Comments on Keygeek Higanbana switches
The Keygeek Higanbana switches are another clackish Keygeek switch. It comes with the strengthened UPE U4 blend and the PBT+ fiberglass bottom housing in order to achieve that clacky sound profile. What's more special about these switches is that they were made with Keygeek's newest top housing mold. Keygeek modified the top housing mold to eliminate the sticky feeling at the start of each key press. Now, the travel would not be sticky anymore, and the result is they feel smoother than previous keygeek switched with the old top housing – Unikeys.
