Is the Matias Clicks option same as Matias Quiet Clicks? I'm new to this Matias world.

ShinyTiffI have the Quiet Pro and they are very tactile. I think the only difference between them is that the clicky ones make an extra clicky sound.

ShinyTiffYes, they are the same. Not sure why they interchange the names. I think Quiet Pro refers to Matias Quiet Pro line of keyboards that uses the Quiet Click switches.

ShinyTiffBut.. in your original question I understood it as if the clicks and quiet clicks are the same... and yep just one is louder than the other.

olijuiceSry to have you confused ;) should've given some more explanation. K, thanks. I thought Clicks were Quiet clicks and ordered those.

ShinyTiffThe "Quiet Clicks" are dampened, tactile switches. The "Click" switches are non-dampened, clicky switches.
The "Quiet Click" switches are dampened internally on both the down-stroke (bottoming-out) and up-stroke (key return). The internal metal leaf provides tactile feedback but does not make a click sound when activated.
The "Click" switches have no dampening, so the down and up strokes sound like regular mechanical switches. The internal metal leaf in "Click" switches provide tactile feedback while also making an audible click noise when activated.
I think it was a marketing mistake of Matias to call them "Quiet Click" instead of "Tactile Dampened".
Hope this helps!
