【AKKO Custom Series (CS) Jelly Switch】As one of the popular custom switch, AKKO CS switch series have gain good feedback form the community.

Purpose of releasing customer switches series is to offer more options to keyboard enthusiasts as every tiny bit of changes would create distinct typing experiences. 【About Lubes】It is always subjective when it comes down to the level of lubes that need to be applied on individual switch. Meanwhile, lubing the switches by machine might also affect the lifespan of switches. Thus, concerning those factors, AKKO CS switches will not come factory-lubed at the moment. AKKO CS switches do have a thin layer of dry film in the shrapnel for lubrication purpose, but there is no lube at all on any other parts such as top, stem or spring. 【Compatible with MX Structure Keycaps】AKKO CS switches are designed with general MX structure so that they can fit most keycaps sets with (X) cross stem. This greatly improves the compatibility and you can feel free to change the switch and remake your own keyboard. 【Built-in LED Slot&Durable Lifespan】AKKO CS switches are equipped with north-facing LED slot for LED modification.

Pretty satisfying inexpensive switches

I bought an evga z15 with hot swappable switches and after realizing speedlines weren't for me I settled on a set of akko lavender tactile switches. I'm just an amateur but these switches were great. I chose the Cherry Silent Reds as my roommate complained about the noise of these tactile instruments and they are quite loud, but I preferred the feel of these accos over the Silent Reds. They are also incredibly cheap and have fast shipping.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Hard to say

Suitable for hot-swappable Otemu keyboard. Great Switch alternative.

Bought these because I saw they could be used in place of OMU switches. I bought matcha greens to wear with my Redragon K552 and they worked great. Much better than the original Clicky Blues. The green switches are very smooth and light, but not too bright. They seem a little prickly at times, but it's barely noticeable. Definitely a great purchase and I recommend it to anyone looking to upgrade their budget Otemu board.

Pros
  • Great range
Cons
  • So-so

Budget switch for beginners

I think this is a pretty good switch for people on a budget. I would advise against buying this switch. I regret the purchase. Here are some pros and cons of the switch since I can't put into sentences what I'm trying to say. Pros: - Great price - Sounds pretty good when smeared - Looks great with white keyboards (like mine) - Beginner friendly - Good for gaming Cons: - Uneven sound signature; each switch sounds different - Some switches sound standard when lubricated - They sound very poor…

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • For old

Reachable tactile.

Now that I've used blue and lavender Akko on different keyboards I'm very happy with buying both, although I still haven't decided which of the two I prefer as it feels . There isn't much of a difference between two, at least for my fingers. I have a few more switches I'd like to try as I'd still have more tactile punch, but for now I'm happy with lavender on my everyday kb (epomaker gk 87s) and blue on my "kb home lab" ( tekware phantom 87). Especially for the price. Both sets of switches cost

Pros
  • Special offer
Cons
  • Something's wrong

Great value and amazing performance

Great budget switch. Tight tolerance on the top and bottom of the case, no shooting required. Lubricated with Krytox 205g0. Mounted in the aluminum housing KBDFANS 5°. DZ60RGB V2 PCB, case foam and PCB/panel foam. Aluminum mounting plate paired with red top and black bottom Alpherior PBT keycaps. No scratchy feeling, very minimal stimulator wobbling. Great sound after smearing. Great playing feel with very little typos or heavy fingering. These 43g nibs offer the best balance of weight and…

Pros
  • Compatible with MX Structure caps
Cons
  • Unreliable

best thing i've tried so far

I'm new to the customization game so I've only tried my hand at cheaper stuff. I have 3 furs. Keyboards (2 of which are interchangeable) with Outemu Reds, Outemu Blacks and Content Browns. Outemu switches have a lot of spring ping no matter what I try. Grease, gaskets, o-rings have all improved the overall sound, but there's no escaping that ringing! Content switches (default in Velocifire TKL02) don't ping that much, but they do creak a lot. These Akko Greens do it. no Ring. and I'm so happy…

Pros
  • AKKO Custom Series (CS) Jelly Switch
Cons
  • Some errors

I rarely leave reviews but EPOMAKER and AKKO are amazing!

I bought Rose Reds on a whim, which was a little out of character for me having used tactile switches in the past. I didn't really know what to expect but I think I just got upgraded to linear switches. Pros: 1. The price is great for the quality of these switches. The rose red feeling is so buttery soft I almost can't believe it. I also oiled the switches but even before that I thought they sounded great right out of the box. The sound they make with my cherry profile caps is mesmerizing. I'm…
