Do the keys wobble?
Not sure what you mean wobble exactly, but yea there is some movement, all keyboards have some.

Some keyboards have stable keys, some not, and I don't like the latter. When you touch the keys you can feel if they move left, right, top, bottom. Some keys move even after they're pressed.
Maybe an example it's better to see what I mean:

yea there is less wiggle than in the video, still some, but I have a keyboard cover I use to not really noticeable.
