For the time these were released, they were decent to good switches. They were smooth enough, though made better with lube. However nowadays, there are plenty of budget switches with tighter tolerances and better factory lube.
It's quite an old design now. Under you like the colours, just buy more modern switches
There's nothing special about these. Just outdated tech (doesn't mean that it isn't good), but modern switches with superior materials and tooling would be a better investment.
With a decent amount of work, these switches can be nice and thocky, but definitely not what I expected. After being Lubed, filmed, and spring swapped, I finally achieved what I was looking for. They are very scratchy stock and I applied a ton of lube to get them to a level I enjoy. They're a lighter switch as well, definitely around 50g for actuation.
As always (generally), remember to lube your switches for maximum enjoyment. Scratchy and pingy out of the box. Smooth, silky, and light after lubing. These switches have a more muted clack (versus CJs for example) and feel light and airy to type on. There is some slight fitment lash, so filming these switches (along with lubing) is recommended.
The feel alright, very smooth, but my issue comes from the housing quality. I'm not sure if I got a bad batch, but every time I tried to pull them out of my OLKB, they top housing would rip apart. This issue was consistent with my Q0. I would only recommend this product if you've tried them out before and you're not going to be removing them with a switch puller. Specifically an IC extractor style switch puller.
The feel is extremely smooth, but the sound is lacking
It's an incredibly smooth linear, but it sounds very scratchy. I used it in an ID67 build and it served me well, but I ended up swapping them out for something better. If you don't care much about the sound and prefer the feel, these feel extremely smooth when lubed, so I would definitely recommend them.
