Leobog Hi75 vs Matias Tactile Pro

“I'm a big fan of Matias switches and anything Alps. I use the Tactile Pro with my Mac mini at my desk and love the Matias switches and the 3 USB ports in the keyboard. So, I bought the Tactile Pro mini for use with my laptop. I love the fact that the keycaps show the additional symbols you can type when you hold down the Option and Shift+Option keys. These designs are pretty old. I hope Matias comes out with new models that have USB-C and are programmable.”

“Board: Leobog Hi75 in beige Switches: Gazzew Black Boba U4 Caps: Sumgsn gradient pink (double-shot PBT, OEM profile) The Leobog feels a lot higher quality than its price would suggest, although opening it is made quite hard by the knob resisting removal and the screws not being the best quality. (And you kind of need to take it apart, as not all switches readily push in from the outside due to the PCB flexing.) Also note that the “beige” colour is actually closer to peach than beige. I’ve seen it described as “milk pink”, which is more accurate. The caps were cheap(ish) at £36, but feel really great. It’s the kind of softness and smoothness you’d get from silicon. Not for everyone, especially not if you prefer texture, but I’m enjoying it! The switches, OMG, wow! These are my first Boba silent tactiles, and I don’t think I’ll ever need another switch. Such a pleasure to type on! Great feeling compared to silent linears. (I fully understand people who complain about “mushy” feeling now!) So quiet too! Overall, I’m really enjoying this build, although the quiet is simultaneously a blessing and a downside, as I think the case has great potential for sound.”
