Is Topre Overrated?

Realforce R2 TKL: https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/... (affiliate) Niz Plum: https://geni.us/AXaPR (Amazon) These are not cheap boards by any means. Topre has always been a recommendation to me from people who know I like tactile switches, but are they really worth their hefty price tag? In this video, I compare a Topre board, the Realforce R2, to a Topre-clone board, the Epomaker Niz Plum Atom 68, which is a really cool feature-packed board. Epomaker did send us out the Niz Plum as a review sample for free due to our request. Epomaker did not pay me any monetary compensation for this comparison. They only provided me this keyboard to test. This comparison is solely based on my experience and opinion only. And I paid for the Realforce R2. 0:00 Intro 0:50 Sick edit 1:24 Setting the scene 2:13 What even are Topre switches? And why so expensive? 3:23 What's in the box? Realforce R2 4:21 What's in the box?
