I like the case to start with TBH.


I’ll say something I’ll say out loud—OptimumTech is NOT a be-all end-all reviewer or rather youtube-tech-influencer; he’s just the only one with high-video-production-quality that even bothers covering the SFFPC space. And has consequently garnered a YT following. He can and does make mistakes. Maybe that is one of these--I don't know, if his review were from Steve at Gamer's Nexus I'd much sooner trust a single review/data-point. Something seems hinky given your internal results and his.


A year or so ago Ali did a high-end capacitive-switch keyboard review (I thinks Leopold)—it completely blew up in his face, as he was clearly talking about things he didn’t understand; got called out on it in comments, and completely scrubbed the content from his channel. That is an extreme example, but I bring it up to show people/methodologies aren’t perfect. I don't bring it up to rub in his face, but to say a one-and-done less-than-stellar-review as cause to re-engineer a product is IMHO a kneejerk reaction.


Why do I say that here, and not on your reddit thread? Because I'd be downvoted into oblivion over there, and that is not a venue for reasoned discussion about such things. Especially when it comes to money and product development.
