Is this the end of Gateron? Summertime switch review!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 авг 2024
- BSUN. Haimu. Meirun. All high quality manufacturers that are running switches at roughly half of Gateron's ink-based switches... until now! The summertimes are a breath of fresh air compared to the price hype of Gateron's other ink-based offerings, and I'm really loving them myself! Available for preorder at several local vendors; check out the geekhack IC!
(the end of gateron's insane pricing for ink material, that is ;])

The versus sound test definitely helps!
Great video. Thank you for the sound comparisons.
Always exciting to see new switches from Punkshoo, I’m definitely a huge fan of the cream sodas!! Agreed that it’d be nice to see Gateron lowering prices on their switches especially as great cheaper alternatives flood the market. Also just curious, any chance you’re planning to review the Sarrowkeys Bsun x Geon BCPs? just saw those pop up on Unikeys, and I’m very intrigued!
You are my favorite content creator, love your silly jokes too! Keep it coming, man
Lol I thought the summertime joke was al we were going to get 😂 I really like how bright they sound in comparison to the cream sodas!
Excellent video as always. Can't thank you enough for those sound comparisons. I know how long that takes to put together and you are an amazing creator for taking the time to make that come together. Thanks for another awesome switch review!
Do you know if these have any cherry profile interference?
nice switch overall seems like a better switch than cream soda and price it's pretty reasonable
Excellent review! Just wanted to point out these may be the second switch with an Ink stem, the first being the North Pole (as I'm not aware of any others haha) but definitely the first long pole Ink stem. These definitely seem more interesting overall though, the North Pole is very similar to the Aqua Kings :) I have the Keebhut Blue Bubblegum which is effectively a recolored Oil King, but instead of factory lube they also have polished molds. Haven't compared those two side by side, but just for fun I ran the Blue Bubblegum stock with no lube and...just kept them that way, as they were quite good surprisingly...but I imagine lubing would offer some further improvements. Maybe these use the same polished molds along with a few others like the X? Cheers
the ink black switches just have a unique sound that I like. there is something unique about them, especially the v1 inks that I have in one of my boards. the ink reds broken in sound awesome. New gateron inks sound bad now, especially the way that most people lube. you have to break them in them lube them VERY lightly for them not to sound like mud. and unfortunately I feel yours sound off.
I read that the sound profile of these are supposedly similar to BCPs. How close in sound and typing feel would you say they are compared to the infamous BCPs?
I loove the clack!
Do you think the usual manual lubing and filming the switch is required, given how good the factory lube is?
@makermods Do you think that pom or alu would bring out a high pitch sound similar to the CF plate in this video?
As nice a Oil Kings and CJs are, it seems there's so much competition and quality at significantly less cost though
Were the Blank Ink V2s lubed?
Is it 4.50 per key switch? Just wanted to make sure before I pull the trigger.
I just went to place an order for these and minutes later the order was cancelled due to manufacturing defects and the switches are being recalled from all Vendors by Gateron. Big Sad
BASED shout on Oil Kings lmfao
tbh the stems alone are worth $0.55 per for frankenswitching
Hey Maker Mods can you please make playlists? That way videos can keep playing without having to select individual vid every time a vid ends.
Ooh for sure!!! I think I have playlists but I’ll set them up better!
They sound really really clacky. I need to get some
so from what i hear, its going to be a more clacky cream soda, it still has that awesome creamy sound without it sounding foamy, this is def the switch for me
aite aite i'll like the video
First I guess
So I heard there's a ton of tolerance issues..
