Pros & Cons
Pros
The black jelly set is an incredible switch option for beginning keyboard enthusiasts. The switches are pre-lubed and work as if you lubed them yourself. This is an good choice if you're not planning on buying a container of keyboard lube just for 1 k... Read More
As soon as i start typing faster, it becomes noticeably louder. In the video it sounds a little louder but in real life it's way quieter. Perfect if you're into thicker, quieter clicks for your keyboards. I prefer tactile switches and these are amazin... Read More
Very comfortable process and overall nice switches. Very straightforward to install in my gmmk pro. If you're looking into starting your own keyboard builds, this is definitely a great starter silent linear switch!
Cons
These lubed switches have no lube, or maybe trace amounts. The box and switches were heavily damaged. I feel like they could have cut back on the plastic packaging.
Akko switches often pull out with the keycap. This results in a double keystroke when pressing the switch during normal typing, but also manifested as the switch entirely stopping function. Neither of these issues have ever beenmanifested with cherry ... Read More
Highlights
Quality
Sound amazing and good for gaming, i got lighter springs and are very smooth switches
These were for my first ever custom keyboard build and first time buying switches and i love these fairy switches so much!
Cherry browns are by no means a bad or low quality switch, but these pianos blew them out of the water.
I bought the piano v3’s and they sound great and come with zero spring ping, even when they’re stock.
Price
For a budget gaming keyboard, it will not disappoint you.
I am very happy with the price and the feel !
For their price, these make a decent sound, and are decently smooth.
With the other mods i did to this extremely budget buiild, i managed to get a decent little thock out of them, and they're a pl... Read More
Packaging/appearance
I attribute this to their packaging and the care they take to put it together.
I'm not sure why amazon did not package it in their usual little bags, but that's not akko's fault so i'm still giving it 5 sta... Read More
(the outer packaging was all stained and gross like it was rolling around all over.
The last thing to note about this one and actually all of the akko switches is the packaging.
Competitiveness
Very smooth switches compared to gateron pro.
I highly recommend these switches to those who are fans of linear switches, or those looking to try linear switches out.
Unlike the other newer switch offerings by akko, rgb also doesn't get tinted in any color which is also another added bonus if ... Read More
For the price, they're hard to beat, and i haven't found a better modern tactile switch.

They dont need lube at all

I was testing the switches by just pushing the switch button and i got some lube on my fingers

Not enough to be a grievance for me since the switches sound creamy and nothing seems out of place

Overall this is an good choice if youre not planning on buying a container of keyboard lube just for 1 keyboard or looking to purchase lube later

The switches itself look nice but you are not going to see them with the keycaps on
