The Ultimate Mechanical Keyboard Catalog

If you're used to typing on the IBM Model M keyboard and you don't want to change anything (including the loud obnoxious clicking), Cherry MX blues...

If you're old and you enjoyed typing on the IBM Model M keyboard as a kid, you'll find the Cherry MX brown (and anything with its tactility) to be ...

It's a good switch for gaming, but that's about it. Not a good experience when typing up a document. If you really cared about gaming though, you...

Decent for gaming, outstanding for typing. I felt a noticeable key bounce while they're wearing in, but they've since mellowed out after a month or...

The sound and the feel will take you back to the 80's. There's a reason why these legendary switches are so sought after!

For gaming they feel good, but lose points for a friend in voice comms asking if I have an anti aircraft gun in my bedroom with me. For typing, I j...

This is quite possibly the closest mechanical switch I could find that simulates the IBM Model M bucking spring keyboard feel, without the noise. ...

Somewhat too noisy, but feels nice. Its real issue is its lifespan: in just 12 months I've had to replace 7 of them on my keyboard. They quickly be...

relatively quiet

All around really good switches, they sound amazing and feel amazing, they're not clicky and feel like butter. Keyboard is well balanced for typing...

Ye

its a blue switch alright

I have a shine 76 with these. it isn't so bad I have mostly gotten used to the one-tap touch feel. I don't understand touch it a little and it will...

I have used this switch extensively for years. I have an RF R2 TKL( 55g ) set up at my home computer at all times. My friends all have keyboards ...

If don't need feedback from your switches and prefer your keyboard to be quiet these are perfect for you. I bought my first mechanical keyboard and...

These are on the Atrix Sniper TKL keyboard and I agree that you can't feel the bump unless you press the key really slow. Basically linear feeling ...

pretty good for almost everything, good at being a tactile switch

wow nice

I type 150wpm in qwerty and 70 in halmak, and these switches are phenomenal for fast typing. The feedback is strong despite the light actuation for...

This switch is just meh

Its ok but to be honest there is much better switches out there and I would really recommend looking into better switches

For games it's ok, fast response but sometimes I have to press a button twice to register. Excellent for typing but sometimes I misstype. Overall...

Perfect for gaming! Good for typing and even better with lube.

really nice for gaming pretty meh for typing in my opinion. I have them in an Anne Pro 2 and I just use it for gaming and leave the typing and prod...

good

best one

This is one of the softest forces your fingertips shall ever experience and it is a disservice to compare to popular MX switches and even the more ...

I mean I use the Gateron clears and had to get used to it because these switches are pretty light, but over all they're like average

If you're used to the IBM Model M and you're looking for gaming switches, the Gateron Yellows are a good fit in my experience as Cherry MX red is w...

No feedback, but a nice silent switch. Spacebar feels great though, or typing would be HORRIBLE. Overall, it's pretty good!

I recommend it to anyone.

I used to believe that Cherry browns were the perfect switches, because they are light and do exactly what they feel they do. Until I worked on Kai...

bad

SUUUUUUUUUPER SENSITIVE. not good for everyday use.

Favorite switch so far. Really regret selling mine.

not very tactile but they are very clicky and very satisfying to type on

The better version of the BOX jade.

I've loved these switches since the first time I tried them, provides a seamless typing experience with satisfying feedback and sound. Works like a...

Lowered my wpm on a das keyboard with these.

Great for those that don't want to do any modding really. They're smooth enough to use stock. However, just remember to Lube + Film at the same tim...

good for gaming, but typing isnt that good. just my personal opinion though

coming from a mx red board, good at gaming and awesome at typing.

These switches allow for actuation point setting, which is the only analog feature that I use, but it's just great. Wooting keyboards have many ad...

epic and awesome

They have a very unique sound to say the least, once they re properly lubed they feel fantastic while typing. They're generally pretty hard to push...

I can type on these faster than on my Cherry or Gateron blue keyboards. These browns also feel better overall.

E

Me personally being a heavy handed person these switches are a perfect medium for me. I’m a osu!mania player so it comes down to 4 - 7 different ...

I added double O rings (1 thicker, 1 medium) to shorten the travel and these are faster, tactile, exactly what I wanted. 10/10 like this.

Honestly, a perfect typing switch. They are a little light for my taste as far as gaming - too much risk of inadvertent actuation if you are the ty...

xd

Not too light or heavy Nice tactile bump and really crispy click.

Not a great typing switch. But, it's insanely smooth. Much, much smoother than the Cherry equivalent.

Been using these switches for about a week now. Ever wondered what the perfect switch is? Well this is it. Loud, satisfying, clicky, tactile. Th...

they are like toned down heavier box jades and they are much better in my opinion but they are just loud

pog!

Outstanding switch. Pretty quiet, but the noise it does make is very pleasant. Super distinct bump combined with lower than average actuation force...

I only use it to game, very light and easy to press, good for my weak hand.

I play osu mania and other games and its pretty good, i like how they feel

Just received the Varmilo full size keyboard with the Daisy switches. This is without question, the absolute best keyboard I have ever had in thir...

Linear switches will generally be better for gaming, however, the tactile event is sharp and near the beginning of the keypress which is really nic...

They suck

Ahhhh

The perfect switches for me! They are great out of the box and even better when lubed.

Rly good (i got it for 2 years now)

Great for gaming, although I prefer lower profile (which are really hard to find). Nice for typing but pretty loud on my GMMK TKL w/ Black Aura V2...

Great switch, a little heavy if you're not used to heavier switches, but feel great, even without being hand-lubed. Great for typing, and just in g...

These switches are the most quiet of any switch I have ever tried. As others have mentioned, they have a slightly mushy feeling bottoming out, but ...

Pretty expensive for rubber domes.

Used on smaller micro keyboards, keyboards can be quite cheap and are a good compromise.

My favorite switch so far

sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesh

Resl good

Had in s tester, they are very similar to speed bronzes. I'm gonna get box jades beacuse I dont mind the noise, but if these or the bronzes were in...

Love the vortex pok3r v2 keyboard. This is the best low profile keyboard I have used so far and the cherry low profile switches feel solid. I no lo...

One of the best switches on the market.

Heavy on the fingers when gaming, perfect at touch when typing. The spring is strong and, after lubing + filming (g203 and 0.3mm), it leaves no sp...

The lack of slightly more "sculpted" caps is the only thing holding them back. They're glorious.

very tactile, smooth and has no pre-trevel before tactile event. In games give an exceptional understanding of the moment the button is triggered. ...

These switches give you silence but does not hinder on the tactility. I like them better than Cherry MX Browns in terms of tactility. Simply an ama...

They're extremely smooth, coming from gateron browns. I like the feel while typing and my typing speed increased. . Weight is a just a bit too heav...

Honestly not good when not lubed. Out of all my switches these sound bad even with a board with double-gasket. With a vanilla GMMK the spring crunc...

They are heavy, but i like the use of them for typing at work on my most popular buttoms that have to be typed multiple times at once (spacebar, en...

I'm excited

One of the nicest switches I've ever used, arguably perfect once you get your own weighting and a bit of lube on them.

cool but kinda noisy

Got a varmilo keyboard on those switches never had a mechanical keyboard. I always loved clicky switches so that was my choice and i loved it

Amazing stock switches, after lubing and filming they're perfect 10's across the board.

Fantastic for typing. Less useful for games that require reflexes. I love just chattering away as I type a million lines a minute!

Great tactility; perfect for typing. A bit too light for gaming, though I'm getting used to it.

yes

the last torchbearer of real (although simplified) alps - comes without the key chatter, fail rate, double bump and high-pitched sound of matias sw...

12 year user of MX Browns (LOL yes, from 2x dasKeyboard, CoolerMaster Master Keys...) onto a Keychron Q6. Day 1 this feels REALLY nice. Buttery ...

best clicky out there

very gud

Best tactile on the market

Not the best switches, not really for gaming to, pretty much made for nothing..

I've been using the tactile Holy Pandas and once I traded them out for the Kailh Box Brown, I will not be going back to the Pandas. The Pandas are...

It’s a really good switch really smood

Not the best but not to bad

is good switch

bad

It is very smooth. if lube right its sound so good and smooth. and the thock sounds very amazing.

These feel like the love child of khaih box black and gateron yellow. For gaming and universal purpose these switches are pretty much perfect for m...

best switch

The most tactile seilent switch. It has not click, just perfection. Is expensive, but worth it.

Really heavy for gaming by my prescriptive, but mostly fits heavy hand typists.

great for minecraft, and only for minecraft. why do these switches only work on minecraft and roblox, but nobody plays roblox so these can only be ...

Its alright

Solid, short throw feel. Noisey without the wobble. Downside is not many caps fit except low profile mx stem caps where the stem is longer than the...

Bad

Not good, no distance

I gotta say, I absolutely love the feel of these switches. They're absolutely wonderful to use for coding with and they're also pretty good for gam...

God-M as they say

i hate then

Overall, it's fine for gaming but it feels resistant sometimes and sometimes the feedback doesn't feel fast enough. For my preference, typing is a ...

I'll probably stick with these for the next 5 years. Great replacement for Cherry Red (too clacky for me), Cherry Red Quiet (too mushy for me), and...

Using it about 1year and its good but not perfect

great keyboard switch perfect sound and typing

Lubed and filmed it is one of my favorite sounding switches. The travel distance weight are good. The weight definitely might be a little bit high ...

worst switch i ever used

hey have all you can ask from a linear switch with a moderate actuation force. On a stiff/heavy plate like stainless steel, typing is really satis...

My favorite switch so far! I type a lot for work, and they have a grat feel, aren't heavy or mushy despite being silent. Office friendly, the only ...

Click may not occur at the actuation point, which is a con, but the switches feel both smooth yet light and crisp. The clicking sounds a bit rattly...

These are possibly the loudest switches I have ever heard. My mom LOVES the clack, but she had to take the keyboard to her home office cause her co...

Scratchy, wobbly, muddy tactile bump

Like a higher quality cherry mx brown.

These have been my daily driver for a year. I've been able to game and type on them without issues, the only set-back is that you can't ad-strafe a...

Try to avoid this switch. It is heavy but not responsive. The quality is really bad. The keycap will move around very badly compare to cherry red.

Has a deep sound profile with a slight clack. With a couple mods such as tape mod or foam mod, this swich will be very poppy

Smooth, newer TTC switches are decent but switches around the same price like JWKs and UHMWPE stem Gaterons blow these out of the water in terms of...

these are the best switches for typing change ny mind. 62G force is perfect maybe not as good for gaming because they not as fast as other switches...
