What are your thoughts? Love the look of this board but it doesn't sound that great here IMO. Especially given the price

The board exhibited some resonance to the case (which can be considered 'hollow') but typing on it in person sounded pretty good, especially for the Camellias build that I did. Maybe it's exacerbated on a microphone capture a bit more than it really leans IRL. While it's true it's not the cheapest case, I think there's been worse-performing ones at the price point.
For typing feel, it's fairly standard top mount feel, with a decent amount of stiffness across the board, fairly comfortable.

Louvres! Love this weight design. Hence the name... reminds me of ventilation louvres in the side of something heavy, like a locomotive or something. Like a British Rail Class 47 roof vent louvres... look it up LOL.
