How its switch registers

Lenovo Legion K500 RGB ships with Cherry MX, rated linear by this database. The stem slides straight down until its nib touches the leaf and closes the circuit. Identical from the first gram to the bottom — nothing pushes back to tell you the key fired.

Drawn distances are the norm for this switch family, not a measurement of this keyboard. The animation is the same diagram the app uses.

Sound

On the sound model used across this site it reads as poppy. That is a character derived from its mount, case weight, switch feel and noise rating — it is not a recording of this keyboard.
