Comments on Keygeek Full Nylon switches | Comments on Typeplus Peacock 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. | Typeplus Peacock switches are linear switches from Typeplus, a new switch manufacturer focused on meticulous quality inspection for every switch component. Featuring a classic Nylon housing blend with a POM stem to showcase their attention to detail, from tighter tolerances, reduced stem wobble, and a consistent keypress. Typeplus uses a "combinational manufacturing" approach by utilizing specialized manufacturers for individual components before final assembly and quality check at the Typeplus facility. By optimizing each part separately, Typeplus is able to utilize the best components from different factories to create their ideal switch – Divinikey. |
