I believe that it "thocks," from what I understand. It sounds also like it's kinda sandy, if you know what I mean. Not sure how to describe it. But yeah, I love this thing to death already.

Anyone else has one? And if so, which one? Which type?

I got a Nuphy 75 v2, for the record, just yesterday.

depending on whether you like that "sandy" feeling, it's possible to lubricate the switches to give them a smoother feeling.

Lubricate? How?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

here's a tutorial, but the idea is you open the switches up and apply a very small amount of lubricant with a paintbrush to all the friction points inside.
