Title: Flex on Ducky one 2
Post by: tab87vn on Tue, 27 March 2018, 15:02:22
Hello,

I've just purchased a Ducky one 2 board. It's amazing, and the build quality seems solid in general. However, I notice that when I lightly twist the it, or even just press on the bottom left corner, there's some soft noise, probably caused by some flex. I guess it was because the metal plate is moved against the plastic case.

Again, the case is still really solid and I can put really firm keystrokes and have no problem using it. Still, Ducky one is known to have really robust build quality. Do you think this is a QA problem, or has anyone ever experienced the same thing?

Tested with my Leopold and CM masterkeys, they do not have this kind of problem.

Thank you!

I cant help you, but I am curious if you have ever owned a Ducky One, and how the Ducky One 2 compares in build quality.

I have 1 old white Ducky Shine 2 (ISO/Nordic, still workin), some ANSI Ducky Shine 3 and 4, 1 Ducky One RGB YOTG + a pink Ducky One and never had any problems with the k - boards. The build quality are great. Right now I'm usin one of mine Ducky Shine 3 k - boards.
