Linear Switches
Sound Tests
Linear switches are a top choice for those who love smooth keystrokes without tactile bumps or audible clicks. Whether you're a gamer seeking fast actuation or a typist who prefers a seamless flow, my sound tests will help you compare the differences between various linear switches—all tested under the same conditions for the most accurate sound comparison.
Why Trust My Linear Switches Sound Tests?
I test every linear switch using the same keyboard, case, plate, and keycaps to ensure a fair comparison. Unlike other reviews that mix different setups, my method guarantees that the only variable is the switch itself, making it easier for you to decide which one sounds and feels the best for your needs.
Linear Switches Sound Tests & Comparisons
Here, you'll find detailed sound tests of a wide variety of linear switches, from classic Cherry MX Blacks to modern smooth, factory-lubed options. Some of the switches I’ve tested include:
-
Gateron Yellow
-
NovelKeys Cream
-
Gateron Oil King
-
Cherry MX Black
-
Gateron Smoothie
-
Leobog Reaper
Each test includes:
✔ Typing sound tests with three different keycap sets (Cherry, MT3, and SA profiles)
✔ Slow bottom-out test (conducted with and without a keycap)
✔ Decibel meter reading for sound level comparison (measured with and without a keycap)
How Do Linear Switches Compare to Other Switches?
Unlike clicky switches, which have a loud click, and tactile switches, which provide a noticeable bump, linear switches move straight down with no interruptions. They are ideal for fast typing and gaming but might not be the best for those who rely on tactile feedback.
FAQ: Linear Switches
Are linear switches good for typing?
Yes! If you prefer a smooth and consistent feel, linear switches can be great for typing. However, they require more finger control to avoid accidental keypresses.
What are the smoothest linear switches?
Some of the smoothest linear switches I’ve tested include Gateron Smoothie and Akko Stellar Rose. Factory-lubed switches tend to feel smoother out of the box, but manual lubing can enhance even budget options.
Are linear switches quieter than tactile or clicky switches?
Generally, yes. However, some long-pole linear switches can be louder than clicky switches when bottoming out due to their harsher impact.
Do I need to lube linear switches?
Lubing linear switches can greatly improve their smoothness and sound profile. However, many high-quality switches come factory-lubed and feel exceptionally smooth right out of the box.
