I know switches are just boring boxes anyway but that design looks so outdated and horrible. Also find it odd that they have put the power socket on the front of a desktop switch

It's around 100-120 USD.
Cheaper than rack-type switches that have 2.5gbps, but not exactly cheap.
We need TP-Link / ASUS to step in.
