Niz is really easy to use
I just received my Niz Atom66 wired 35g version today, and using it is much more impressive than I expected. I'm starting to think about collecting the entire Niz series. The keys are incredibly soft and mushy, with very little resistance. It truly feels like pressing down on glutinous rice cake or a pile of snow. The sound is very reminiscent of the "soft snow-crunching" noise you hear in user review videos. However, I feel that the typing noise on this board is quieter than in previous user tests. There's only a faint "snowy" rustle and a slight jelly-like "plop" sound. The sound produced by the keycap hardware is minimal. I asked the customer service from the JD flagship store, and they mentioned that the current products have been improved in terms of sound and feel. Personally, I indeed felt a difference in quality.
The bottoming-out sensation on electrostatic capacitive keyboards is soft and mushy, which is the complete opposite of the mechanical keyboards I've used before. The contrast is incredibly stark. (The previous keyboard I had was the Cherry MS3.0S with blue switches. The "clicky" feel is great for slow typing, but for chatting and heavy typing tasks, the capacitive feels much more comfortable.) I got into the keyboard hobby so quickly, just a week. After looking through various guides, I still believe functionality based on personal use is the most important. As a stock trader, a heavier switch can help me remain calm during trades and prevents accidental presses. However, I use the computer all day, so I need a very comfortable keyboard to reduce hand strain. I also ordered a CMK87 with custom Kaihua gravity blue switches for trying out switch swapping. Using a heavy switch for trading would probably be more satisfying.
I hope to get a Realforce keyboard next, and then I can finally settle down!
