Gateron Brown Mechanical Keyboard Switches (120 Pack) - Tactile & Balanced for Versatile Typing & Gaming - 45g Actuation Force

I had not been happy at all with softer linear switches on a custom keyboard I'm building so selected these Gateron greens to try. I'm a touch typist. These are functionally identical to the Cherry MX Green switchesI put one of these side by side with the Cherry MX green and am impressed that I cannot feel or hear a difference. Since MX green was what I had selected from a switch test block, this saved me money and I got them fast from Amazon. I installed the Gateron Greens with silicone o rings, for shorter throw after the tactile bump/switch close and less noise. I'm very pleased with these Gateron Green MX style switches. They are indeed Glorious. :)

Great switches. Just enough clicky sound without being too annoying and great tactile feel. . Would buy again.

I bought these to be used on clickers. I am cutting off the pins anyways so it does not matter to me if they are bent or very thin cause they are . For what I need them they are great and affordable. I would not however put these in my keyboard as like I said the pins are very cheaply made. And will break off easily.

The switches work and allow light to come through. They are clicky but not to clicky if that makes any sense. The reason for the 4 stars is because 7 of the switches didn't work. But 7 broken out of 120 is pretty good

They are what they are intended for. I liked how is it was to install. And they do function properly. I used a few none of them are faulty or their pins are broken so far. And i enjoyed their sound.

Switches were nice and very clicky. they were very easy to install and in my opinion, I believe that they are worth the price! Very cheap compared to the same brand of switches! My only criticism is that some of the pins come a bit bent, but the switches came with some tweezers to bend them straight again, but it's not really a deal breaker considering you get 120 pieces for $38!

The media could not be loaded. I am very new to the keyboard modding territory, and expected to like tactile switches best, but I fell in love with the Gateron Clears pretty instantaneously after testing one in a Glorious sample box. They’re an absolute pleasure to type on, **especially after lubing with Krytox 205g0.**I noticed that these are generally recommended for gamers who need easy-to-press keys with ultra-fast response times, but I’d like to add that they can be wonderful for those of us who like to “bottom out” keystrokes without ending up with sore fingers. They make a lovely, subtle, satisfying, quiet-but-not-too-quiet, lower-toned “clack” (see video).Caveat: they’re so lightweight that it’s very easy to accidentally press more than one key at a time and wind up with a lot of typos if you don’t have steady, careful fingers (or really good autocorrect).The keyboard pictured is a Keydous NJ80 with a brass plate (apparently one of the best pre-build keyboards one can find on Amazon for the price). It came stocked with Gateron Milky Yellows, which are wonderful in their own right. But since I do a lot of typing for work & in general, I wanted to adjust my keyboard to suit me best. And oh, what a dangerous game that is… haha

Similar to Cheery Blacks, but with a deeper tone when lubed. Overall feeling and actuation force is almost the same so when put on different keyboards its easy to not notice a difference unless you are actively looking for it.I would say though, if you are someone who prefers to type softly or your keystrokes are not really strong it could lead to fatigue or just not actuating some of the switches at all. So it is something to keep in mind.Sound on on a GMMK PRO (Gasket mounted board with foam backing)Unlubed is pretty clacky but not too loud, similar to brown switches or reds but a bit deeper.Lubed is a lot more thocky but still almost as loud as unlubed, a little bit higher pitch than cherry blacks, and also a tad louder.Lubed plus gaskets sound is REALLY deep and a lot quieter, would definetely recommend doing that if you prefer deeper notes from your switches.Did not get any major bent pins from my package, which is always nice.Overall I think these are a great choice for heavy typers or if you want something that is really deep pitched.
