Title: Leopold FC660C vs Realforce 87U 45g
Post by: Emospence on Thu, 17 October 2013, 23:02:01

I know the difference on paper, what about differences in feel?

Some say the keys on the FC660C will feel heavier than RF even though they're both rated at 45g, is this true?

The FC660C keys feel lighter than the HHKB to me, I would certainly hope that the Realforce isn't even lighter.

For Realforce, I'm more or less set on 55g. I'm just trying to figure out if it'll be worth getting the Leopold for the office ;)

The leopold, don't think hydra will be bringing in? I'm leaning towards 55g realforce anyways though.
