hey, it did come w/ a free ruler!

    A keyboard review with no mentioning of anti-ghosting features... Feels like a commerical.

    (their website says nothing about anti-ghosting as well https://www.daskeyboard.com/daskeyboard-4-ultimate/)

    Sadly the PBT keys they use are the cheaper "thin PBT" that is not much better than ABS.



    You can clearly see this in the picture showing the key cap walls thickness when pulled off the MX Brown switch



    Yes, they are fairly thin walled. I wish they were standard PBT.

    Das Keyboard is solid, nothing great but nothing horrible either. I felt like Mad Catz had the right design philosophy when it comes to gaming keyboards though, its a shame they went bottom up.
