I've been using HMX's Hyacinth V2's for a couple of months now. The hype is real, HMX is just on an entirely different level. Can't wait to see what they bring to the table in terms of tactile switches.

Agreed. I am really disappointed about this. I was so excited to try different switches to figure out what I want, but when you ask them send you a link to clackify in which you have to spend a bit of $$ just to test different ones.

it would be nice if you included a close up of the factory lube with a little more light, also the lube on the springs is pretty important to reduce ping. just a little more insight into the factory lubing would be nice, for those of us who dont feel like relubing or even opening them

@hermanstrauss3 ай бұрын
Oh, I had no idea they came in a heavier variant too. I had a sample of the original, lighter one, they were definitely too light for me. And not gonna lie, I like a good clack, but these might be even too loud for me (subject to build, of course!) :D.

@@robmarth2226 100%, it was VERY hard to distinguish between xinhai, sunset gleam, and blue topaz though. Between the 3 sunset's were the clackiest. Blue Topaz was SLIGHLTY lower pitch (barely noticable), and xinhai's were bright, good high-medium pitch, stupidly smooth, but still soft enough to be clacky but not overbearing like a gateron cj would be. Overall it's my current favorite switch but if I didn't have them all side by side you wouldn't really notice a difference at all

@@Xe054i have the morandi’s and don’t like them so to me the xinhai is better in every way, that said, they’re not super comparable. Xinhai sound WAY more full, they’re smoother, they’re louder, they are clacky (while Morandi are about as far from clacky as you can get), all around I think they are miles above the morandi’s but I’m also the only person I’ve seen that doesn’t like them so take that for what it is

Hey so I ordered the Emo's, the Hyacinth V2s, and the Xinhais. The Emo is the highest sound profile, next is the Xinhai and then Hyacinths with the deepest sound (most full/bold sound) and the heaviest bottom out. As for the feel, the Hyacinths feel better to me, but that might be just because I'm used to a heavier switches as of late. Honestly, all three of these are amazing and I'm having a hard time deciding which I like the most. Sound wise it's the Emos. Next I want to try the Cheeses.
