If comparing switch noise you really need to test the switches in the same spot on the keyboard. Depending on where the switch is installed on the board, the sound is going to be drastically different even with the same switch.

I could almost flip this list upside down and it would be for me! So much personal preference with switches, yet we are all so obsessed with the comparisons.

I got the Boba U4 over the Zilents for a silent work office keyboard per your suggestion when I had asked before. They are most definitely worth the S tier ranking. The keyboard itself is a Meko Blink 60%; which isn't bad, but is plate mount and doesn't support standard housings. I have 2 other keyboards for home use. A Womier K87 TKL with lubed Glorious Pandas, and a Miya Panda Pro with Cherry MX Clears. The Pandas are super nice to type on. The Cherry MX Clears can definitely get fatiguing after a while.

Great video, Betty. I've finally given in and I'm going to see what the linear switch hype is all about. So, here I am, purposely watching my first video about tactile switches with the intent to buy. I really like the feel of the Kailh Box Crystal Navy switches, so I'm basically hoping to find something similar without the click. Heavy, with a noticeable bump. With that being said...... It's kind of sad that we live in a world that you have to make a disclaimer stating the obvious at the beginning of videos to hopefully ward off any comment trolls whose opinion may be different from yours.

Moyu Blacks are my daily driver, and paired with an FR4 plate, they just hit REAL different compared to most other switches imo.

Mechs on Deck actually used Moyu Black stems in an all nylon housing to make Anubis switches, which are probably some of the deepest switches on the market right now.

for me blueberries are a A, im a light typer and with a spring swap to a slightly lighter one its much better unlubed, VERY similar to creams as they have the same housing but the only difference is them having a blue tactile stem, all same material though and it becomes smoother over time keeping the tactility, i also used them to make my very own switch(aquaberry) which is the aqua king mixed with the blueberry, can be used for cremerons, they're the perfect switch for frankenswitching imo

I currently daily drive Tecsee Sapphires and they’re pretty nice. I spring lubed them as well as the housing. It’s better lubed. I can still go for heavier ones or maybe spring swap these but I’m pretty much content with these switches since I’m comfortable typing with them. There’s a switch that I’m eyeing on though which is the Tecware Pearl Salmon. I’ve heard it’s a pretty nice tactile switch. I’m also looking at Jelly Purples from Akko which is an updated Lavender Purple and a lot of people love Lavender Purples so that’s a promising switch I think.

@im_Spade_

You still using the Sapphires? The only thing keeping me from pulling the trigger on them is they seem a little rounder/the tactile bump is longer than say the U4Ts. They sound incredible though...I'm torn between the Sapphires, U4Ts, and Durock T1s/Eberglide Oreos

Neapolitan ice creams are so good, extremely tactile, thocky, good spring weight for both heavy and light lovers, not too expensive, just a very versatile switch. Highly recommend

Just a follow up on my tactile experience. I like them, but I ended up with a bad experience with the Boba U4T 68g switches. I figured why not just go with the "thock king" of the tactile switches. After about 2 months I started getting a lot of key chatter that was getting progressively worse. Multiple registers with a single tap. No register with a single, usually more taps. I swapped out the worst of them with the handful of extras I had and they even started doing the same thing while the other switches were getting worse yet. Probably at least 10, maybe 15 of the switches were pretty consistently just bad. I did a bit of research and found that it was not just me having the issue and the person that makes them or whatever was being pretty "it can't be my switches, it has to be you" about it even though there were several people saying the same thing. I hadn't taken them apart or anything since I bought the pre-lubed. So, I'm going to give a different switch a try and hopefully I get better results. For now, I'm back to my Kailh Box Jades (don't cringe )with no chatter whatsoever. #ClickySwitchesMatter 🤣🤣🤣

Curious what you think about the Mint Chocolate Chip POM switches, which are smooth with a sharp tactile bump, or my personal favorite tactiles, the Dark Amber T1 from CannonKeys…?

My first tactile is Fantasy Virus. They are quite good, I think the Virus can go to B tier in this video. But after that, I saw your video and currently, I have full 80% keyboard with Neapolitan. That's the whole new level. Same for the Dark Jade (Moyu Black). I use them for stab with Neapolitan spring. Sooo good. I'm gonna try them with TX spring to see how it sounds. Thank you for helping me finding my favorite tactiles.

You need to try JWK white jades. It's basically the same as the everglide dark jade, but deeper and generally better.

Herr is a suggestion, rent a silent room, you know the soundproof with spikes on the walls where you can hear your heartbeat. Now that is the perfect place to test sound.

I really do love Tactiles! My first keyboard was Cherry MX brown when mechanical keyboard were new! Still using it from the day I bought it! I used to love it a lot, but by time I hear bad reviews I started to lose interest in them, by time I started to feel they are really bad as a tactile switch. Although it is a nice switch not going to lie. Now building my first keyboard bought everything, waiting for the keyboards to go stock to buy them! Was planning to go with KBDFANS ODIN V2 but they removed the LED and it got better with flex cuts, but can’t sacrifice LED. Now deciding to get AKKO MOD 007 I bought drop Panda and I feel guilty, because when I read it is Panda and it looks so good, I prefer natural color switches so my LED doesn’t turn something weird and I do like if the switch is shin through. In hope I can find original holy panda stems to replace them with the drop panda.

Hi Betty, I was planning on making a custom keyboard but I don’t know where to start! Do you have any good parts I can buy off of Amazon for about $130?

Blueberries and Jelly Blues having two bumps could be an interesting methodology for adding tactility to the various optical or magnetic switches that have multiple 'actuation' points. With a better design and light finesse, multiple actuation points could become a lot more consistent compared to just fully finessing a full-range linear to different depths. By comparison, the only other solution to this that I can think of is a multi-rate spring, where it gets noticeably heavier beyond certain points; almost between a tactile and a linear, you don't get a sharp bump with a drop in force, but you also don't get the linearity of a single-rate spring, basically tactility via spring force alone- though looking at the components of the Jelly Blues, they look to be using a dual-rate spring. Problem is, for these kind of switches, it somewhat locks you into certain hard points, rather than having the adjustable actuation points within the range of the switch; changing the otherwise analog nature, especially on full-range magnetics, to a digital trinary or quaternary by feel.

Not sure if I missed it but kailh pro purples are a great budget option in my opinion

Lol that all the tactiles I use (box royals, royal trues and halo trues) are in F tier. Obviously this all just personal preference. Love the vid!

i got the tactile sample pack from cannonkeys and i love he anubis switches and the ttc bluish whites. great video!

I used Moyu blacks as a daily driver for 6 months ❤️ but they’re definitely NOT for use when there are others in the room 😂

I just got some Corsa switches from Bolsa and Gateron Sol Dark switches from Thockeys and they feel great. The Corsa are light tactile and the Sol Dark have a heavy bump and it feels good. I am getting Azure Dragons soon and the will be going in my first alu build. I love tactile switches

I just love how usable naevys are and I like the sound a lot after lubing even though they're pretty light. They're probably my preferred light tactile out of the ones I've tried.

Considering the price and how difficult it is to get switches in some parts of the world, I'm really happy with my glorious pandas, I cant find any of the B tier and above here (except for the pandas). Although I came from cherry mx browns (and before that razer green(blues)) so it's night and day. No fake tactile mush any more!

Just got the Boba U4T because of this video. Thank you for the recommendation!

In regards to the Purple Pandas and the Blue Velvet Tactiles, I'm pretty sure they're just the same switches, but recolored. There might be small miniscule differences in regards to stem design, but overall, material and stock spring are the same. I currently have Blue Velvets cuz they were in stock at the time and I like their color more. Blue Velvets are currently sold out and Dangkeebs have told me they plan on bringing them back around Q3, so I recommend getting Purple Pandas for the time being. I personally put them in A Tier. Solid housings where you don't need to film, and unlubed, so you can lube them yourself in anyway you so choose. The 68g spring is where I do think it can be divisive. Since my finger strength isn't super strong, I switched them out with TX 57g Long Springs, and bagged lubed with Super Lube Oil. Goes from a medium tactile to a light-medium tactile, and I quite enjoy them now. If you have the fingers for them though, I think the 68g stock spring is fine. In regards to other tactile switches I'm interested in trying: Loobed Cotton Candies, Bolsa Supply Corsa, KTT Onyx, KTT Mallow, Ajazz Diced Banana, and Ajazz Diced Kiwi.

Oh nice, that's a good list too!

29:37 unexpected Guilty Gear Edit: Betty, this got me thinking. have you ever tried anything related to custom arcade sticks? I feel like there are some similarities between those and keebs ss enthusiast hobbies; plus there are some customizable arcade buttons that work with mechanical keyboard switches and the entire concept of lunchboxes

I've recently fallen for either Kailh Speed Coppers or Kailh Box Silent Browns. I hope you review these in this video! Will see!!

Now i want the Linear review POGGG!!!!

Moyu black is my favorite tactile by far so smooth and clacky sounding I don’t mind the loudness ofc because I’m a clicky enjoyer

As a moyu black user, a plastic cased keyboard could make the sound a bit more bassy, KBD67 lite is my choice and is my current daily driver

This makes me think of the video you made when you purchased all those unusual switches (fried egg, azure dragons). Are you still gonna do a video comparing those?

I was looking forward to the recap at the end! Bummer!

My t1s from primekb with 55g springs and very lightly lubed are my daily driver, freaking love them.

NEXT LINEAR❗❗ waiting for it

I've got Blueberries on my daily user. I do think they're too heavy, but I type like I'm still using an IMB Selectric. My next build (tomorrow) has purple pandas, and I'll upgrade the spring a bit, once I've played with them awhile and figure out what they like.

would love if you put the link to the tier list so that we can download it and use it when deciding on switches :)

Thanks =] I think I will try tactiles at work~

I built a keyboard with TECSEE Purple Pandas, I’ve never used a tactile beyond a Cherry MX Brown so I was surprised by how much more tactile and louder they were. TECSEE just cannot miss.

Did you lube them or use stock? Lubing really help increase smoothness and deep sound.

Thanks for all the info! This may be just what I need to find my ideal switch. So far, the best options appear to be TTC Silent Bluish White and Boba U4. I like my non-silent TTC Bluish White board, but it could stand to be quieter, a bit softer/mushier (I'm weird), and push back a little harder on the upstroke. So I think I'll try Boba U4 next. Basically I'm looking for something which feels like a good scissor switch or rubber dome, but in hotswap MX form. I also like my Hako True Whitefox. The extra-mushy bottom feels like I'm typing on clouds, and it lifts my fingers effortlessly after each stroke. It's where I get my highest wpm, but it makes my pinky fingers tired, and the tactile bump is pretty meh. I like it way more than a traditional blue or brown style switch though... can't stand the response curve on those; feels like using a paper hole puncher which gets stuck both ways on each stroke.

@@JimmyTulip1 Definitely check out the force curve graphs on any switches you want to try. A scissor switch has a distinct curve shape, and it's a very different shape than a blue or brown switch. So if you want something more scissory, the options are switches like: Boba U4 / U4T, Durock T1, Durock Shrimp, TTC Bluish White, Holy Panda, Glorious Panda, etc.

I thought I wanted something quiet and membrane-y after coming off a logitech K800 w/ thin scissor keycaps...turns out I don't. But for that reason I tried the U4s and yep, they're very tactile and very quiet/soft, a bit more rubber dome-y. You'd probably like them.

I have TTS Bluish white silents, theyre pretty good. What i hate about them, is they sound and feel scratchy, and the ping is pretty noticeable. Lubing helps a bit, but you lose that blubble-wrap type of feel and it doesnt completely remove other issues. Im currently looking for something else that would feel and sound similar, maybe with harder bump, but no pings and scratches

please do a linear switch one, would be awsome.

I have TTC Bluish White Silents, and i have mixed feelings about them. Unlubed the bump is amazing, feels like bubble wrap. But you have to lube them because the scratchiness and ping is atrocious. So after lubing you lose some of the amazing bump, but it still doesnt completely remove the issues. It would be a perfect switch if not for ping and scratchiness, it feels and sounds amazing, but its driving me nuts. Wish i could find something similar, but better. From what i've seen and heard online, pandas and even U4T's dont even come close to how good the TTC's are

I put Jelly Blue above the Lavender Purple... Slightly. I liked the "double bump" that really just feels like a more significant bump. Also stock unlubed it's quite usable. Seems to be a clackier switch though, so may be a con for some.

^^ i hated sponge cs at first(same at jelly blue) but when i got used to it it feels not bad.

You forgot the Kailh Speed Copper. I use them in my Epomaker GK96S build.

I have the durock mediums, I like them and I chose them over the everglide purples after watching some reviews of the tactile bump.

I always thought the Neapolitans were really good, but the reason I don't like them as much is because I've found the housings to be much more fragile than most switches that I've handled. I've swapped it only once and I've broken the tabs on a couple of them even after I started being very careful with them.

I think that Kailh box browns are quite a lot more tactile than Gateron or Cherry browns. And they have no pre-travel, which I prefer. Especially box silent browns. They have a very sharp tactility. But I don't like their return force curve. It feels like they don't easily want to pop back up. It reminds me of rubber domes.

I daily drove the Box Browns for a few months before roughly half of the switches on my board turned clicky and inconsistent. Which is a shame since I liked the tactile characteristics a lot.

@@tunglamduong3000 Yeahh, I really like my box silent browns, even though they have practically become clicky. It's a muted click that I have come to enjoy.

Which of these have low profile versions besides Otemu Browns? Not sure I can go back to standard height switches after having gotten used to "reduced travel" mechanical switches.

I love the sounds of the holy pandas! It's lucky you have one!

i actually made a frankenstein switch that consists of a tactile switch's stem (i used gat browns) and the housings and spring of razer greens and the result is a switch that is actually really tactile but not clicky because greens use the stem as a click bar

I feel attacked about the NK Blueberries lol but to each their own 😂. I loved them so much I bought a second set of 110 and swapped them to 67g springs and lubed it. Gonna be possibly using them in my QK100

Can you do this video for linear switches? Also what is the best budget oriented tactile and linear switch? Do people like Akko switches?

I do like the Silent Switches like Silent brown and red from Gatreon. I really liked the Zealios v2 and I was thinking to buy the Zilents!

I'm using MX Clears and they're great! Now I want MX Grey.

My first mechanical keyboard I got a Corsair Vengeance with Cherry MX Browns. After a few years I decided to look into different switches that had a bit more weight and tactility in them and looked up the spec sheet for the Browns and the rest of the Cherry MX lineup and decided I wanted the Cherry MX Clears. I eventually got a Ducky One 2 loaded with Cherry MX Clears and I'd rate them a step above the Browns personally. So I was disheartened to see you rate the Clears so low :( But hey at the end of the day this is a very subjective thing so it doesn't bother me that much I guess. After owning the Clears for about a year or so now, I'm looking to move to clicky tactile switches. I'm a heavy handed typer so I'm currently looking at getting either the Kaihl BOX Navy or Jade. And I'm not rich so I just got myself a GMMK to load with whatever switch I decide to end up getting.

Right? My thoughts exactly. I'm in the same boat as you. Bought a Ducky Zero with Cherry MX Browns like, 10 years ago I think. And then I swapped into different switches, tried linear with a corsair k63 with cherry red, and then another corsair with silver speed. Didn't like them both, actually, I hated them I do not know why people love linear, but hey, that's subjective. Now I decided to build my own keyboard, but I'm in the middle of the process since some of the parts I want are out of stock atm. So I use a Varmilo Minilo with MK Holy Llama (and sometimes with MX Clears) as my main drive. So, I feel you, clears are not for everyone.
