The Gateron Azure Dragon V4 tactile switch comes with a large tactile bump and a super short pre-travel. It uses the same stem as the Gateron Type R tactile switch. That being said, Azure Dragon V4 and Type R switches have a very similar tactile feeling. The only difference between Type R and Azure Dragon V4 is the top housing material. Azure Dragon's PC top housing makes them sound clackier than Type R – Unikeys. | No comments on Wuque Studio WS Light Tactile switches. |
