7/9/2023 0 Comments Tactile vs clicky switchesTactile switches are known to be somewhat clicky but still preserving some of that linear smoothness.Ĭlicky switches are all for tactility and are known for a big tactical bump, and thick “thock” sound when bottoming out. The linear switches are known for having no tactile bump and faster actuation times. This name only applies to Cherry MX red switches and clones from Kailh and Gateron. Linear switches are also often called red switches because of the color of the stem. The only exception to this is if you are interested in the 0 input lag delay that the Razer optomechanical switches offer but then you will have to live with a scratchy switch which is sub-optimal.īack to the main topic of the 3 big categories. Moreover, these Logitech or Razer switches cannot be bought separately so you are stuck with buying a whole keyboard if you are interested in them – which you really shouldn’t be. These are also generally inferior to true custom keyboard switches in terms of performance. Unfortunately, if you are looking into getting custom mechanical keyboard switches the brand switches are not really an option because they use different mechanisms and cannot (should not) be lubed or filmed like normal switches. Most proprietary “brand” switches like Razer and Logitech mechanical switches still fall under these 3 main categories.
