It makes the sound of a nicely Clicky keyboard. I absolutely love mine, and I love the sound, but it definitely doesn't sound like a vintage typewriter, especially not a pre-electric one which is what people generally think of now when they think typewriter. The people who say it sounds like a typewriter--I'd hazard a guess that they don't actually know what a real typewriter sounds like. As for sound level, it's not too loud. It's way louder than my whisper soft MacBook Air keyboard, but it's probably about the same loudness as my Logitech keyboard on my desktop HP. Marvelously Clicky. **Q: What kind of switches do these compare to? (Cherry MX brown, blue, red, or other?)** A: The switches are kailh Blue. **Q: Does this work with MAC?** A: The Bluetooth Artisan version works very well with my iMac. It comes with a set of Mac keycaps that you change out according to a layout included in the manual. Then move the selector switch on the back edge to Mac and your all set. My iMac had no trouble recognizing and pairing with the keyboard. It will work like any other dedicated Mac keyboard. **Q: can i connect this to 2 different computers switching between the usb and bluetooth connections?** A: Yes you can switch between 2 different computers, but you would have to keep changing which computer the keyboard is connected to. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by L***N on 18 February 2024* الجودة: الجودة عالية جداً، من مواد ممتازة ومتينة. لوحة المفاتيح ثقيلة شوي، لكن هذا يدل على قوتها ومتانتها. التصميم: التصميم رهيب! كلاسيكي وجميل، يعطي شعور بالرجعية مع لمسة عصرية. زوجي يعشق الكمبيوتر، ويعشق كل شي قديم، فكانت هذه الهدية مثالية له. الإضاءة: الإضاءة خلفية رائعة، وتأتي بثلاثة أوضاع: ثابت، تفاعلي، وتنفس. الراحة: لوحة المفاتيح مريحة جداً للكتابة، حتى لفترات طويلة. تأتي مع حامل قابل للتعديل لضبط زاوية لوحة المفاتيح لتناسب وضعية الكتابة المفضلة لك. العيوب: لا يوجد أي عيوب تذكر. السعر مرتفع شوي، لكن الجودة تستحق السعر. التقييم: ٥/٥ ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by R***U on 13 April 2018* Very well built, Heavy (massive, will *NOT* budge if unless you hit it purposefully) nice to type on. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by B***Y on 13 April 2024* Had this keyboard for years and it's never failed me.
