GranVela OUTEMU Silver Switches 3 Pin Key switches Replacement Pack 20 - Gateron& Cherry MX Equivalent DIY Replaceable Switches for Mechanical Gaming Keyboard

I was looking for "silent" tactile switches and had been informed these were tactile.... I was mistaken, but for linear "silent" switches, these were amazingly quiet (and called out that my stabs needed to be lubed). They aren't what I was looking for but seem like a great option for linear!

If you're looking for something similar to Cherry Whites, these are for you! I needed something close to Cherry Whites that was MX but also SMD - a small/smoother tactile feel with a nice click. I highly recommend lubing them with some grade 0, it doesn't really impact the tactile feel but takes away some of that scraping, springy grating sound. I used Tribosys 3203.I feel that these were reasonably priced and well packaged - They came in clear cases which allowed me to store my old switches and any spares, as they came in a case there was absolutely no damage to the pins. They also come with a keycap puller :)

on my redragon k589, i swapped my most used keys (with just one pack, there are a decent amount of switches, but 20 is a lot less than it seems when it comes to keyboards having nearly 100 switches alone on a full size) my WASD, Shift, Caps, Tab, Win Key, CTRL, ALT, ESC, 1 2 3 4, and SpaceBar are the keys i swapped, 4/5 only because the height of the switch forces me to Un-Lock the 2 bars on the botom side of the keyboard, otherwise it registers as me holding space constantly, which is the only downside.

I know there are some great silent switches out there (haimu heartbeats hnnnggg), but I desire keeb ~aesthetics~ so I searched high and low for white silents that weren't mashed potatoes. These are it, buy them; they're butter on a board minus the mash.These come with two caveats though. First, the wobble is pretty bad. Not bad enough to be a deal breaker, but still noticable. You get what you pay for. Second is how hard it is to get these boys open. I have a great switch key but they are a royal pain with them being outemus. Personal preference? Maybe. To me it's a con because you absolutely have to lube and film these to get the perfect (no) sound and feel with the slightest little ping and boy do you have to wrestle for it. I would also suggest changing out the springs too, but the weight and bounce back is already nice on these so not entirely necessary.-E

I thought being these aren’t switches made by Gateron or Cherry that they wouldn’t be up to the same that those companies set. Yet I was 100% surprised! These switches are incredible! When I say they are quiet I mean it. I didn’t lube the switches and nor do I feel that I need to but if I did go above and beyond and do that I think they would be one step closer to complete silence.Perfect perfect perfect!
