## Description

Akko V3 Penguin Tactile Silent Keyboard Switch for Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, 5-Pin 50gf Quiet Switches with Standard MX Structure, for DIY Kit/Gamer Barebones Keyboard (45pcs) : desertcart.co.uk: Computers & Accessories

Review: Unbelievably quiet but still tactile and cheap - I switched over to these from gateron milky yellows (linear switches with greater activation force), and instantly a few things are noticeable - the unbelievable quietness - the subtle but definitely noticeable tactile bump at the beginning of the key press - the pins and housing build quality seems much better, I was gentle so as not to blow my hot swap sockets on the board. - Very affordable, especially if you have a keyboard with less than 45 keys Tactiliy + quietness is kinda like the holy grail of switches for a lot of people who work in crowded offices, and Akko nailed it. I think it is the rubber lining at the bottom of the switches i think that makes it so. Minor drawbacks I know a lot of people enjoy slamming the keycaps and bottoming out, because of the rubber lining, you don't quite get that feeling with these, it's almost like rubber dome when you bottom out, so you might hate that. Out of the box, these are a bit scratchy feeling (which I like), and, I hear that these have about a week or so break in period. But, if you have the ability to lube them, do it, I think that would make em feel even better. Overall, can't go wrong with these if you like tactile switches and if you won't miss the clacks and thoccs. Highly recommended !!
Review: Smooth and silent - These switches are so smooth and silent, I love them! They all fit and functioned perfectly, backlight comes through well and they have improved my typing and gaming experience immensely. Coming from cherry red switches, which were quiet but still a bit clicky for me, these switches are silent and feel great
