In my experience (and personal preference), Cherry MX Brown are simply the best switches* overall for typing, gaming and everything in between. They may not be the best for each specialized task, but they have no overarching weakness at any use scenario. * best modern mechanical switch. My favorite mechanical switch of all time is the buckling spring switches in IBM Model M keyboards.

I just bought my first mechanical keyboard not too long ago: The Logitech G810, with ROMER-G switches. I have to say, they've made a great first impression. They're light, and nearly silent if you don't bottom out. They feel _almost_ linear, but they have a tiny tactile bump. They're great for gaming, and so far I enjoy gaming on them, although I'm by no means competitive. I went from a little Logitech K360 and I loved that little keyboard, but this is a great step upwards for me. And for the keyboard itself, I love how it doesn't have all the massive bells and whistles that a lot of gaming keyboards do, but it still has all the essentials I need: Volume dial, Stop & Play-Pause, Next & Back, etc. The software is pretty decent as well, with plenty of options. I just wish there was a few extra preset modes to choose from lighting wise. And the fact that I can sync it with my G900 and other Logitech RGB stuff is a really neat plus. Overall, I'd probably have to give it an 8.5 out of 10, or maybe a 9.

I had blues before and they felt just amazing when typing, but my girlfriend could not sleep when I was gaming late at night. That keyboard broke after like a year so I got refund and went for Logitech g610 with browns and I am deeply satisfied. It still has that nice feedback like blues does, but they are not as loud, which is perfect spot for me.

I started off with a razer blackwidow classic with the razer green switches and I absolutly loved it. Now i have the logitech g910 spectrum since they fixed the keycaps and made them normal and I love this one too. Romer-G switches are definitely interesting but the more I type on them the more I learn to love them, especially when it comes to touch typing. The fast actuation and distinct feel of the keys when it actuates overall is very pleasant.

The sound of a blue is amazing. I really like it for typing which I do a lot of. For the lighter linear switches I have a hard time knowing when a key has actually been pressed. But it is true that blues aren't the best for gaming. It sometimes feels slow at first but I have gotten used to it.

r/mechanicalkeyboards has some good guides on choosing keyboards. Word of advice: Cherry switches are not the highest quality ones out there. Gateron switches are almost always smoother, and Otemus are as well, lacking a lot of the scratchiness that Cherry switches usually have. For brown switches, I think that Gateron Browns are the best

Browns definitely are the best for the first-time buyer. They offer a bit of tactile feedback, like in the blues, while also being light, like the reds. From the browns on, if you want to continue buying mechanical keyboards, you can easily choose because of the fact that browns have both qualities of the two main types of switches.

After 10 years of service, I've finally replaced my first gen Logitech G15 with my first (that I've owned) mechanical key board: a Corsair K70 LUX RGB. I chose MX Cherry Browns because they seemed like a nice balance for typing as well as gaming. I like the short actuation but I also really like the tactile bump of MX Cherry Browns. Not as loud as some mechanical keyboards I've used. It's a real treat to use.

I just bought the RedDragon Karuma or whatever its called. Its REALLY impressive for the $33 that I paid. Like its basically MX Reds. The only complaint is that the S and D are already wearing out, and a tiny bit of the W. IDK if that says that I'm using it more than I should. Or that the paint just fades easily. But over all, if your getting a first time Mech keyboard. Get it, its only 30 bucks. And you can get the RED backlit for 40.

Thanks a lot for this video breaking down the different switches for noobs like me. I came into this video knowing absolutely nothing about what type of keyboard I should be looking for to now knowing exactly what type of switches I want. This was an awesome learning experience. Thank you

I currently use a Rapidfire board from Corsair for gaming. It's good all around for everything, but a tactile switch like the browns are better for typing. Nice Vid Dimitry

It does depend on the quality of the key caps and overall built quilty too. You need to take that into account before you blame it on the switches.

(Disclaimer: I'm way too attached to the MechanicalKeyboards subreddit, and I learn about all this stuff because it interests me.) This video does a great job at making the *real* details about mechanical switches accessible to the typical PC market! I appreciate the work put in to make sure that all commercially popular types of keys are represented (at least, those marketed to typical PC users), and to debunk the myths about gaming on mechanical keys. You provided an objective look at the pros and cons of things like the QS-1, MX Speed, and Romer-G, which many people get because they're self-described "gamers only" and want the "best" board for any cost. If I were to make this video, I would definitely explain the subsection of "tactile" switches as opposed to clicky and linear, as you kind of pushed MX Browns to the side as an in-between. This is true in the way that you said it, but the denomination of "tactile" switches is important to showcase, as well. Overall, for a concise video from someone who isn't a keyboard-centric channel, this is an excellent overview!

I would also add a mention of the qualities of Cherry knockoffs, good and bad - Gaterons, for example, are considered by many to occasionally surpass their Cherry counterparts, whereas Kailh and all the lesser-known Chinese brands tend to be notably worse in consistency and keyfeel.

Fully actuating beyond the actuation point (aka "activation point") of the switch. Membrane keyboards require you to bottom out because it registers at the bottom, but mechanical switches have activation mid-way the switch, making it unnecessary and noisy to bottom out mechanical switches

Personal top 3: 1) Topre (more or less any; on some models they offer various 'flavors'; so for instance you need less force for keys that are under your pinky) 2) mxbrown/romer-g (mx if you're more leaned to the typing side, omron if you're more on the gaming side) 3) mxblue (for typing, distracting when I'm gaming)

You don't want anything but cherry or some of it's knockoff. Especially for your first. You buy other custom switches when you know you really want it. (Except topre. Everyone should have a touch of topre at least once in their lives). And you want a more neutral keyboard without "gaming accents" on them. Why? Same reason you try switches. You buy ”gaming accents" when you know you really want it. Thank me later.

I always thought I would like brown switches over blues because blues seemed so incredibly loud and hard to press in videos. It wasn't until I actually tried then out in a store that I realized blues were WAY lighter than I thought, and that brown clicks were basically nonexistent to my fingers. I've fallen in love with blue switches since, MAKE SURE YOU TRY KEY SWITCHES OUT FOR YOURSELF BEFORE BUYING!!!!

This comment is typed on a Kingston Hyper-X with Cherry MX Red switches. Typing on this thing is awesome. In fact, I don't know what people are talking about when they say Reds are worse for typing. They're smooth and light and I can touch type quite well.

Bought a Cherry MX Red switch keyboard for my first mechanical switch, about a year later I bought an MX blue board, now I think I'll be going MX browns for my next one. Think that's a fairly reasonable progression!
