Comments on Keygeek T2 switches | Comments on HMX Yogurt V1 53g switches |
Keygeek T2 is an OG style linear switch designed by MZ Studio and manufactured by Keygeek. A few features that make them special is: Scratchiness, BUT still feels smooth (?), Super loud and clacky. This is Keygeek's first switch that uses the POM+Kevlar blend, which is a great material choice for a solid and clacky bottom out sound. Both the N1 top housing and the P1 bottom housing are well-balanced "clacky" materials which give the T2 switch a nice, full, and clacky sound profile. The G1 stem and N1 top housing come with a sandy surface texture which is where the scratchy feeling come from – Unikeys. | XLLAB designed the HMX Yogurt switch, which HMX manufactures using its newest stem and bottom housing mold. 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. With the help of the new stem and bottom housing mold, Yogurt switches come with smooth keystrokes and minimum stem wobble – Unikeys. |
