Comments on Gateron Strawberry Smoothie switches
The Gateron Full POM Smoothie Strawberry is a light linear switch. It feels super easy to press and great for fast typing or gaming. What really makes these stand out is the full POM construction—top, bottom, and stem. POM is naturally low friction, so the switches feel buttery smooth right out of the box, and they actually get even smoother over time – Lumekeebs.
