Akko Rosewood Switch - 45 piece(s)

Akko Rosewood Switch for Mechanical Keyboard, Linear Switches, 5 Pin 40gf, RGB LED Slot, MX Key Switch for DIY Kit/Gamer Barebones Keyboard (45 Pieces, Rosewood) : desertcart.co.uk: Computers & Accessories Review: Great Linear Thocky Switches! - Build quality is impressive, with consistent keystrokes and minimal stem wobble. They feature a custom Nylon Pro Stem, PA12 top housing and a PA6 bottom housing. These materials are the reason for the low-pitched thockiness. These Linear switches sound amazingly thocky from the factory, which sound even better when hand Lubed. They feel buttery smooth to type on without fatigue due to having a very light, but long spring inside them similar to HMX switches. I would definitely recommend to users who want that deep thocky sound you won't be disappointed. Review: Quiet and Thoccy - I'm new to mechanical keebs and modding, but I've done a lot of research and know I like the sound of deep thoccy switches, so I wanted to try these new Rosewood ones out. At the time of purchasing, no one else had reviewed these, so I thought I'd make the extra effort to give you a video and photos of what these switches are like. Overall thoughts: 1. They're really quiet, especially in comparison to the blue/grey switches that came with my keyboard. They don't have as much "bounce and click" feel that the blue/greys have, but those can get very noisy; the sound of the Rosewood is much quieter, creamy and thoccy to me. 2. Bear in mind you only get 45 switches so you can't fill a whole keyboard with one pack. I wasn't prepared to spend over £40 to get 2 packs, so I have just chosen to swap out a few of the most used buttons on my keyboard for now. 3. I'm a bit miffed that the price has dropped since I bought them, but such is life. Hold out for a deal, I guess! 4. The packaging is nice - I like that each switch comes in its own vacuum packed pocket to protect the legs, and it gives you somewhere to put your old switches too. I hope you found this review helpful!
