Comments on HMX Yogurt V2 switches | Comments on BSUN x Zuoce Studio Macaron switches |
The Yogurt V2 linear switch is the newest version of the HMX Yogurt switch designed by XLLAB. The major change this time is that the Yogurt V2 switch comes with HMX's brand new top housing with improved smoothness and a light diffuser installed. Other than that, the Yogurt V2 switch kept everything else that's original to the V1. The P5 bottom housing Yogurt switches use a modified nylon with 40-45% fiberglass added. It is a new nylon blend from HMX and by far the material with the most fiberglass added. What it does to the switches is make them sound super loud, clacky, and full-sounding – Unikeys. | Zuoce Studio is one of our favourite switch design studios and they're back with a new budget linear at an astonishing 21c per switch. Featuring one of the most beloved material combo of PC Top, POM Stem and Nylon bottom with a 30% sprinkle of fiberglass for a little extra snap clackle and pop with an extra smooth lube job making them perfect out of the box with no mods. If you prefer a heavier or deeper typing experience you can also spring swap with our longboi springs – Keebz N Cables. |
