These are still arguably my go-to budget switches if you want a slightly deeper sound and they are a great weight. I put these in any board I don't have a clear vision for in terms of keycaps and switches. I do also really like the Gateron Smoothie switches which come in a little more expensive, but are also another great budget option if you're looking for a slightly louder, clackier switch.
For the price, you really can't go wrong with these, and they're cheap enough where you can be sure to have extras on-hand in case you need them.
The milky yellows are some of the best switches for the price. They are very smooth out of the box and the sound great. As with most factory lubed switches, redoing it yourself will make them even better, but they are still great without this extra step.
One thing to mention, it was a little hard for me to pull out the switch after installing. Maybe because it's 5 pin, so be careful. Other than that, one of my favorites in the collection.
Gateron Yellow switches of all varieties remain a favorite switch of mine, even with the introduction of newer and newer switches. Gateron continues to iterate on this beloved switch and they are great to use right out of the box and at a great price. For me, the actuation force and sound profile are wonderful and offer a very nice typing feel.
I absolutely love these switches. I ended up lubing them myself, but they sounds and feel okay right out of the box, if you haven’t the time or energy to lube them yourself.
I'm not personally a fan of linear switches, but I will say the smoothness of the milky yellow switch is great flavor of the linear family. I can see why they are a fan favorite....maybe for my banana hands I wish the actuation was a bit heavier but overall the typing experience is great!
