Customer Reviews
I've hopped around 10 or so switches in the past few years, and knew I linear were the type for me. I kept seeing CJ's appear and on a whim I bought the original non boxed versions, and loved them, they sounded fine enough to me and most importantly were smooth, but as I used them the stem wobble plus scratchiness when hitting them at an off angle broke the rose tinted glasses for me but then I found these. Shorter travel distance, slight prelubed, and I was wanting to try out a boxed switch anyways so I figured why not try again on what was still my favorite switch, glad I did. Almost a year later and they are still the smoothest switch I've tried ♥.
In the absence of a new idea, I fall back on the reliable box CJ switches. I finished a build without switch films for the first time and these switches definitely don't need them. Super smooth with a pleasant deep sound and the unique gorgeous color is a nice touch.
Coming from Gateron Yellows this was a change in the right direction. My hands no longer hurt from programming all day and the smoothness and deep sound of these switches is something to be experienced. My only problem now is finding a better board to put them into. Coming from only using linear’s this switch is king.
I was in the process of choosing a switch to replace the silent linear switches I’ve had for the past year when I found these. I’ve had them installed for about a month now, and couldn’t be happier. No issues with chatter, smooth right out of the tube (I haven’t filmed or felt the need to yet), and an overall great feel!
