Comments on Keygeek Full Nylon switches | Comments on HMX Sogurt V2 switches |
Keygeek Full Nylon switches are linear switches designed by XL Lab. By incorporating a full Nylon switch, the switch has a more unique, clacky sound compared to LY or POM. The Nylon stem with the Nylon+fiberglass bottom creates a clacky, concentrated sound with some noticeable bass – Divinikey. The Keygeek Full Nylon linear combines different nylon blends in the stem, top, and bottom housing to deliver an ultra-smooth, bassy switch – SerpentKeys. | The HMX Sogurt V2 linear switch is the successor to the super popular Sogurt switches which is known for it's full clacky sound, great factory lube, and smooth travel. Compared to the V1, Sogurt V2 comes with the following changes and improvements: 1. The overall sound profile is fuller and poppier thanks to the thickened bottom housing. 2. They feel even smoother than V1 because of the PA12 top housing. 3. New L3 mold delivering great tolerance, minimal stem wobble. 4. Improved factory lubing which is very precise – Unikeys. |
