What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
Pbt key caps have a better feel and longevity than the abs most other boards use. Fit and finish is phenomenal. Solid stabilizer mount.
Red switches sound great and the board is solid! The keyboard is decently quiet, and connection was seamless. The clicky volume knob is a nice addition to an already fantastic design.

I’ve had limited positive experiences with linear switches i find they are more often than not a mixed bag of highly varied in tolerances or all too mushy or have an unpleasant spring

That aside the board itself is very quietly built and doesn’t acoustically amplify annoying pitches from the actuation of the switches

There is essentially zero clatter from the key caps meeting the spines nor the stabs which are a newer style of more stable and quieter support rather than the paper clip thin metal bar that older models would have
