Has anybody else noticed the difference in keyboard material between the Key One presentation and marketing materials, and the phone itself?

In renders they present the keyboard as being solid black plastic keys with a sort of matt finish, a bit like the Q10 keyboard that I loved.

But when you hold the actual device, the keys are made of transparent plastic, with the letters on a lower layer underneath.

Photographing transparent things with underlays tends to make them look solid and depending on the angle and lighting, matte.

*Artist's rendering, actual product may differ.

I only mention it because the keyboard on the product differs materially to the promo materials.

Renders are renders. The real thing has solid plastic keys with a clear coating to protect the labels.

Is the keyboard back lit? I assume yes.

Yes.
