Disappointing switches for gaming peripherals

Computers require quality input hardware, but Akko's switches failed to deliver. Based on my observations, the switches were too mushy and unresponsive, making it difficult to play games efficiently. The only positive is that they have a tactile feel, which may appeal to some users. However, overall, the switches were not up to par for gaming, making it a poor choice for those who want to enhance their gaming experience.

Pros
  • Customizable and programmable for a personalized gaming experience.
Cons
  • Not compatible with all computer systems, limiting its potential customer base.

Wonderful budget switches

I don't know where I first heard about these switches, but when I saw the price I realized I had to try. The stock sound is not bad, the spring is minimal, there is no factory lubrication. However, when they were oiled, they really started to shine. I would think they have a "higher" tone compared to my black ink, but the burn is smooth and a pleasure to type on. I would definitely recommend these switches to anyone on a budget or wanting to try a different brand. Switch

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • I'll write later

Received used product. The packaging was missing, the product was disassembled.

The problem with used switches is you don't know what the previous buyer did with them? Maybe they took it apart and changed the springs or something. Even if I receive used products. I have to pay USED prices. I bought Red Rose and Matcha Green. One was obviously used/returned (the packaging was missing and the product was in the box) and the other was brand new (the packaging was missing. The product was present). So I guess it's 50/50 if you're getting something new or used? I'm not sayingโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than others
