swk switches is also really smooth aswell

David has a softness of about 3"

Awesome video - really helpful. Appreciated. Below are my faves. Adding the timestamps so I can listen back and forth between them. Jerzzi Honey Bean 6:50 Akko Penguin 7:15 Akko Fairy 7:20 Gazzew U4 7:40 TTC Silent Frozen 7:45

I have switches very similar to mx browns and they're not that bad

I have the WS Morandi's and not a big fan, my taste change so often tho. Big shout out to Cream sodas

Do you need to hand lube the everglade sticky rice switches or is the factory lube fine?

Gateron Smoothies are king

Top 1: Vintage Black 1994 Top 2: BCP Top 3: Neon Owlab Top 4: Jieum V2 Top 5: FBB F3 Can TH-camr finds real information about keyboard? :V

I personally found the HMX Lotus to be the truth. Best feel and sound. I think Hyacinth V2s don't get enough love, though.

Do you need to put extra lube on the everglade switch rices or is the factory lube enough?

Very nice video: zero fluff and directly to the point. I have just one wish for the future: make separate videos for tactile and linear switches. I think I'm not in minority when I absolutely want to have either linear or tactile switch and the noise comes only after choosing the general type of the switch. And I think it would be better to explicitly say if a silent switch is silent for bottoming only, or for both bottoming and uplift.

Was this comparision done before Outemu Silent Cream Yellow were on market or was there some reason those switches didn't get to the list? They are reported to be smoother than Gazzew U4 and about 2-3 times cheaper.

great vid

Nah dude I feel like they're really thin sounding. I've tried these on budget and high end boards. I wish they didn't sound that way.

I don't have time to lube switches anymore... Unless they're MX blacks or nixies, I'll always take the time for those

Why .NU

Whats with the .NU

Which will be quieter: Akko Piano or TTC Neptune? I need switches that aren't too loud. They must have pre-travel: 2mm, actuation force: 40-45, bottom out force: 45-50. I can't find any suitable ones. All quiet switches either have a pre-travel of 1-1.2 or an actuation force of less than 40g. What can you recommend?

sound tests don't even begin to do justice for this switch, the tactile event is like an act of god. i loaded an fr4 qk100 with them and typing full tilt sounds and feels like popping unlimited bubble wrap but pitched down a few steps

Morandis or Gateron Smoothies?

They all sound the same to me, while wearing Sennheiser HD 560S headphones through a Schiit Magni Unity DAC/amp.

HMX Lotus is my personal favorite stock switch of all time. Perfectly & consistently lubed. No stem wobble. Satisfying clack. I highly recommend it.

is the xinhai better than the v2u?

I think the gateron smoothie silvers are better stock than the morandis and have a similiar typing feel.

the milky yellows sound like the lego building sound lol

morandis are some of the worst stock switches that exist. leaf ping and stem wobble and a lack of factory lube. even with films and hand lubed you cant get rid of the leaf ping totally or the stem wobble. id rather see the akko v3 creamy purple pro here or almost anything ktt being suggested.

Stock morandi is horrible, huge amount of spring ping & leaf ping

LOVING my HMX Xinhai, however I need more Nixies. Is there are place to sign up on the website to get notified when you get more in?

hi do you have any recommendations any low pitched thocky tactile switches? I'm currently using bobau4t and bobau4tx but I'm wondering if theres anything newer/better out there

For me, lubed switches usually feel like there’s syrup in my switch, it just adds resistance even if it’s technically smoother. Ultra tactile switches are exhausting to me, so I get the return to browns. The whole notched slider method is probably not capable of making a switch to my liking, there’s just too much friction involved in creating the bump, hopefully more Alps-inspired switches will make it to market since their tactility is much sharper, clickiez are much too tactile to use for long unfortunately.

If you're into keyboards enough to buy standalone switches to throw in your keyboard, and you for some reason think that you can't afford to spend 1-3 hours lubing those switches, you need to reassess your life. Hand lubing is always better and it's not rocket appliance boys

Finally there's sound test now. 👏 Thank God! haha

The fact every switch video on this channel uses a neo70 is very nice. Not only does that say it’s user friendly having to constantly remove and attach parts but also makes comparisons viable

Nice vid mate

Sorry not sorry, I just can't get onboard with all this WS Morandi hype. I really didn't like how they felt. Quite scratchy and they have a super weird bottom-out sound and feel. Tbh they weren't much better after re-lubing them myself and I ended up giving them away. They're actually one of my most disappointing switches of all time. Granted, I've only tried somewhere around 40 switches but yeah....did not like the Morandis *at all*. Best stock switches I've ever tried were the Keebhut x Aflion Tropical Waters v2 which are unfortunately no longer being restocked. Polished stems and crazy good factory lube. Say what you want about Aflion's issues, but I've only ever had very good switches from them (I have bags of several other Aflion switches too, and love them all!) Anyway, thanks again for the great vid Milktooth bro, can't wait for the ultra-clack meta to pass 😅

Is there such thing as a clacky switch that isn't that loud?

I am a huge HMX fan. Anything HMX I think is a winner of a switch. Only problem I have is I have to stop putting them in all my boards because they do have the same general tone between the many options. I ended up loving HMX Garnets the most. Glad to see other switch manu’s taking more care about good factory line jobs.

I'm trying to decide between the TTC Neptune and the TTC Venus. Are there any clear advantages of one over the other?

Many thanks for best swtiches store in the world! I'm living in Ukraine and even with additional shipping from US your are the best in term of veriety, price and shipping speed.

I honestly think the Morandis are quite overrated. I compared them directly to a lot of other switches and they don't even make my top 10. I would definitely place the Oil Kings in that spot which I think should have made an apperance in this video.

I have heard gateron switches are scractchy. I am confused between akko Cream yellow pro or this. I am looking for creamy to thoccy sound while also not being scratchy to type on my monsgeek m1.

Is it just your setup or do the Morandis have spring ping? I definitely hear something in that sound test that the others didn't have. I also agree with another comment that they are incredibly (and distractingly) wobbly. I do not get the hype when there are BSUN, HMX, and even some Epomaker switches that sound and feel better.

Aight I've only watched 10 seconds and I already love the 3:2 man. Such a cool look and super weird how it can make such a difference

Nice vid mate

balls

My go to stock switch has always been oil kings, little on the pricey side iirc but no work needed

Have you tried Tangerines? If so, would you still say Morandi's are better?

Hi Milktooth, I've been disinterested in the keyboard hobby for about 5 years now. Started watching these videos and they got me hooked back in. I think I've placed 2 or 3 orders, queuing up my next one now - I've printed a bunch of switch samplers for friends. I appreciate the videos, fast shipping, and easy to use website. Keep doing what y'all are doing!
