Computer Peripherals Aesthetic Upgrade.

Even though I travel a lot for work, decided I could at least upgrade the aesthetics of my computer peripherals. They now all have a nice retro-futuristic vibe with the creamy light beige shell colors with some light grey secondary on the mouse buttons and wheel.

The big button/volume knob & loop tag on the speaker, as well as the small horizontal button on the mouse have a nice orange accent color while the esc and enter on the keyboard have a less vibrant dark pastel green as accents.

They all have a screen of some sort, mouse display shows battery, dpi, and connection type when you hit the horizontal orange button. The speaker has a dot matrix circle for showing volume number, simple reactive sound bars and I think you can make a custom design. And the keyboard shows calendar date and time a well as other info like connection type, language layout swap etc or you can put a custom image or gif like animation.

Keyboard takes inspiration from type writers and has a programmable knob/button on the right that defaults to volume and pause/play when dialed & clicked. Whole the lever arm on the left defaults to enter or backspace if you crank it up or down.

Hals some neat undercap glow patterns to choose from and a light bar along the top edge.

Got a nice slot for placing a phone or tablet in since you can Bluetooth connect as well as wired or dongle. Putting my Pixel Fold 2 on it makes it look like a sleek lazy man's cyberdeck setu.
