Reasons to consider it
- Recorded as linear: a smooth stroke without a tactile bump.
- Factory lubrication is recorded; sound and feel will still depend on the board and individual switch.
Check before buying
- Check the exact variant: a product family can include different weights or switch types. A linear switch is not necessarily silent.
