- I was not pleased; Cherry MX Browns have no EFFECTIVE tactility; not a 'light tactility' kind of experience more a crunchy linear. 2/10, not trying again.

Me: hmm maybe i should get into mechanical keyboards
Me, having checked the prices: No!
As someone keyboard illiterate, every single keyboard on your channel you seriously reviewed sound the same to me. I personally use a membrane keyboard that came with my pc. I love your videos
2 keyboards with similar sounds: one is terrible and one is amazing because of 1 decibel worth of rattle I can't hear even if I try. One is therefore overpriced at $100 with RGB and the other is justified at $1000
without RGB.
@@NaudVanDalen That's hyperbolic but true. Tbh I can't deal with the spring crunch and scratchiness. Both of which mx browns has. That and mx switches are 10x more expensive than clones that are much better. Most of the price of a custom is the case, pcb, and keycaps. But honestly I just worry about the keycaps, switches, and stabilizers. Most production boards have awful stabs.
@@NaudVanDalen 1000% of all the experience is based on the feeling and not the sound IMO, but I bought a K75 years ago so point and laugh at me pretending like my opinion is worth shit
@Dominator Same but I prefer thocky keyboards tho.
@@book3900 wait... what? You like the tick, but you like the thock too? ABSOLUTELY NOT!
“Brown switches are the worst of both worlds.” Excellent description. Feeling the bump is based on the angle the key is pressed. Aint nobody got time to be pressing the keys a certain way. 🙄
exactly!
wtf are you talking about? you gotta press the key a certain way to feel the bump? fool it goes ONLY down and then vertically back up. the bump is where they actual keystroke registers, rather than having to bottom the shit out. I liked the browns way better then the gimmicky red and blues. I like the blacks the best.
Geo Bois Just so u know, I bought a Corsair with Mx brown n they wobble. Seems quality has declined from reading reddit posts. The further to the top the key is pressed, the bump becomes apparent n vice versa. If you got browns switches u like why do u care what anyone else thinks? Food for thought.
@@RockinRenaissance best food for thought is just making yourself a favour and consider Gaterons, Kailh Box and even more than that other than Cherry's. it's like trying to slice your bread with old and damaged knife when you have plenty of choice right there in your kitchen. there's s also a shit ton of custom switches such as Holy Pandas, Novelkeys switches and so on.
So do the zelios v2's. . . . and the holly pandas i have in my key switch tester wobble more than any cherry switch I have. If you don't want wobble you can go for a box switch but you'll need a stiffer spring and fingers like Schwarzenegger.
P.S. 100% of the problem is you bought a corsair keyboard - total trash.
It's a linear switch that thought it might try being tactile. Like expecting a ski jump and going over a mogul.
I like this.

Watching through your entire upload history, and I absolutely love that your first entry into this hobby was the same as mine! I have a Durgod K320 in white, with MX Reds. First proper mechanical keyboard I've ever owned. It's an absolutely lovely keyboard, with great dampening and a nice solid chassis.
I've since moved on closer to my "end game" (I don't think there truly is an end game in this hobby...) and am now sporting a Keychron K2 v2 Hotswappable with Gateron Browns. They're a fine switch, but just not quite as tactile as I would like - though with the body and keycaps of the K2, this is a really nice sounding board. I did add two layers of foam to the inside of the chassis though, which toned down the deck echo a ton.
Anyway, really glad I found your channel. It feels like the perfect middle ground between entertaining and informative, and your enthusiasm toward keyboards matches mine so I relate to a lot of bits. Keep up the great work Glarses.
guessing that much have taken about half an hour lol - durgod k320 is a proper solid mech, a well built prebuild that I will continue to recommend (just, you know, without the mx browns)
if you're not quite happy with the tacility on those gat browns then I may just have the video for you coming out tomorrow
thanks for the sub! glad you enjoy what I make; here's to hoping your journey for endgame goes smoothly!
Durgod K320 was my first as well. They're so lovely. Such a high build quality for cheap... Now i'm using a Keychron V3 Hotswap with Keychron Browns, trying out Cherry MX Purples thanks to glarses.
Ah, the algorithm finally recommended me some Cherry MX meme content.
quantum
This is surprising to me - but each to their own! I went from Browns to Reds and found it really unpleasant to type on Reds because of the lack of feedback. Maybe it's a case of managing expectations of how 'tactile' they will be? Or maybe the experience of going from tactile to linear is a different experience from going from linear to tactile? Personally I think they feel pretty good and find the tactility pretty in the keystroke!
This is a hilarious take on it though - excellent work hahaha
Try 'better' (more tactile) switches and I think you will get it. :P like t1/zealio/holy panda/everglide tactile switches :P It's like day and night in terms of how pronounced the tactility is. But I understand that some people want it to be almost not there, but there are still brown switches with better feeling than cherry browns for half the price of them
for linears the feedback is the sudden stop when you bottom out. on tactiles the bump is how you know its been actuated and you can lift off before that sudden jolt of a bottom out.
I concur. After typing several days on my cherry mx blue keyboard after previously having cherry mx red for a few weeks, typing on cherry mx red feels 'too fast'. It is too light, like when I was typing, my fingers would just slide until the bottom of the key too easily. It's great for gaming, but for typing, I wouldn't say unpleasant, but I think it feels wrong.
@@153Yoyok maybe because you have a heavy touch. Im using kailh low profile reds (lower travel distance, sligthly smoother and lower actuation distance than cherry reds). And they are heaven. They are almost as silent as non low profile silent switches, and you feel fast and accurate, and you actually are.
It´s like sliding on water.
For you i would suggest kailh low profile whites. They are are fast, 60gr and they´re both tactile and click. The tactile and click are very crisp.
For sound reference th-cam.com/video/Zg6yY0o6zoc/w-d-xo.html

"should probably use the rest of my student loan to buy a keycult" LMAO
I use Browns and I can definitely feel it.
I always know when I have pressed a key.
Blues seem pointless to me. They’re the same but make a click sound.
And Reds... they’re just mush.
My guess is that when you come from Blues, you’re not as sensitive to the Brown tactile-ness? Idk.
@@cubetheorist3419 yeah, I would say this. back when I first had my brown keyboard I thought it was nice, i could definitely feel the tactility. but after using NK Blueberries for a year browns are very close to reds.
you can feel when you've pressed a key on browns, but that's all it is, being able to tell you've pressed a key
with my blueberries they have a really nice tactility and feedback to them, it's like flipping a light switch. very satisfying.
@@LateNightFire I used a second-generation IBM Model-M (one of my universities had *REALLY*-OLD computers in the computer-lab inside the library (the computer-lab in the library was a separate-room from the room that had all the books & study-desks, by the way)). (Yeah I know: lucky me :-) ). (It was typing-heaven to a person-who-types-without-looking-down-at-the-keyboard).
Unfortunately when the university had a "give-away all the old equipment"-day those keyboards were the FIRST to disappear (even though I arrived there EXTRA-early, WAYYY-before they opened-the-room where all the old stuff [they were giving[-]away] was).
I'm looking for the "Cherry-MX"-switches that are the CLOSEST-THING to those 2nd-Generation--IBM-Model-M "Buckling-Spring Switches", (but I dunno if that would be the "Brown" or the "Blue" switches).
Any advice?
Browns I think their tactility is pretty low
blues have a more tactile feeling
well now this confuses me. I was looking into browns because I have blues and often don't notice when I have pressed a key next to the one I intended to press.
I thought he was exaggerating but when my my keyboard with browns got delivered I realized his explanation was pretty accurate
Gateron Brown or bust
@@makeleletoulalan5604 I'll take u4t, holy panda, kiwi, penguin and quite a few others before I would consider gat brown
i tried a outemu brown on a friend's house, and was amazing i liked a lot!!! i just bought when i arrived home lol
The only decent and actually tactile brown switches are Gateron and Kailh, rest of them are washed up reds
@@maizomeno I can attest to outemu browns. They're great and not scratchy like the cherry mx's
Preference here: I used a red switch keyboard and the typing experience was fine if you bottomed out the switch, only problem was that it was SUPER easy for me to miss-press the space bar while either typing or gaming, partly due to the K68 being a very thick keyboard. Anyway, here with my K70 with brown switches, I no longer have the issue of miss pressing space-bar. I find that pressing the keys in slowly affords a tactile bump, but a fast press feels very similar to a red switch. For me, browns are the perfect in between.
Yeah pressing MX Brown switches fast pretty much makes it feel linear. But honestly the tactility of a brown switch is just really bad and non existent. Especially after trying other tactile switches on the market or a clicky switch.
Lol

Ur pfp makes me want to die
This is unironically the only honest/real review of Cherry MX Brown switches I have ever seen. They don't feel anything like blues, and they are barely quieter. They're more like a sluggish, thumping ogre switch than the holy combination of blues and reds that most people think they are. Disclaimer: I am typing this comment on my Cherry MX Brown K70
This is the most relatable video I've seen in a long time. I was so excited to try browns and ordered a Vortex board with them. By the time I received that board I had built one with Halo Clears and returned the browns immediately.
this is funny to me because i’m the exact opposite; browns are my favorite
Same lol I might like reds but browns feel great to me
Same
The ability to speak doesnt make you intelligent
_3o6 where is that coming from lmao
Same, really like them for typing
I know one use for them. Hope you still read your comments.
MX Browns used to have a small following in oldschool pc rhythm-gaming communities where they were looking for a switch that you could "float" on when going up and down really fast on them. This was before MX Switches were the big new thing and every rhythm gamer played on membrane "switches" or scissor-switches so the MX Brown was the logical route to take.
I've been rocking browns for 5 years and I love them. To each their own!
helps when resting your fingers on them. playing shooters and prevents you from accidentally stepping left or right when holding a corner =D
You love them because you don't know any better. If the only car someone has ever seen is a vauxhall astra, then they will think its he best car in the world. Cherry browns are an astra, kailh box are the lamborghini aventador.
@@enjoshi-godrez8775 I've had red before and I still prefer brown.
@@dakure907 yes im saying all cherry mx switches are poor. They are strachey and in the case of the browns, the tackle bump is so small they just become louder linear. They are a 5/10, but because you have never heard better from kailh, zealios or even a well lubed gateron, your metric for what "good" is, is heavily skewed. Its not a preference thing, its an experience thing.
@@enjoshi-godrez8775 That's like, your opinion, man.
and the youtube algorithm strikes again
this is the second recomendation I get in the last few days from a channel that is too small to have any significant reach but still has high quality content... gotta sub now I guess
These are really popular switches. I've used cherry mx brown for a couple years now and they're great in my opinion. They're basically a cherry mx red (same travel to actuate, slightly different required force) with a very mild but noticeable tactile bump. At first it was odd to get used to, but it feels pretty smooth now. Most the time your fingers don't bottom out and basically float over the keys. Because of this they can reduce typing fatigue, your fingers wont have to push as far or as hard. I ordered the keyboard from wasdkeyboards with optional sound dampening O rings too, so it's very quiet compared to most mechanical switches. If you type for school/work/hobbies and game, I highly recommend brown switches. But if you almost only use the keyboard for gaming, a linear switch is likely better. To each their own. Dope video and editing!
Really? I tend to find exactly the opposite. You need to be much more regular on browns. The reds will just output about every touch XD
Browns were my first ever keyswitch I had on my K95 back in like 2016, and I thought they were the best thing ever back then. I later got a buckling spring Unicomp and then got some BOX Pale Blues to mod my K95 and just put the Browns in some cheap Amazon keyboard I got for my sisters. I legit didn't use them for about a year, and when I came back to them, they felt so bad compared to how I remembered them
I swear bro created the cherry mx browns then said that he hated it and finally got views for hating on a swich

Sir you are going to get canceled if you do that again ok so this is better now but in context he did say something that would get him cancelled
ayo 💀
Broo 😭😭😭
"Hmmm, where's the A?" LMAO you got me there, you got a sub, mate!
i'm out of the loop plz explain
Cherry MX Clears are basically what Browns are supposed to be. I have a Corsair K95 with Browns and a Pok3r with Clears. Brown *does* feel different than Red, but as you said the tactility is subtle unless you're pressing the keys very lightly. If you like the idea of Browns but don't actually like Browns, try Clears.
That start was so accurate, acting all calm with the delivery dude then the second hes gone you rip open your package and get all giddy
I laughed hard when you said "they're ticklish at best" instant sub for me!
Love the playful production style. I'm a huge blue switch lover for typing (reds for gaming), and recently bought a new board with brown switches, hoping it would basically be a quieter version of blues that I could use in my shared office, and was also disappointed. Totally agree with your take; it feels like I spilled a soda on my red switches and never cleaned up the sticky residue.
Any recommendation for blue-like feedback but quieter and non-clicky switches?

for me, the feel of browns is heavily dependant on the board you’re using them with, along with how worn in the switches are.
proof?
@@lolvoii nil?
This has to be a troll but even with the disclaimer I'm not sure if it is. Browns are perfectly tactile. If you intend to use it properly it's tactile. If you smash the keys down then you will completely miss the whole point of them. The beauty of browns over a linear switch is they stop a lot of unwanted keypresses while leaning on the keys. A lot of gaming switches for example, when hovering of wasd, it's often easy to strafe by accident if you are used to resting your fingers on the keys.
Even a switch tester is enough to understand that Cherry Browns are not really tactile (only if you press with the right angle and slowly, otherwise it feels not different than Reds).
Hell, even Kailh Browns (both normal and Box versions) have more tactility... and if we talk about all the existing switches (so not only the ones found in prebuilt keyboards) there are some that have a nice sharp and distinguishable tactility, like Kailh Box Royals.
@@Shin_97 if you can't feel the difference between red and browns, you are typing too hard.
I’ve tried a bunch of different switches (halo trues/clears, zealios v2, black inks, cherry blacks, cherry reds, kailh box reds) and for some reason browns are still one of my favorites. I guess it all is preference. :)
Yeah, they're not exactly my favorites but they're definitely not that terrible. Honestly sometimes scratchy switches can feel nice too once in a while, and I'm not joking. Lubed linears are heaven but sometimes you just wanna type hard and crazy and browns are kinda nice for that.
Browns are still better than every single clicky MX switch except maybe Jades and Navies. They at least don't sound like clicky 5 cent pens.
I love my brown switches, they feel very nice to type on and I type almost 6 hours a day every day. I had blue before and it was way too loud, brown is in the middle of not being loud and feeling satisfying while typing. It is had to describe but it is the nest for my use case.
@@tszpingcheung1008 browns are lighter than blues though, and blues are already a light switch
I remember when I was reading about mechanical switches for my first keyboard with them, I was fully set on getting Browns. Then I tried them in store... and was sorely disappointed but fell in love with the Blue ones.

I don’t understand why everyone is hating on the browns? I used to have blues but they were too loud. I got browns because I like the tactile feel. personally my favorites
I spent a few days my new Brown switch keyboard. They're just not as tactile as Blue. Blues are loud but they feel a lot better honestly.The part that I do like about MX Brown is they require less Force to actuate which actually feels nice. I'm not sure if I'm going to keep the browns or go back to MX blue. I also much prefer the space bar on the browns
i’m not huge into keyboards, i actually just bought my first one a weeks or so ago. But even I, as a normie, was very disappointed with browns, they felt like a glorified membrane to me and offered really mediocre tactility. I ended up with blues on my board (which i’m actually pretty happy with) simply because they they were more tactile than the supposedly tactile switches

bro exactly, fuck browns im getting halo trues
I use Red switches and fit me perfectly. I switched to browns for month or so for testing purposes and it is very tactile to me I didn't like it because i prefer linear but I can clearly see how browns can be best of both worlds for many people. I prefer them over blues for sure and that is not because of the sound but the fact that its "bump" is not as pronounced I don't feel like when it actuates my finger just dips down it is weirdly consistent which is something you want when wanting switch like this.
Of course it is always going to be compromise but as I said there is plenty of people that want just that.
I went for browns on my first mechanical keyboard just now because they:
Sounded pleasant (I know sound is not everything)
Are not too loud (Gaming with friend constantly, my friend got a keyboard with blue's and we flamed him so hard until he got another one with silent reds)
Let's see how it goes
At first I thought it was gonna be a normie vid praising Browns but I was shown wrong. Good work
Glarses, I NEED you to try this, I've already tried this and I'm actually kind-of blown away, try OVER-lubing some MX browns, I know its not going to feel any worse or any better than it was before but make sure you of the STEM, and it actually gives off a deeper noise than a lubed GAT yellow, its not that bad overall other than the feel but its more for sound in this case.
Browns are the best feeling when typing quickly IMO, the whole "only if you type like this" *slow chicken pecks at keyboard* bit made no sense to me. That's EXACTLY when I feel the response of the keys so I'm not slamming them into the base like with MX Blacks.
Bro this was literally me when i tried a brown switch at my friends house i thought mx browns were goddamn nice on paper but when i tried it i literally thought they were kinda spoiled at the tactile bump
Used blue for almost 10 years, switched to brown and loving it
Same, once I readjusted my finger pressure a bit, it's been a joy!

I completely agree with this. I've been using a membrane keyboard all my life and was curious to know what all these mechanical keyboards were all about.
Went out to try out some switches especially browns but I was underwhelmed. There's hardly no tactile at all. My membrane keyboard has a more satisfying tactile feel.
Probably pushing on a button placed on sponge would have more tacticle feel than red or brown mx.
Red mxes are linear
That moment when you realize you've watched a TH-camr's entire video collection more than twice lol.
Love your work man!
thank you!
So happy I found this video and had it validate all my feelings about MX Browns. I lived the exact experience at the beginning, but luckily it was with somebody else's browns after already disliking my reds.
Best youtuber EVER. Even better then randomfrankp
LOL the Arthur flash back noise at the beginning tho
When I ordered my first keyboard, I thought I'd like tactile switches, so I ordered one with browns. That's how I found out I like linear switches.
This is a true story btw shoutout NK Creams gang
Thanks brother, I am glad someone is being honest about it!
I had the exact same reaction - hoping for a "blue" switch feeling but quieter...nope!
this was actually me when I got my k70 with browns when I was like 14. I was so hyped to be getting real gaming keyboard, then I got it and it felt exactly like my apple keyboard. Rainbow lights cool though.
Haha I love my browns, they feel like blues but they're not loud
You love them because you don't know any better. If the only car someone has ever seen is a vauxhall astra, then they will think its the best car in the world. Cherry browns are an astra, kailh box are the lamborghini aventador.

I really don't lol; you could get a linear with the same actuation and bottom out force, or you could get an actual tactile switch; it really blows my mind, i don't see the point

Yeah, that was basically me, after getting my keyboard with brown switches. Funny thing here, the first mechanical keyboard I ever wanted to buy was supposed to have brown switches and just by accident was shipped with blue switches.

This is how legend started ❤️ ❤️
Cherry MX Brown switches are linear switches with commitment issues.
Hahahaha, I had the exact reaction when I got my browns board. Thought I'd be getting best of both but it's the complete opposite. Ended up swapping all of them out for a mix of linears and clickys.
glareses’s house is a backrooms level
I've been watching you for months now, but I've only just now been recommended this video
Your brain will still notice the tactile bump even if you don't, and personally I feel lost using linears. They're mediocre.
If you're looking for something as tactile as blues, stay away from MX brown clones. Check out Kailh BOX Browns. There are also tons of premium options, or 'ergo clears'.
For Linears, Gateron Reds are really smooth

Damn, this is literally my reaction when I've got my keyboard with browns. I was so disappointed with my first mechanical keyboard.
"Are people really enjoying this shit? Why someone wil spend a few hundred bucks on it when my laptop keyboard feels better?"
After soldering everglide oreos to the board I'm finally believe that there is a tactility in this world.
I like cherry Mx browns. I use them. They are amazing. Waw!
I guess cherry mx browns aren’t really “tactile” they get dumped on a lot by the keyboard community. I still like mx browns though even if they aren’t “tactile”
They technically are tactile. There are different levels of it, but they still definetly are tactile, they are not linear.
@@Th0bse To be fair, alps linear is more tactile than mx browns. In fact, most 'linear' switches outside of cherry clones are more tactile than cherry mx browns.
@@rich1051414 keyword more. That means that they still are. Aluminum is way weaker than titanium but it is still a metal.
mx browns are reds that try to be tactile but fails miserably
this is correct. you are correct.
What is failing miserably here, is your ability to accurately feel what is going on at your fingertips, my friend.
Th0bse and what is failing, is your senses my friend.
@@qersqjwjr3569 because I actually feel the tactile bump of them, and you seem to not feel it? Sure, makes sense....
Th0bse good for you I don’t really care, they still don’t feel like an actual brown switch
Who ever edits this mans video is a goat
(it's me)
Omg hi
You are so good at editing
I wish i was as good as u
Confirmed: this guy deserves an Oscar
"Where's the A?" absolutely killed me ngl
On the other hand, MX Reds is like when you have that dream when you just start falling and then you wake up.
The silent reds are like this x10
That "where's the A?" was so unexpected and had such a perfect comedic time. Love your videos!
everytime I'm sad I come back to this vid
but it feels good tho
0:00 This is literally the music when Daniel Tiger is about to imagine something.
MY MAN STARTS HIS VID WITH A PSO SOUND :D INSTANT SUBBBB!!!
This is why I’m glad I always go for reds
I was hoping MX brown would be silent blues, meh was I wrong. I'm glab I bought a switch tester before buying an actual keyboard. Mx clears seems to be better but still not clicky, just bumpy.
Your video is genuinly hillarous.
Of course they aren't "silent blues"... The click isn't just there for entertainment, how do you think the blue switches get as tactile as they are?
