Hi I the ducky one 2 mini Mx browns I’ve had it for about a few months now and I just now noticed that there’s a little spring ping in some keys
it’s not noticeable when I type normally
I can hear it when I press the key slowly and listens closely
so I’m just wondering if this is normal or a defect with the keyboard
Thanks

It's normal in the sense it happens with the larger keys often. It happens even in good quality brands, you can either contact them and hope to get a keyboard that does not ping as much or take apart the keys with the issue and do some mods to the stabilizers. It's a normal thing to do but it usually voids the warranty on the keyboard.

This is a good video to check out on how do work on that

I have never clipped the extra feet off the stabilizers in any of my keyboards but adding the grease and taping the board to prevent the extra sound when the stab hits it did help in every case for me.

If you don't notice it when typing I'd just leave it be...
