Glarses, I need your guidance. I'm Team Tactile at heart, but lubed and filmed Gateron Black Ink V2s swooped in to become my current favorite switch, and then I also spring swapped and lubed some Durock POM Linears and they're also good. I feel l may be straying from the Tactile path.

I have never seen a blue penguin before, so I searched up "blue penguin" and found some penguins that look similar to the penguin in your thumbnail and learned that they're called Little penguins and at this point I'm confused how I went from waiting for a Hipyo Tech Video to looking at Little Penguins.

[@Aertyn]

'Nother fun fact! (I love these Penguins!). You can watch them come in from the ocean to their burrows every night at Phillip Island in Victoria. Beautiful part of the world and it's something I always recommend to visitors to the area.

That fun fact was, in fact, VERY important! I'd switch to tactile simply because of this. My gf absolutely loves penguins. I just decided to build her a custom keyboard and it starts right here with these.

[@Jonas_Fox]

They sound nice. Not "give up my Gateron Ink Yellows" nice, but still nice. I usually can enjoy Tactile Gang Initiation rites for about two weeks before back to linear crispness.

[@diegucci2881]

I didn't care about the switches and I still watched the video to the very end. The way you make videos is very chill and enjoyable to watch.

I really wanted to like these switches, but I just can't. Instead of saying the generic commentary of "they suck", my main gripe was the upstroke that it felt like it was a "stuck" feeling. Lubed with 205g0 and lube bagged the springs and tried another batch (this time with lighter lube--I like to lube my switches a tad bit more so wanted to see if they respond better with lighter lube) and it was the same thing. Apparently other folks had the same experience I had. They will still go on a Penguin theme board i'm going for with the Adelie, Penguin Switches, with Penguin Artisans (still have halfway to go) but in short not my favorite of the tactile group. I hope there will be other revisions on it because.. it's penguins... and aesthetically they look nice if you're going for a frost theme.

Did you lube the legs?

[@videogamedumbass9901]

Personally I am a linear gang member too. My journey first starts by loving Cherry MX blue. Now i am using my lubed Roselios. Seeing this review, just made me wonder, if you have ever tried the lubed TTC tea switches. I think they were aming for a topre feeling when designing the switch. I personally find them very satisfying on my Drop Alt High Profile. it looks like you are a big fan of the ID80 which is frame mount too [correct me if I am wrong]. In short, I think you will like the TTC tea switches on ID80 when lubed (with their weird switch dampening methods.) :)

I'm a member of tactile gang, well i think. I have no idea. I just like when i'm able to feel when i finish the keypress. However linereas are still good, and i can't decide wich i prefer. As of now i am using tactile.

[@DaAngelGarcia]

LINEAR GANG!!! Hehe I might just give these a try tho great vid!🙌🏼

[@thoperSought]

I'm still new to all this, but I think of myself as a tactile guy. I thought I'd love clicky before I got started, didn't really, and went immediately to tactile. since I skipped over linear, I recently ordered a couple of Oil Kings to test (among maybe one or two other linears, and a bunch of tactiles). I loved the sound of the Oil Kings, and the smoothness, but I found I _really_ miss the bump. so, this lighter weight lube approach might be the solution for me.

[@leannezzers]

I love tactile switches and penguins are my favorite animal! That little blue fairy penguin info is very important :3c

[@brunomcleod]

I love penguins to! :D

[@jetjazz05]

Better than a GLORIOUS PANDA? Hmm. 1) glorious pandas hit the spot for me, holy ones are harder to come by and more expensive, I can live with the glorious... 2) I really like the tactility of the panda switches... I am very curious if these are better than that. I actually use gateron speed coppers, I am a very light typer so I miss keys on a heavier switch, even fairly light keypresses on light linear switches don't always register, but the coppers force me to feel the bump which is fairly easy to actuate and 1mm in, but I just can't shake the pandas, have them on my numpad, f keys, esc and shift as well. I just love that chonky clonk...
