So, I've had two of these keyboards so far from Amazon and both have had the exact same problem: that being whenever a key is spammed lightly, the keyboard acts as if you are holding the key down. It starts off fine and then pauses and spams the key like it's being held down by your finger.
A video showing what I mean: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kxZt4MpXYVo
That's what happened when I was spamming the 2 key on my keyboard.
I'm getting a refund for this from Amazon due to receiving two with the same issue.
Although, since I am new to mechanical keyboards, I've no idea if this is just something mechanical keyboards do, or if it's an actual fault (bad batch) with the keyboards. I cannot find anything regarding this issue online which makes me believe maybe it's not a fault and is just how they are?
The keyboards were using the Cherry MX Red switches.
Should I try buying the same keyboard from another place to see if the same issue pops up? Or should I just get an entirely new keyboard? I am not sure.
EDIT: It did this on multiple computer systems which rules out a PC-specific issue.
