pro is that they are cheaper speed switches than the competition and do their job
con they feel cheaper than other switches good alternative to fill out a gaming keyboard where there are switches you only use for typing and not gaming.
These switches are the best for gaming at the moment, so they are good in that aspect.
very good latency and actuation point.
They arent what I expected, as I have the ALT keyboard that came with speed silvers, and the housing is Completely different than the ones that came in the board.
The sound is SLIGHTLY off, not by much. but its a great switch over all.
Would recomend.
These are, WITHOUT A DOUBT, Some of the Switches of All Time
As the title suggests, these are indeed switches. They smell and taste and sound like switches. Although, however speedy these switches may be, they have almost no "character" whatsoever. They are fairly quiet and straightforward and, as other reviewers have mentioned, they have a bit of scratchiness to them. I would not purchase again but it was not a bad deal for $15.
Tire your fingers and even after lube don't sound/feel great
Very disappointed in this set of switches. I found my fingers fatigued after just a couple hours of use. They're scratchy without lube and only slightly improved with a generous Krytox lubing. Just skip these, you aren't missing anything other than handful of cash.
Of all the switches I own, this is the set I regret buying the most.
I have lubed them with Krytox to take away the inherent scratch and even then, these switches lack something.... exciting. They don't sound great, they don' t really feel great (especially stock) and they really don't offer anything that Gateron does about two times better. They do not especially feel speedy either.
If you don't have a choice, I guess these are fine...
Initially, the texture of the product felt extremely dry, resembling sandpaper. However, after applying a sufficient amount of lube, it transformed into a remarkably smooth consistency, akin to butter
I like how fast I can type with them; barely have to press them for actuation. I don't like how heavy they are when pressing down on them, despite how fast I can type with them, it gets tiring after a bit. They're scratchy without lube, and after I lubed them, they were really nice and smooth with a tiny bit of texture you can feel/sound while typing. Depends with the build you're going for. I think I would reccomend them for a light low profile keycap. As for sound, they sound a little more dense than the general linear switch, but that's just with regular PBT XDA profile keycaps.
Overall, great for the price.
