Comments on Sillyworks x Gateron Type R switches | Comments on Hanami Dango Green switches |
The Gateron Type R tactile switch might be the craziest tactile switch you have ever seen. Sillyworks' goal was to create a tactile switch that doesn't come with any linear travel: A 100% pure tactile switch. The Type R has a super short travel distance which is 3mm only. With the help of the elongated stem pole and tactile bump design, the tactility starts at the keypress and ends with the bottom-out. Sound-wise, because the travel is so short and bottom-out comes too quickly, the Type R switches tend to sound clackier than other Gateron tactile switches – Unikeys. | No comments on Hanami Dango Green switches. |
