I recently bought it and it's probably one of the better tactiles out there especially for the price. The switch has a noticeable early bump which makes up for a very satisfying typing experience (and this coming from a linear dude) and you won't need to lube them either if you don't like the process of lubing switches since it feels smooth and and doesn't scratch right out of the box. The switch isn't that loud either, you can hear it, but I doubt it'll annoy anyone around you lmao.
Yeah akko cooked with these switches. The tactility surprised me, I thought it would be light and unnoticeable but it's actually snappy and pronounced while requiring light actuation. Really loving what they've accomplished here.
These are quite nice, but Akko needs to give their graphic design department more resources. The back of the box still says yellows which calls into question if the rest of the box has accurate information.
Just assuming, I think it's due to the fact that they are mass producing these and because they are new. Probably got through QA and didn't notice the error. tho if smart enough, you can just google it and find it on their website and official online stores. but yes its frustrating.
These vs Gat Beers? I have the Beers and love them for being very light and short while still having a pronounced bump, but I just saw these and the shorter travel got me interested
I keep finding reviews of affordable switches that say things like, "In this price range,", and "For the money...", etc.; yet I can't seem to find one that actually says what more expensive options they're implicitly being compared to. For someone new to mechanical keyboards like myself, I'm completely lost as to what a more premium version of a creamy, tactile switch would be.
Expensive would be something like U4T's that can get up to $1 per switch, 'mid range' something like Gateron Baby Kangaroos at around $.50 per. Not a like for like comparison a lot of the time because of things like actuation force and how much of a bump there is (or isn't) but his website lists a ton of switches to make it easier to get an idea what your options are and price points.
I am pretty new to the hobby and only have the Akko cream blue v3 and the leobog ice soul to go off. I did lube both of them, even tho the internet says not to I prefer it. I like the Akkos, but the ice souls are incredible on both feel and sound. Very deep sound. They are a bit scratchy stock so I feel they need lube to be good.
@@damionwebster8399 Are they easy to press? I like the fact they are more tactile but I don't want to be able to easily type another keycap by error, for example cream blue has a balanced force actuation
Akko says the tactile force is 55gf, which puts it into medium category. It's an early bump too...actually, it looks pretty similar to CS Jelly Purple which also has an early 56gf bump...

Akko informed me that the typo was only present on the first 200 copies

Could you make a video with a compilation of just the sounds of the keys? I use it to relax ^.^ thank you for the videos regardless
man im torn between this, cream blue pro, or the lavender purple pro
Suggestion: put the silent sw at the end of the back-to-back sound tests so the audience can quickly tell the differences between the two switches.

Budget switches would be 0.20 USD or less per switch. While premium doubles that price at least. Durock and Zealos are the priciest ones I've seen.

I bought these switches, but I notice some of them get stock a little after pressing them, is this normal? or do they have a fabric defect?
Top 5 thocky/deep switches?
Vertex V1
Moon V2
Tecsee strawberry milk ice
Gateron Oil king
KTT hyacinth
Gateron cap gold V2
linear or tactile? I cant help but think the feel has to ultimately be more important than the sound.
@@Tyreinn yes.. you're right.. I named the linear ones.

Which one is the most clacky in you opinion?
Which one feels more tactile, the cream blue pro o this one?
These have a more tactile feel to them than the cream blue pro.

Heavy tactile?
It's a light tactile switch according to akko and this video.
Akko says the tactile force is 55gf, which puts it into medium category. It's an early bump too...actually, it looks pretty similar to CS Jelly Purple which also has an early 56gf bump...
This or v3 silver pro for gaming?
