Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between mechanical and membrane Keyboards?
Mechanical Keyboards use physical switches for precise, durable feedback with customizable actuation. Membrane Keyboards rely on rubber domes for softer, quieter typing at a lower cost, better for shared spaces.
