I didn't care for the 1st gen Magic Keyboard, didn't like the key feel, hard to explain why. Maybe the keys had too much wobble for that little travel?

I just tried a friend's 3rd gen Magic Keyboard and really liked it, though.

So now I'm trying to buy a used Magic Keyboard for cheap, and I'm wondering if the 2nd gen and 3rd gen models feel the same in terms of typing.

In other words, is the only difference Lightning vs. USB-C for the connector? That wouldn't bother me. But if the typing feel is different that would be a deal breaker.

Thanks for any info.
