Majestouch 2 - Blue MX
« on: Tue, 11 September 2012, 18:46:52 »
I already own a 10keyless Majestouch with MX Blue and was very pleased with it.
I just wanted to enlarge the pleasure with a full size keyboard.

This is by no mean a review. It's merely a first impression.

I've read couples of posts here about the MJ2. According to those posts, the feel of the MJ2 was supposed to be pretty much the same as the previous generation. Not sure the guys tried the MJ1 and the MJ2 side by side to say so.

Surprisingly, the MJ2 I got has a very different feel than the older one. It is significantly quieter too and it has much less of a metallic noise. It looks like Diatec found a way to damper the noise.

Conclusion - A great keyboard just got better.

Roger that... Got mine from NCIX.



First time I can buy a nice keyboard locally. All my others had to be imported.

Agreed, and you got MX blue which is the best of all switches ;)

I read the title and thought that the mail man had *dropped* the Filco. Glad to know that it got there in one piece. :D *grumble* USPS *grumble*

I was expecting that as well.

I'm glad you like it! I always regretted selling my blues.

Well that's a matter of taste. The surprise was about getting a different kind of blue :-)
