Nice switches
Fairly new to modding keyboards. Had some clicky blue switches that were getting annoying at night for my other half and friends on voice.Decided to go complete opposite and so glad I got these. They are really quiet and feel great. They dont have that tactile bump and have a nice travel distance. Was easy enough to swap the switches over. I did bend a pin on the first switch I tried but I think that was down to me ratjer than the switches. All other switches went in just fine.The only issue I noticed was when removing the key cap it also pulled the switch from the board a couple of times. However it popped right back in and considering I’ll probably do that irregularly its bot really a big deal.

Eye catching tactile switch
The first thing to note about these switches is the excellent packaging (in common with all Akko CS switches). This doesn’t just look nice, it serves the purpose of making sure your switches reach you without bent pins, a really handy benefit for switches.These switches are decently tactile, it is a very crisp tactile event near the top of the keypress and this means its very unlikely you are going to accidentally press the switch and get actuation. They feel good out of the box, and both my wife and I have used them on a board to work with and they sound and feel decent. I have heard others have lubed these and they take lube well so that is something I am considering for the future. If you listen carefully to the switch you can hear some ping from the switch, which if you mount on certain boards will be accentuated, but it isn’t particularly loud (I had to go and listen for it for this review).If you use these boards with an RGB board (as most boards are) it is important to note these will have an effect on the light colours. Currently I have them on a board with pudding keycaps, and as you can see from the picture, there is an effect on the colour (for reference, the pale purple colour is actually white back lighting!). For me this is no issue, I quite like the effect and I take it into account when choosing a back light colour for the board, but with the green (as you can see) it can make the colour a little muddier.Overall these are an enjoyable switch to make use of it you like tactiles, much more tactile than the usual brown switch, with a pleasant sound and a good potential to lube. The switch itself is quite eye catching, with its purple housing. I’d happily recommend these to anyone looking for a tactile switch with more of a tactile event than the usual MX brown, and they have potential to be excellent.

Tactile, but they’re not browns
They’re definitely nice. However they’re not the brown equivalent I was expecting. More their own unique switch.I prefer my browns that came with my 65% but I don’t have enough to swap them all on my 75% so I’m getting used to them. Very nice for gaming. Nice sound. Just doesn’t feel as nice as I expected

Incredible feel and sound
I bought this switch to pair with my second project keyboard, a pink ek68 VIA barebones and some nice pink and white keycaps. I was pleasantly surprised to find that these switches feel just as good as they sound. The tactile feel gives a truly immersive feel to typing and makes me want to work even more. A perfect budget switch for people who want a quiet yet reactive keyboard that gives feedback to the typer.

High quality- quiet and satisfying switches
Fantastic quality, the best switches I have used. I have been through a fair few options and although the feel/sound is personal preference they are so quiet and look and feel great. All arrived in tidy packaging and all working as intended. Best product I have bought on Amazon in ages.

Great sound stock
They sound great stock. Much thocc. Would definitely recommend for beginner builds if you want some great sounding stock linear switches.The switches were easy to install and fit securely. Iâve noticed Akko have been improving their switches as of late and Iâm happy to see that the factory lubing quality has improved, so Iâm glad I gave these a try.

Unbelievably quiet but still tactile and cheap
I switched over to these from gateron milky yellows (linear switches with greater activation force), and instantly a few things are noticeable- the unbelievable quietness- the subtle but definitely noticeable tactile bump at the beginning of the key press- the pins and housing build quality seems much better, I was gentle so as not to blow my hot swap sockets on the board.- Very affordable, especially if you have a keyboard with less than 45 keysTactiliy + quietness is kinda like the holy grail of switches for a lot of people who work in crowded offices, and Akko nailed it. I think it is the rubber lining at the bottom of the switches i think that makes it so.Minor drawbacksI know a lot of people enjoy slamming the keycaps and bottoming out, because of the rubber lining, you don’t quite get that feeling with these, it’s almost like rubber dome when you bottom out, so you might hate that.Out of the box, these are a bit scratchy feeling (which I like), and, I hear that these have about a week or so break in period. But, if you have the ability to lube them, do it, I think that would make em feel even better.Overall, can’t go wrong with these if you like tactile switches and if you won’t miss the clacks and thoccs. Highly recommended !!

Silent switchesI love the feel and I enjoyed modding them on my RK71. These are part of my upcoming portable travel setup.

TL;DR: Good switches – short actuation force (less force to activate, making it good for gaming), smooth experience, sounds good when lubed but also good when not lubed, and cheaper option.These linear keyboard switches offer an incredibly smooth keystroke experience. Personally, I prefer linear switches as I enjoy the smoother and effortless typing experience. Additionally, when these switches are properly lubed, they produce a highly satisfying sound. However, if you choose not to spend a few hours lubing these switches, they are still very good.For gaming, these linear switches are pretty good since it has a low actuation force and travel distance. It’s not the fastest switch in the world but it is definitely more than fast enough. If you are only looking for the fastest switch Akko has, then you should buy the Akko CS silvers.One significant advantage of most Akko switches is their affordability. Despite the high quality, they still offer a cost-effective option that is comparable to many of the top switches. I really like Akko switches and these are no exception.
