My old office keyboard (Cherry MY - yes, MY) won't hold a candle to this, so I compare it to a Leopold MX Brown. ++++ The stabilizers are exceptional: factory lubed, no rattling at all, vastly superior to my Leopold. +++ The Iris switch is made for productivity. It is smooth, factory lubed and has a very pronounced tactile bump, so it's easy to type more accurately on it than on MX Brown. ++ The small form factor leaves space for the mouse; everything is within reach (for coding), no need to look down. I don't work with Excel, so I won't need the numpad. ++ It has Delete (for coding) and Insert (for Linux clipboard). ++ Caps and Ctrl functionality can be swapped (convenience). + Backlight and Bluetooth are nice additions over the Leopold, but I don't use these features. 0 The color is beautiful but not my personal favorite. 0 Weird placement for Fn key. 0 Weird placement for Caps indicator. - Although the board is very sturdy, the kickstands don't seem so. I don't use them though. - The Iris switches sound louder and sharper than MX Browns and it is not my favorite. Fortunately the colleagues didn't complain at all. -- While the ABS keycaps are smooth, silky and good quality, they won't come anywhere close to the gritty, rough yet awesome feel of the PBT keycaps on my Leopold. This is the only thing I would change on this board. Shout out to the Geekboards team (especially the person) who sent this board for me. You are awesome! :)
