Build Quality and Typing Experience

Aluminum top and bottom cases combined with a plastic middle frame balance durability and weight.
Gasket mount design reduces internal resonance and noise, resulting in a softer, bouncier typing feel and crisper sound.
PCB flex cut enhances shock absorption, contributing to a cushioned keypress experience.
Four-layer noise reduction pads minimize cavity sound, improving acoustic clarity during typing.
