Bought this to compare tactile vs. linear before building my first board, and the variety here is perfect—each switch feels distinctly different. The clear plastic casing on some lets you see the mechanism, which is actually neat for learning how they work.
I’m still deciding which linear feels best for my board, but this tester has already saved me from buying a whole pack of a switch I hated. The holder keeps everything organized and the variety is perfect for a first-time builder.
Finally got a chance to try all 35 switches and the holder keeps them organized perfectly. The difference in feel between the linear and tactile ones is much more noticeable than I expected.
The tactile bump on the browns feels noticeably crisper compared to my old keyboard, and the holder keeps everything organized nicely. I’ve been clicking through them during lunch breaks to decide what to buy next.
Finally get to try all these different switch types without buying a whole keyboard. The tactile bump on the browns feels noticeably different from the clicky sound of the blues. Perfect for figuring out what I actually want to build.
Spent a good hour clicking through every switch and the tactile variety is amazing—the clear green one feels noticeably heavier than the rest. Really helped me decide which linear I want for my next build.
After swapping out a few switches on my main keyboard, I was surprised how different the Gateron blacks felt compared to the reds I’d been using. The holder keeps everything organized, which made it easy to test each one without losing track. Definitely helped me decide which switch to buy for my next build.
This tester is a fantastic way to feel the difference between linear, tactile, and clicky switches all at once. I was surprised how much smoother the Ink Blacks felt compared to the regular ones. The plastic holder keeps everything organized and easy to swap.
Finally got to try all these different switch types side-by-side, and the tactile bump on the brown switches is much more pronounced than I expected. The holder keeps everything organized, so it's easy to go back and compare feels.
I was curious how Gateron's heavier springs would feel compared to my usual Cherry switches, and this tester answered everything. The holder keeps each switch snug, making it easy to A/B test the 35 different types in a row.
