Review on πŸ”† Gateron MX Keyboard Switches with SMD LED Underglow, Compatible for MX Mechanical Keyboards, Transparent Cover with White Base - SMD Yellow (68 PCS) by Jennifer Whalen

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great switches for effortless touch input, not just for gaming!

Although these switches are much more sensitive and accidental presses take some getting used to initially, they are worth the investment as they are much easier/less tiring to type than even Cherry MX Brown. Currently using these Gateron Clears on a networked ZSA Planck EZ with hot swappable switches as well as a couple of Cherry MX Browns that came with the board. It feels like tapping on pillows or clouds, but in a good way. Of course, opinions about likes and dislikes depend on individual preferences. If you're touch typing, your hands will be especially grateful. when typing a non-QWERTY keyboard layout such as Dvorak, Workman, or Colemak. This is probably as good as it gets without manually modding switches and doing something "crazy" like switching to shorthand.
