Full POK Housing for Smoother push feel. Optimized housing and Stem for Minimum Wobble. Thocky Sound performance with Special long Pole. Pantone 2025 Mocha Mousse Housing and Creamy Silk Stems. Improved factory lubing – beaverkeys.

The Gateron + linear switch is a rail bottom-out full travel switch. On top of the Gateron classic milky housing and POM stem, Sensy requested Gateron to upgrade the leaf to match modern-day custom keyboards' PCBs, which come with 5ms of delay or less – Unikeys.
