![]() I liked the way the double shot PBT keycaps felt - their slight texture helped keep my fingers from stray too far from the keys. I liked typing on the Apex Pro Mini, but I didn’t love it. If you really want to get into customizing the experience, you can adjust each key’s actuation point individually. You can adjust the actuation from 0.2mm, which is so shallow that a stiff wind will trigger a keypress (seriously - at 0.2mm, I was able to type with some well-aimed blasts of canned air), all the way up to 3.8mm. ![]() The switches’ adjustable actuation doesn’t change how the keys feel, but it does change the overall typing experience. The Apex Pro Mini is nowhere near as loud as a keyboard with clicky switches, such as my current daily driver, the Razer BlackWidow v3 with Razer Green switches, but it’s loud enough and clicky enough that the sound alone nearly made up for the lack of tactile feedback (nearly). ![]() But what I really like are clicky switches. Like many writers, I prefer switches with tactile feedback for typing. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing - I kind of liked the way this keyboard sounded. ![]() Pressing a key is smooth and seamless, with no tactile bump or resistance.Īlthough the switches themselves are silent, typing on this keyboard produces some pretty loud clacking, as well as some slightly hollow-sounding thunks as you bottom out against the aluminum backplate. The Apex Pro Mini is the first keyboard outfitted with the company’s new OmniPoint 2.0 switches, which - like the original OmniPoint switches - have a linear feel. Both the Apex Pro Mini and the Apex Pro Mini Wireless will come in US English, French, German, Japanese, Nordic, and UK English layouts, but the US English layout is the only layout available at launch.
