What are keyboard switches?
Every mechanical keyboard consists of keys that sit atop a switch mechanism. These switches usually comprise of a spring, stem, and housing. Different switches offer varied feelings and actuation forces. There are four types of key switches you can choose from:
Linear: This switch type typically doesn't feature an audible click when pressed. What's more, they offer a smoother feeling than other switch types and are perfect for fast typists and gamers, especially fans of FPS titles.
Tactile: Characterised by the distinct bump this switch provides when pressed. Tactile switches do not have to be fully pressed down for the keystroke to be registered, making them ideal for typists.
Clicky: Similar to tactile, clicky switches offer the same bump feel but make a distinct clicky noise when pressed.
Low Profile:Shorter than traditional switch types, these low-profile switches sit atop of the body of a keyboard rather than inside the casing. This has the advantage of making them more comfortable for long typing periods.
