[@fops]

been typing on these switches most of the year. big fan of them

[@WitchRegen]

I just built my first custom keyboard using the Gateron Smoothie switches, and they feel/sound excellent to type on. Would highly recommend.

[@Sylanthus]

Ayyy thank you for making this video!! Glad I requested for it :)

[@jammies701]

Nice vid mate

[@BusinessJellyfish]

Do you guys no longer do the free switch test kits? I can't find them on the site at all

[@xAlbo94]

I noticed you testing on the Neo80 now. How are you liking it? Still waiting for mine to come in

[@MarkedinBlood]

obsessed with this switch, wonder if there are any out there with a comparable feel.

[@nicholasdao1201]

Can you make a ranking video for HMX switches?

[@TerribleGamesTV2]

Very interesting camera angles for the sound test lmao

[@QualityScrub]

Current switch of the year for me

[@aar093]

Can you do the new Osume switches?

[@albertko1]

Smoothies are definitely a favorite of mine these days. Nice tight housing and very minimal stem wobble with nice creamy sound and smooth actuation.

[@blainetruth2134]

which sounds the thockiest and loudest?

[@liyming]

he posted :0 also xinhai's amazing

[@DeadCroc]

Is it just me or they all sound the exact same

[@OmegaTempest]

My man didn't mention how the smoothies have basically no stem wobble - lowest from any switch I've tried stock

[@ProgramKiraTV]

too loud for an office environment or not that bad?

[@huunhanle3809]

Even though it's a full POM switch, it's not that loud compare to NK Cream. And I also think the switch is not that loud compare to HMX switches either.
You can use the switch in office environment just fine, unless your office is too quiet like "Silen Hill", lol.

[@manceirvin7068]

Top 5 thocky switches next?

[@boyabundance]

for me these smoothies are kinda comparable to a modern nk cream, much more smoother but with the similar sound signature

[@YoChrisWTF.]

Are these good for wooting?

[@truitt23381]

The wooting uses magnetic switches, so no

[@YT.JNAccount]

I bought some smoothie silvers (:

[@JustinBowsher]

These honestly make my Morandis feel like a downgrade

[@fnvfanMSPR]

Morandis are a downgrade to a lot of switches

[@SarveshNaik5]

I have heard gateron switches are scratchy. I am confused between akko Cream yellow pro or this. I am looking for creamy to thoccy sound while also not being scratchy to type on my monsgeek m1.

[@Darth_Modred]

those are smooth and lubed

[@Zliarx]

Akko are more scratchy
Akko needs lubing
Get gateron instead

[@RedPanda777_7]

​@@ZliarxI agree. I have akko yellow and gateron milky yellow and when compared the gaterons are much more creamy.

[@huunhanle3809]

One thing that I don't like about Smoothie is that: they cling very tight to the Plate/PCB, took me a solid 30 minutes to dissemble them out of my Tofu FA keyboard.

[@fnvfanMSPR]

That's a good thing imo

[@lute_cg]

myne lubed leaked so the switches became super mushy and nonsounding, change them for hmx xinhai

[@justanobody4983]

Lube leaked? What? Stop the cap.

[@lute_cg]

@@justanobody4983 it happened, also happened on some neo white switches on a friend keeb

[@eNHaHa08062]

Need to talk about the awful factory lubing gateron has for this lineup though

[@Strider1Wilco]

Nah dude I feel like they're really thin sounding. I've tried these on budget and high end boards. I wish they didn't sound that way.

[@wtfurlookingat1514]

your case pings like a mf, put some foam and tape in that case bruh
