The Matias Tactile Pro for Mac, however, is merely passable at its $139 price point. If you're considering buying a Wired Keyboard in the $100 range, you might want to check out some of its competitors.

That's high praise coming from reliable sources.

Due to the difference in their prices, however, it's important to keep in mind that a direct Logitech K800 (2010) vs. Matias Tactile Pro for Mac comparison might not be entirely fair - some sources don't take value for money into account when assigning their scores and therefore have a tendency to rate more premium products better.
