Additional modules are also available offering ability to add a TrackPoint, Trackball or Key Cluster module depending on your preference.
Keyboard switch colors explained :
– Blue switches are a great choice for hardcore touch typists since these switches have a highly tactile nature, but they’re the loudest of all so, if you’re in a shared environment, some noise will have to be tolerated..
– Brown switches are also a good choice for typists because they’re tactile, and they are a lot less noisy than Blue switches. Given their internal construction these switches are easier to double-tap, making them preferred by gamers.
– Red switches are primarily meant for gamers. They’re non-tactile, smooth to press, and it’s super-easy to double-tap.
– Black switches are similar to Red switches but stiffer, which makes them less prone to accidental key presses.
– Clear switches are similar to Brown switches but stiffer.
– Green switches are similar to Blue switches but stiffer.
