Pros & Cons

Pros

Nailed it on this one boys. They solve the problems i have with the cs crystals.

Bright but still bassy, smooth linearity with a distinct bottom out feeling that can only be described as solid despite any other plate flex. They have a smooth feeling press and a noticeable but still smooth and subtle bump at the end of the travel.

They are slightly higher pitched that gateron milky yellows. They are definitely more clacky (high pitched) than thocky (low pitch) so if you're concerned about acoustics, those are my impressions.

Cons

These lubed switches have no lube, or maybe trace amounts? These switches also sound horrible. Overall, very disappointed with these switches. They aren't that great of a switch.

Quality

At only 20 dollars for a pack, these switches are an excellent value for the quality you receive.

Can't go wrong with the matcha greens!

In my keychron v3, these switches sound very marbly.

Not bad experiences mind you, but the variation has me very confused.

Price

They sound nice and the price for them makes it all so worth it compared to other akko options.

I hope you guys don’t let the price set the level of quality if you do your missing out.

They feel really premium for their price.

Packaging/appearance

Switch packaging was perfect, no bent or dead switches, all with consistent lubing (resistance/sound when pressing pre installation).

I also appreciate the high quality packaging, each switch has its own little holder.

I did not lube or mod these, installed them right out of the box.

Two were black boxes with tuck in hinged lids, one having bare cardboard inside and the other having colored cardboard.

Competitiveness

I nodded my red dragon k630 board with them, and needed a 3pin switch that would still produce a creamy sound i liked.

Very solid budget switches that will fit into outemu hotswap sockets, to improve some of the budget hotswap boards that come wi... Read More

I just go into custome keyboards and bought a cheap one to tinker with.

And it was comparable to gateron pro reds.
