Switching from the Leopold FC900R PBT kb's doubleshot keycaps (which feel very comfy, no sharp edges, though I've been banging on that keyboard several years)
compared to the Varmillo's I received today. Perhaps I'm forgetting if the Leopold's keycaps' edges were sharp the first few weeks/months? Can't remember.
The Varmilo's keycaps are so uncomfy that I couldn't endure it forever. Anyone specifically know whether PBT's in general are initially sharp-edged the first few days/weeks/months?
Reached out to Varmilo; their initial question is asking where I bought their kb, to verify whether I received the original actual Varmilo keycaps
(FYI, I bought it from mechanicalkeyboards.com).
I'm not presuming I received an accidentally sharp one, a lemon needing replacement, but this is how a replacement would also feel. Is it due to the angle/height of the varmilo vs the Leopold? (not sure if there is any diff in angle/height, just reaching for any explanation). The surprising sharpness is really noticeable, and in a bad way. BTW am banging on their Cherry MX browns on both kb's. Love the 3-lb weight of the Varmilo (vs. Leopold's nevertheless respectable 2.65) lb.
I researched any comments/feedback I could online about the varmilo VA108M, but no mention of sharp edged keys found.
Not sure whether to keep up till return allowed date to bang on them to see whether they soften or it's a known difference to accept or send back.
Am presuming they only changed the keycap legends a bit (rather than changed the material, sought a different supplier, etc.) just for this Mac-specific version of the VA108M
UPDATE: Varmilo support confirmed it's the same material/design/etc. for said Mac version. And they've never heard someone mentioning this issue. What gives? As mentioned, I'm not some pup transitioning from ABS keycaps / membrane / domes, etc.
Will await what Mechanicalkeyboards says and presumed refund and chalking up my fingers being incompatible to all Varmillo keycaps (huh?). Something's not adding up here.
