Side button quality split reviewers: some complained about reach, mushiness, or pre-travel, while others praised the thumb buttons as dependable or exceptional.

Claw grip comfort was generally strong thanks to the low button height, but large-hand users may still feel cramped.

Click noise was acceptable to mixed, ranging from loud in one review to balanced or mellow in others.

Debounce customization received negative evidence from one reviewer, who found the lowest debounce setting caused ghost or slam-click behavior.

Charging convenience was the most common drawback, with quick charging and flexible cables offset by an awkward side port.
