Pros

They come packaged in a thin box with each switch given their own space in a tray. They are not lubed, but i'm not even sure i will lube them myself because they sound great already! Housing seems to also have a great tolerance for specifications. Unl...  Read More

Akko cs pianos are slightly heavier than the included rk reds in my royal kludge rk98, with a deeper sound profile, but still quiet enough to not annoy my coworkers. It sounds perfect if you're into thicker, quieter clicks for your keyboards. The defa...  Read More

Performs as expected. Brightens up typing. Very easy to clean with q-tip. I have panda style switches in many of my board so i feel like i could type for days.

Best money ive ever spent on switches


For their price, these make a decent sound, and are decently smooth.


These are a few cents more per switch than their cheapest options but definitely worth the extra cost.

Packaging/appearance


I attribute this to their packaging and the care they take to put it together.


Exactly as expected and came in cool packaging that helps organize the pieces as well


(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


Amazing budget switches, can rival some high end switches with a little bit of lube.


Very smooth switches compared to gateron pro.


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
