The Naya Create modular keyboard is now available for purchase

The Naya Create modular keyboard is now available for general purchase after being an exclusive for Kickstarter backers.It features a split hinge design that lets users adjust each half independently to support a natural wrist posture and to reduce arm pronation.Split designs are not uncommon, as there are several on our list of the best ergonomic keyboards, but the assistive features don't stop there.The columnar-staggered key layout positions have been manufactured to align with natural finger movements to provide a "more fluid and less fatiguing typing experience."As for the actual keys, each and every socket is hot-swappable so users can switch between linear, clicky or tactile switches.

The keyboard also boasts a metal unibody and "durable, custom-sculpted, laser-etched polycarbonate keycaps."The modular nature of this keyboard goes a bit further than rival models.Customers can attach modules with different functionalities.There's a trackball, a touchpad and a pair of input dials.

These dials feature a dynamic haptic motor that adjusts resistance based on the software.All of this hardware is assisted by Naya's Flow software.This app manages the entire ecosystem of devices, which lets users "build their perfect setup in seconds" via drag-and-drop keymapping.The Naya Create can connect via Bluetooth, low-latency RF or USB-C cable.It also includes RGB keycap lighting for even more personalization.

Each unit ships with a hardshell travel case and an accessory kit that includes switch samples and a keycap puller.Prices start at $500 and those modular accessories range from $80 to $180.Shipments go out at the end of the month.
