LTCJerrzi Tactile Switches for Mechanical Keyboard DIY - 5 Pin 40gf Tactile Switches Plate Mounted Compatible for MX Mechanical Keyboard (70PCS)

I just bought a Keychron Q6 Max keyboard which came with Gateron Jupiter Brown (tactile) switches and side printed (transmissive) keycaps. I just swapped in these LTC Jerrzi (clear) Tactile switches, and am very impressed. I prefer the LTC to the Gateron in three ways:- they have much less keycap wobble- their clear bodies provide better RGB distribution- the tactile feedback is smoother and front loaded, compared to the Gateron, which are mid loaded.The Keychron Q6 is beast of a mechanical keyboard, and these switches make it just about perfect.BTW the LTC product description says these have a "built-in north-facing LED slot", which is a confusing thing to state, as the LED slot will work perfectly on both north facing and south facing keyboards (such as the Q6. )

I really like these switches. They feel very sturdy, they make good click sounds, and they are not too heavy. My fingers so not get tired with these, but they still are satisfying to use. They improve my typing by a large amount over using standard linear keys or even Cherry MX Blues.

These are great switches and at their price point are nearly unbeatable if you're looking for a tactile to run daily. Don't be fooled by the 50-gram tactile force, the tactility on these is VERY pronounced; it is a deep, rounded bump that transfers smoothly into the fingertips. For sound, these are fairly thocky but your mileage may vary.How these stack against other tactiles and clickies I've tried (I did not lube the Jerrzis or any other switch mentioned below):- Gateron Baby Kangaroo v2: The Baby Kangaroo has significantly less tactility overall compared to these. However, they have a softer bottom-out due to their dual-stage spring, which aids in a more comfortable typing feel. Compared to these Jerrzi Tactiles, they feel nearly linear.- Akko Cream Blue Pro v3: The tactility is more comparable on these than on the Kangaroos, but the Cream Blues have a harsher bottom out than the Jerrzis and a sharper, less rounded bump overall. Once you pass the tactile bump of the Cream Blues, it feels like the switch completely collapses. The Jerrzis provide a more gradual transition which I greatly prefer.- Akko Lavender Pro v3: These are the least tactile of all the switches I've tried. Compared to the Jerrzis, they feel slightly empty and are far too light for comfortable typing. I switched from the Jerrzis to these to experiment and found that I made significantly more typing errors.- Kailh Box Jades: The tactility of clickies are completely different so a comparison is difficult, but I prefer the Jerrzis over the Jades. I find that the lighter weight and rounded tactility translate to a better typing experience over a long period of time. This is purely personal preference and both are great switches for typists.For roughly 15-20 dollars for 70 switches, these are absolutely worth trying. I second the rest of the positive reviews for this switch.

So I have the Matcha-themed keycaps and use them with these switches, even though I know no one would ever check to see if they match (It's satisfying to me though).These are possibly the loudest switches I own, and I absolutely love them! They feel great and since I'm a heavy handed typer, I really like the feeling I get with each press. My only issue seems to be that I hit my Shift and Caps Lock buttons a little too softly so sometimes I miss-press those keys, but otherwise these switches are amazing and i use them for my main computer.If you like loud switches and are a heavier typer, these might fulfill your satisfaction for clicky switches!

I've tried dozens of tactile switches, and this is easily one of the best. It has a well-defined tactile bump, with otherwise smooth travel. Most tactiles have a mushy and/or crunchy feel, but these have a nice clean pop.The provided force curve is pretty accurate: Round bump, smooth downstroke, and a gentle bump on the upstroke. Unlike some tactiles with similar weighting, this switch doesn't feel like it nearly seizes on the upstroke. Side note: Someone else said their switches got stuck, so maybe I just got lucky.At first, keystrokes feel a little scratchy, but it completely smooths out after being broken in.Durability is excellent so far: After 3 months of daily use (gaming, programming, writing, everything in between), I haven't noticed any chattering or failed actuations. If they happened, they were rare enough that they felt like user error.The clamps holding the upper housing are a little narrow, so opening them is kind of annoying.Quality control is good. All of the switches feel consistent out of the box, with only minor variation. The only flaw in the whole batch was a broken stem dust cover.
