I love how much attention you put in transferring realistic sound from the switches to the viewer in your videos! From different recordings methods, through acrylic stand / real keyboard test, to details like placing comparing switches next to each other on the same row. A well thought through routine and example that other reviewers should look up to!

I'm a big fan of 5 pin switches so I'd say this change is quite nice in my opinion. All the other changes were nice too but I really appreciate the factory lubing on this switch, big upgrade compared to the Cream Blues. If it wasn't for the pingy-ness, I think I'd like the sound profile of the Cream Blues better than the Pros. This new one has a slightly deeper sound compared to the Cream Blues but that might just be because of the pingy nature of the original switches hehe :) Love your switch reviews! Akko just never misses, and neither do you ;p

ooo, the blu pros sound deeper in the acrylic switch test and the qk65.. its like deep clack, yea that's it !! While on others are clackier than the qk65, maybe because the qk65 is alu? (Or is it not by case material, but the size between the q60 and qk65? Idk) but yes pretty nice haha, man I'm just praying so i can get a new board to my taste after my exams hfsjfh so i can be like you and the other keyboardians by one board atleast haha, anyways lovely video as always

Yeah, for some reason the Cream Blue Pros sound especially deeper on the QK65, but not as much on the others. In person, they sound much smoother and less pingy than the original, and I'm not sure that's captured well in these sound tests. It might be all the foam in the QK65 instead of the case material. Good luck on your exams - I'm sure they will turn out well! 😁

at the moment i have a keychron q2 board with lubed blank inks, but i want to switch to budget tactiles to start and in a few months I’ll probably switch to more pricey tactiles like the U4T maybe. I think I do like the fact that the tactile bump is a bit harder than the original ones, and that it has a shorter travel distance. Would you reccomend other budget tactiles over the cream blue pros, or should i just buy them? Great job at reviewing these switches💪💪🔥
@TAZAKEY

Thank you so much for watching 🌻 Budget switches these days are actually all very good switches objectively - I even prefer some of them to more "premium" options like the U4T. The cream blue pros are one such switch where I don't think you're actually losing anything compared to pricier tactile switches. In fact, going from the cream blue pros to a more expensive tactile may leave you wondering what the price difference really gets you.. Anyway, yes I can recommend these wholeheartedly! I also think the lavender purples from Akko are a great tactile option if you're not focused on long-pole switches only!

I prefer the Akko lavender purple because of the more standard 4mm travel distance and it's also a little quieter which I like. That's just my own preference though. I think these cream blues (original or pro) would be more popular in general. Thank you for the question!

@TAZAKEY
Жыл бұрын
3.3mm travel is definitely on the shorter end, especially if you're coming from a standard 4mm travel. For tactile switches though, I would say that you tend to feel this difference a little less, since most of your sensation should be loaded by the tactile bump! I tend to prefer longer key travel as well, but I really liked these switches nonetheless. Thank you for the question 🌞

The effect of a deskmat is going to depend a bit on the case material/plate material/mounting style of your keyboard, but in general it should dampen the sound of the board and also remove the reverb that you might hear from placing the keyboard directly on the table. It won't necessarily help with with the keyboard sounding hollow, and it won't reduce the ping of switches either.

The main difference is going to be the shorter travel distance of these cream blue pros, since they have a very long stem pole. They also have a very distinct long pole "clack" that you won't hear as much with the lavender purple pros. If those characteristics are appealing to you, the cream blue pros are going to be the switch to choose. The lavender purple pros will have a longer travel distance and overall be a bit quieter.

The short pretravel (and travel overall) might be one point to consider. The tactility is not as pronounced (as the short pretravel dist and 45g spring). All-in-all though, these switches have the potential to be endgame-ish for a lot of people imo.
