Often described as “smoother” or “softer” than their Cherry counterparts, Gateron SMD MX switches are great for those who want an effortless typing experience with just the right amount of resistance Read More

Great Overall
Recommend lubing the switches for best sounding and feeling but overall love my green switches

Would recommend to a friend.
Best budget switches
I bought Gateron Clear, Yellow, and Green. At 23 cents per switch, sometimes even lower, they are perfect for my need. Each type of switch's actuation force, behaviors, and sound levels work as advertised.

Q&A Highlights:

Do these gateron switches support RGB or have RGB lighting in them?
LEDs are soldered to a PCB. That is how the LEDs get power. SMD LEDs are used with hotswap boards. Some LEDs passthrough the switch, this makes customization hard because the switch and LED would need to be desoldered to install new switches

Some of my favourites
Gateron yellow are my favourite affordable switches. Feel amazing after lubing. I bought Gateron clears to go with my LotR keycaps. Super smooth after lubing and light to type which is what I like.

Great value, heavy greens
Having previously used brown and blue switches, I opted for some inexpensive Gatreon greens. I love the sound and feel of them and the extra force compared to blues is slight but noticably nicer.
