Right now im using a relatively new lenovo keyboard and im wondering what the difference is between those 3 with the actuation force needed to press the buttons. i know the browns have an actuation force of 55g, but what does the newer lenovo keyboards and the red switches have?

i just want to buy a keyboard with same actuation force as my current keyboard.

Normal keyboards should be around 65-75g
Brown needs as you already said 55g and Reds only need 45g.

Reds are the best ones for gaming purpose.
Browns are hybrid. Typing/gaming.

Browns has bump when pressed half way. reds dont have this when I have tested this on a local shop. I have cherry browns ducky shine keyboard. Reds feels similar to normal keyboards since there is no bumps and click but the advantage is lower actuation force which is not my preference since you can easily press any key if you are try to rest the key on top unlike browns which needs a little more force and more natural to use. Blacks feels like a membrane but has bumps. the bumps indicate also that your input has already registered so you don't have to bottom out the key.
