Comments on KTT Rose switches

KTT Kang Whites are a new creation from KTT featuring updated molds to improve smoothness, wobble, and sound. Similar to their previous switches, these switches are sure to provide a buttery smooth typing experience at an affordable price – KeebzNCables.

The KTT Rose is pretty smooth out of the box but you'd likely want to lube this switch to bring down the spring noise – beaverkeys.
The KTT Rose switch will be a great choice for you if you want RGB on your keyboard as it has an opaque top housing. However, based on my personal experience and comments from other enthusiasts in the community, it seems like opaque housings generally make the switch sound thinner – unikeys.
