EPOMAKER AKKO CS Custom Series Linear Silver, 43gf, 3 Pin Switch, 45 Pieces (AKKO Silver)

These are pre-lubed switches from the factory but did not expect them to perform this good out of the box! Really impressed on the performance. I ordered 2 sets of these switches and found about 2-3 switches with less lube out of those 2 sets meaning that there's an insignificant chance that you can get a full set with more than 2-3 switches with less lube. Definitely a buy for budget Mechanical keyboard enthusiasts!

Great tactile switches eventhough i'm partial to linears. I wanted a 4th board with tactile switches for those times i wanted to mess around with a clackier sounding board, and these did not disappoint. Smooth despite the tactile bump and they really shone bright once i applied some Glorious G-Lube. My only gripe is that they were not easy to take apart with a switch opener and had to painstakingly pry them apart with some needlenose tweezers. Hence, why i knocked off 1 star. But once you get the hang of it, it doesn't take too long.

Actually quite good.

Really good switches, needed something light and linear and this one came up.. really good value for money switches, the cs series is a truly excellent option for budget switches. They feel really high premium quality, and helps to have the dustproof stems as well. Sounds pretty good straight out of the box, but I prefer lubing them before use. Excellent either way.

Installed these in an Akko 5705B Plus, and along with the Tempest Tape Mod + XDA profile keycaps, they are smooth, thocky and creamy. They are pre-lubed from the factory and while i had my doubts and figured i would have to re-lube them myself, I cracked one open and saw it was sufficiently lubed from factory. They sound and feel incredible stock. You won't be disappointed!

If you're looking for a halfway point between "thock" and "clack", this switch is it. I chose them for an Epomaker TH80 build, and they have been lubed with Glorious G-Lube, while the springs are bag lubed with Krytox G105. Slapped on some Epomaker "Polar" MDA profile keycaps and the keyboard sounds + feels marvelous. Noticeable tactile bump but low actuation force strikes a nice balance for typing. For gaming, not so much.

Peach switch.I recently bought the peach switches and the banana ones and after some mods i can safely say this is a good thocc switch for cheap.(i recommend the peach ones)

The switches came somehow pre-lubed i was shocked and i put it in my epomaker sk61 and sounded AMAZING and its great for the price but if these were linears they would be ten times better

Considering they are priced smack bang in prime “budget” territory, I wasn’t expecting much, and just wanted some cheap tactile switches for a Corne I was putting together to see if I could get on with it (I totally can by the way, if you don’t have one then get one).They look great, come in a nice box, have a strange name like most switches do these days, and feel absolutely FANTASTIC.If you’ve ever used Topre you’ll feel right at home with these, there are big similarities. The bump is right at the top, like, really right at the top. And when you push past it you get flung right to the bottom with a satisfying chunky thocc.They’re perfectly weighted, no scratchiness and fantastic value. My other boards with 2-3x more expensive switches aren’t getting a look in.

Got these to upgrade a keyboard with the 3-pin mechanical switches... Got the rose-red and the matcha green ones.They are both turning out to be superb in every respect.Operationally the rose-red ones are super slick and responsive in game, and they have a very slight click to them which affords that tactile reassurance as you thrash them in a game! They're sort of between a silent click and a gentle thock, if that makes sense? They're really good to use.The matcha green ones are similar in operation regarding pressure feel and responsiveness, but the green ones are slightly 'softer' in sound and feel. You get more of a thock than a click with the green ones. What we've done is used rose-red in some areas of the keyboard and green in others where it best suits them for our use.The result is a gaming keyboard that works supremely well and sounds awesome in use too!Overall for £14.99 for a box of 45 of these it's a real bargain as you can spend a lot more for switches that frankly are either the same, or indeed inferior to these!Really very impressed indeed, highly recommended without any shadow of doubt.

I bought Glorious Pandas and honestly I like these Lavender Akko's better. There is barely any difference between them feel or sound wise. That's after I had to lube the Pandas because they were soo scratchy. These don't even need lubed. They come really well packaged and the colour is lovely, not that you ever see it unless you have crystal keycaps.They were my first switch purchase and I wish I had just bought 6 packs of these instead of trying any others. At first I thought they could be a little heavier but upon purchasing the chocolate rose's I see that any heavier becomes taxing on the fingers.100% recommend to anyone in the market for a tactile switch.

I decided to upgrade my mechanical keyboard with new keys and thought hey why not experiment with switches. Because I am a bit of an idiot, I didn't realise that I have very similar feeling/sounding tactile switches already (I bought the purple ones) and there isn't much difference in that department but I had fun swapping them out as a project. One thing I noticed is that they are better quality than the ones already installed in my keyboard (which were buggers to get out without breaking) and they are very durable for a novice like me to be yanking around.I'd recommend buying a separate keyboard tools kit, although the tool they come with is fine, you're less likely to have an issue with better tools.If you're looking to upgrade then I'd recommend these as a starter kit. I'm likely to look at a different type of switch next upgrade but I'll deffo consider buying this brand again.

When looking at reviews on which switch to buy from AKKO, as they are so easily available on Amazon compared to having to buy from independent seller sites and the like, I was expecting a decent product when I chose the Jelly Whites. To put it bluntly, these switches are not just good, but Holy Crap amazing, for the price at least.These switches are ominously smooth, I haven't even bothered to lube mine as I quite enjoy the acoustic profile out of the box and these do not need to be any smoother, at least for me. They of course have a clear polycarbonate top and bottom housing and a POM dustproof stem (which allows for minimal stem wobble) and although this switch has a rather light actuation force and short pretravel before actuating, they do include a long 22mm spring inside, this makes for an interesting typing experience and a pretty unique sound, at least in my opinion. When unlubed, these produce a slightly clacky, muted sound and they are just very pleasant to use. Please do not hold back on buying these, they are amazing for the price and I'd recommend to anyone.
