Comments on Taro N Sweet Potato V2 switches | Comments on MMD Princess Linear Ultra switches |
Building on the legacy of our bestselling 2024 switch, Taro N Sweet Potato V2 delivers the same buttery smoothness you loved with some refinements. Manufactured by Keynation, BSUN's new subsidiary, these linear switches feature a diffuser for all the RGB lovers and a 52g spring for a lighter typing experience than V1. The hard plastic diffuser introduces a subtle clack on bottom-out, complementing the signature deep, thocky sound profile – Keebz N Cables. | The MMD Princess Ultra Thock switches are the latest variant of the MMD Princess Series and were specially designed and manufactured for the Bridge75 keyboard. As usual with MMD Princess, the switches type very well and have an even deeper sound than the Princess V4 – Monacokeys. Produced by the latest mold, the new Princess Ultra switch offers smoother and more consistent typing feedback. We've also improved the factory lubrication and bottom material, elevating the "thock" sound profile to a new level – qwertyqop. |
