the tactility made pressing/clicking on the switch faster so it’ll be better for typing but I’m sticking to linear as the smooth feel is what I prefer Gateron Ink Black V2 one of the community’s favourite linear switches, is now available on Ashkeebs Enjoy the smooth keypress and thocky sound that these amazing linears produce. Also, coming from a smooth linear such as the black inks, the tactility of the u4t was a new feel. The springs on these switches have a black coating to help reduce spring.

Lubing it with krytox 203g0 will make it sound a bit deeper, but I do think that it’s not much different with stock u4t. Gateron Ink switches come in 5 different colors each featuring a color matched housing made from a new type of plastic. The boba u4t on the other hand has a louder sound signature, it still “deep” in it’s own way, but it’s a bit higher pitch. I’ve heard many reviewers said that it is so deep that it is muted, which is very much true if you lube and film them properly. I also have black skylight keycaps on the way too.

I went with black and ordered some gateron black ink v2s. Mech Keys Drop ALT High-Profile Barebones Keyboard.

They sport a proprietary plastic mix not seen before in Gateron’s switches, which has helped the switch become well-known for its stock smoothness and bassy accoustics.
