Comments on Keygeek x MZ Y1X switches
Y1X is very smooth and clacky. They would be a great option for you if you prefer clacky switches.
Keygeek Y1X is the new iteration of the MZ Y1 switches. What's different this time is that the Y1X switches are manufactured using Keygeek's brand-new mold sets. When compared to the old Y1 switches, or any old Keygeek MX switches, you will notice the Y1X now has a more solid bottom-out feel and sound, very minimum to no crap noises of any kind, and a more advanced and precise factory lubrication applied.
Keygeek and MZ worked together and created these new mold sets. They mainly changed the stem pole tip, bottom housing structure, and top housing structure in order to solve all the previous issues that Keygeek switches had. This will be a completely new experience with Keygeek.
