Pros & Cons

Pros

I'm new to the mk scene (a little over a month into this) and here's my review. It looks great. The spacers and apc are interesting.

Quiet, usable keyboard for typing. The keyboard is already one of the quietest i have used. The silenced 'thock' sound is unmistakable.

I am one of the world's fastest typists. I'm not really a keyboard snob, but have been using mech keyboards for several years now.

This is better than the typical 2 key rollover that most keyboards has. The combination of tactility and smoothness is something you can't get with cherry and clones. The other item it comes with is a keycap puller.

The topre realforces r2 is an androgynous keyboard with a compact form factor. For the fellow keyboard generalist willing to drop a pretty penny on this (already out of stock) collector's item, there's no reason not to buy it.



Cons

There is so much dampening it feels like you lose the tactility. It advertises the bounce; there is none when it comes to the usual topre feedback.

Build quality is top notch probably one of the best built boards i have ever seen and the rubber feet are super grippy so it ke...  Read More


So far, the realforce has lived up to its name and the typing experience has been amazing, it's pretty silent and the quality o...  Read More


But they really need to improve their product quality cuz when i pay 350 for a damn keyboard i wanna pay for the quality, not the novelty.


I bought this one and the non-limited version to make a comparison, but had to return this one because it came with a quality i...  Read More

Price


The price is worth it, as this is my forever board—ie.


If the price doesn't bother you, definitely get it.


However, i really cannot justify the price tag on this thing.


First, the price is pretty high for a keyboard.

Packaging/appearance


The thicker the mat, the even quieter the bottoming out of the topre switch will be.


The box also contains two rubber mats in different thicknesses that can be installed on the plate by first removing the keycaps.


The magnanimity radiated from the packaging as i slowly opened the realforce box, i immediately smelled the whiff of freedom, t...  Read More


This would be a 60% fully programmable model built like the rf, with topre switches mounted in a steel plate instead of case-mo...  Read More

Competitiveness


The zilents are perhaps even quieter than the silenced topre switches in the rf, but the rf is definitely more elegant and refined.


I use this board for work because of the f1-12 and arrow keys, and really there's no competition.


This special edition of the topre realforce r2 line of keyboards does not possess nkro.


That is because topre switches are non-contact based.

    Ive used this for 1 year here is my review


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    However it is not something to be over analyzed


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The best comparison ive heard is what you imagine bouncing a pencil eraser on a board feels like


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Of course if you bounce an actual pencil eraser on a board it will not feel anything like it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It mostly has to do with the sound i think the nonsilenced version has a more satisfying sound and maybe feels different


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    If you enjoy typing sound and it is acceptable in your environment i would consider getting the nonsilenced version instead


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The board looks great with perfect font and grey color but the upper right plasticcoated carbon fiber square is something i could do without


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I do not factor in the value for money aspect for my overall rating but it should go without saying that this is overpriced considering other things you could buy with 350 and not worth the investment for most people unless you type all day like me
