Construction & Key Action
The Mechanical switches define how this keyboard feels in use. Switch choice is personal - what feels great to one typist can feel wrong to another, so it's worth knowing what category these fall into before committing. The price range here typically gets you a sturdier frame and PBT keycaps that resist shine over time, which is a meaningful upgrade over budget tier.
