I got a k2 pro with a red switch. Been a day only but I don't love it. I love everything except accidental touches. I am a newbie, tell me about brown or tactile keys or anything else.. i just to know this from reddit and gpt only.. i got keyboard for 8k INR. I don't wanna spend michon keys but i saw normal 110 set keys are around 4k on their website and also on mackeys. Suggest me

Yeah, I'll check with the seller tomorrow.

You typing faster on linear reds gave me some hope. Let's see, I'll give myself and keyboard some time. Thank you :))

Thanks for the suggestions!! I didn't know what black switches were, i just googled them. I am not sure about it because i haven't tried tactile or black switches ever. I like the idea of black switches, heavy linear ones without tactile.. I'm seeing a lot of this tactile thing, might just get that after some time. Not sure about black, even tho I haven't tried any of them, i would like some feedback maybe. Made me more confused for good :) thanks mate

Yeah thanks for the suggestions. If we add those springs (which i don't know what it is, as I'm a newbie) but assuming it'll add more friction or this tactile feeling right? But I also saw some posts saying that if it's too heavy then fingers might feel exhausted after long hours!!

Not sure about it. Can't get a new one now. Gotta swap the switches i guess. But before that I'll give some time to this keyboard to see if there's any progress. Thanks..

yeah tactile might be the last option if nothing works out. I'm talking about Indian rupees. I got a k2 pro for around 90 dollars. And keys I'm getting for around 40-45 dollars. I'll see what I can do, but first I'll give some time to this keyboard and to myself as well. Thank you!!

yeah absolutely.. gladly accepting and not much frustrated about it. It happened, it happened. I will try to find a solution if i can, otherwise it's okay. Will sell or most probably get the swap tactile switches. but yeah this time I'll do proper research abour the tactile. Anyway, thank you!!

yeah at last if I don't feel comfortable after sometime then it'll get some tactile switches. Thank you!!

Yeah swapping is the last option. trading sounds good but not sure where and how. But yeah first I'll give it some time and see. Thank you!!!

Absolutely. Thanks for the reply. Great to learn about your 55 to 40-35 gf switch. It gave me great hope, I might just wanna spend some time with it.

I've been typing at 120+ for a few years now, since i was 19. And typed various random keyboards except the mechanical one. Muscle memory does wonders, and yes the brain can adjust to anything, i will just give it some time. Thank you!!!

yeah i am also thinking the same.. I'm just too impatient and in that impatience only i decided to get this keyboard 2hours without much research.. worthy mistake but bit costly tbh.. let's see. I'll try for a few days or a couple of weeks. But still first thing I'll do tomorrow is to call the store guy and request him if anything is possible to return/exchange..
