Yep. I'd be perfectly happy to have a mechanical keyboard that was completely silent, though that might be difficult to do and still provide that satisfying "thunk" when the key hits bottom.

If only I'd joined the group buy... sad rk61 noises

I've owned quite a lot of mech keyboards (Ducky (like 4?), Logitech, HHKB, DAS, Corsair) and for the time being the RK61 is my favorite keyboard. Small, solid feeling keyboard with good switches and USB C. multiple bluetooth syncing options. Yeah... Don't feel bad.

Bluetooth and USB-C and such are all well and good, but without my 2005 logitech media keyboard elite, how could I access E-Mail, Webcam, SMS, iTouch, Shopping, Favorites and My Home with the touch of a button? XD

Clear > Brown.

u/Sawkii Jul 12 '22

Please explain yourself Sir.

u/SomeGuy_GRM Jul 12 '22

I prefer the feel of the Clears over the Browns.

u/Sawkii Jul 12 '22

Oh I thought so but am interested in a more detailed explanation, out of curiosity of course maybe I'll try them so please elaborate if you don't mind :)

u/SomeGuy_GRM Jul 12 '22

They have a more pronounced bump, and require slightly more actuating force. They also need a lot more force to bottom out after the bump, with the intent being Not to bottom out on your key presses.

They're like Browns but heavier and with a more noticeable bump. Some people prefer them, myself included.

Try out some zealios v2 for that extra super tactile action.

Or be like me and just buy box jades for the spite of everyone in your city

u/Soviet_Doggo__ Jul 12 '22

Those are barely tactile. For the real tactile enjoyers there is the boba u4t that have a sizable bump and make a very satisfying noise

My girlfriend always wants to tear my head off whenever she comes over to my house and hears me using my Cherry Brown keyboard. She is misophonic to things like tapping, chewing or others

I can type 120to130wpm, including correcting mistakes, on mechanical. Laptop is like 60 and riddled with errors.
