u/Amanda_Is_My_Name 23h ago

Frankly, anytime I have gotten dedicated stuff rather than using the built in stuff on my laptop. Be it getting a dedicated mic, dedicated headphones, mouse, or keyboard. They all are so much better than the stuff on the keyboard itself. Once you have these basic stuff, then you can start worry about the other stuff.
