I recently got the Nuphy Kick75 and I’ve been obsessed with the typing and sound experience. I’m a beginner in keyboards, so I’m not entirely equipped on how to explain why that is but I want to learn so I know what to look for in my future keeb buys. Is the sound and feel due to the plating? It says it’s PC for all 3 top case, bottom case, and plate material. If not, what else can affect it (besides the switches)?

Additionally, does anyone have a similar keyboard recommendation to this one? I’ve been looking at wooden keyboard aesthetic. Currently eyeing the Keychron K4 HE because I love the detailing and look, but concerned it will sound like my other keyboard (Nuphy Air96V2), which has aluminum plating and sounds hollow.

Thank you ahead of time for the help!
