Comments on Zuoce BSUN Turquoise switches | Comments on Keygeek Y2 switches |
Turquoise is part of Zuoce Studio's premium range starting at 38c per switch. Similarly to other new linear releases from the studio, it follows the East's trend towards super long pole linears at 3.2mm travel (most would say anything under 3.6mm is blasphemy). Feel: Buttery smooth. Sound: If there is any switch that fits that description of creamy thocky marbles, I think this is it. In a foamless board, it is sounding very poppy like I'm typing on a Leobog Hi75. They're also on the louder end of the spectrum – KeebzNCables. | The Keygeek Y2 switch, designed by MZ Studio, again proves to us that Keygeek has no limits when it comes to innovation. The Y2 switches use Keygeek's newest waffle stem tip molding to create an extremely deep sound profile. The stem tip comes with a textured design, which reduces the contact surface area to eliminate any possible clacky or poppy tone. The PA12 housing increases the overall smoothness and further minimizes any scratch sound that might exist, leading to a pure and deep bottom-out sound profile – Unikeys. |
