Great video! I could never understand why gamers go to great lengths to build a quiet computer, only to pair it with a mechanical keyboard that sound like a bunch of legos bouncing around in a plastic box. Maybe you could do a video showing how you mod a keyboard to make it even quieter.

I caught your video months late (new to your channel), but one of the reasons why I don't have a mechanical keyboard (even gaming). My daily driver is a SteelSeries Apex 150. I was researching to see if anything has changed in the world of switches, and man! I was glad to find this video! Clicky mechanical keyboards drive me insane (a bit of a sensory trigger)! I was thinking of getting a 60% keyboard and a custom key set, and the Gamakay Phoenix might be the clear winner for me!! Subscribed! 😀

The switches with the box stems are literally called box stems or sometimes called dust-proof. I personally don't care about the wobble unless I can really feel it when typing. If you're planning on making more switch reviews, try focusing on what the typing experience is like and make a short sound test. On the switches, they look like they're using outemu molds, and combined with the price point, I'm a little worried with how will these switches hold up in the long run. The stock outemu red, blue, and brown switches are known to stop working over time after just a couple of weeks.

no, they're not called box stems. It's box switches.The reason why they're called box is because the switch assembly is in a dust/water resistant box. They're mistakenly called box because of the stems. As for future reviews, I did a soundtest, but you're right, maybe a keyboard sound test with the entire keyboard filled with the switch im reviewing is probably a good idea.

​@@BootSequence Sure, they are classified as box switches because of the stems, but I usually avoid calling newer switches with boxy stems as box switches. The original box switches from Kailh is what I normally call box switches, like Box browns, or Box whites. I might just be old fashioned EDIT: Because Kailh specifically has box in the name for their box series of switches, it distinguishes that line from Kailh's other non-boxed switches. I know points behind why a box stem is designed, I've just encountered a lot of switches with box stem designs who sometimes call the stems as dust-proof Just a disclaimer, I might have sounded negative or aggressive with my first comment, I'm not very good at explaining my point sometimes
@goonfish
@goonfish 2 жыл бұрын
@@nytalix642 No, you misunderstand. BOX switches aren't called so because of the stems at all - it has nothing to do with the stems whatsoever. BOX switches from Kailh are specifically called such because the entire switch leaf & actuation bumper (a rubber piece, not another terminal leaf) _is literally enclosed in a dust & water-proof boxed enclosure_. Take apart a Kailh BOX and see. The square stems you see are correctly called Dustproof stems, because that's all they are! If you want to get technical, Kailh BOX switches also have Dustproof stems, and again, arent called Box switches because of them. The only difference is that Kailh uses their own specially designed dustproof stems to work with their BOXes & their clickbars.

While you're swimming around in the mechanical keyboard community pool, have you come across any keyboards or keys that feature a half-width CAPS LOCK key? That's something IBM had in many of their early models to help avoid toggling CL on and off when typing, but none\very few of the current manufacturers make them like that these days. I wonder if it was maybe a patented idea that requires licensing to be used, and that's why it's not common. I'd love to get a replacement key for my K70 cos the gap between the CAPS LOCK and A is tiny :-/

That's called a stepped caps lock key. You can't just replace a normal caps lock keycap with a stepped one because the switch for the sepped keycap is not in the middle of the keycap and more to the left in the high part of tthe keycap.

If you are looking for budget silent switches take a look at Outemu Silent Grey (tactile), Outemu Silent Lemon (tactile), or Outemu Silent Peach (linear). If you have a bit more budget the Gazzew Boba U4s is regarded as the best silent tactile switch. Durock also has some fantastic silent switches, like the Durock Dolphin. Recently Akko has put out some very reasonably priced and great switches, they have a number that are silent (tactile and linear)

Thanks for the video. One of the only ones I can see regarding the phoenix switches. I would have liked a comparison against other silent switches along with their price points with and without mods. I can appreciate this is an effort though. For example, comparing something like alpaca V2 with lube and films and without would be interesting as these are around twice the price of the phoenixes. People keep recommending I need to lube/film alpacas due to stem wobble. Then a comparison with outemu peaches as they are similar price point as well as the new heartbeat linears. Unfortunately their shipping to the UK is too expensive from canonkeys so their value drops heavily but as you're US it would be interesting. I have purchased the phoenixes as they are the first switch I'll be using for a solderable PCB so less money wasted if I mess it up and the shipping was only £4. Cheers

no. but as close as it gets. The sounds will come from the chassis. So make sure the chassis is heavy and well insulated.

Dude, you compared a single silent switch with some of the loudest shit on the internet. Like 1/3 of the comparisons were blue/clicky switches designed to be loud AF. What did you expect to happen?
@BootSequence
@BootSequence 3 ай бұрын

​@@BootSequence My point is the title of the video. If you are going to compare this to switches that are literally designed to be loud, then of course this will be "the QUIESTEST." Literally none of the other switches you compared it to are also constructed to be silent. If the point of the video is to show how quiet they are in comparison to other products, you know to support the claim they are the QUIETEST, then you should be comparing them to other silent switches.

Great reveiw!! I got phoenix and crystal, and I was really amazed stem stability and kind of noble typing feel with Crystal. Basically I am silent linear switch guy, started from cherry silent red, and went through many (kailh deep sea, box silent pink, Sakurio, Roselio, and so on). Crystal is far from silent. It's very loud and I can hear spling noise. But I can't get away from typing feel of crystal now...

@@AlmostTom I don't have Alpaca. Sound(No lube, w/ PBT ESC keycap, no hard hit): Sakurio is clearly quietest. Roserio is second. Deep sea and Phoenix are in 3rd group. Phoenix contains light, plastic-chattering like noise with key cap. It's comparison in silent category. Crystal is far louder than all of them :) Stem stability: Phoenix is best, Deep sea is 2nd (very close to Phoenix), Roselio wobbles very much and Sakurio wobbles even more. Crystal is ridiculously stable.

Thanks for this highly informative vid Snows man 👍🏻. i truely appeciate this vid cause i'm also looking for the most silent mechanical key switches for my RGB Redragon Kumara (That same super practical budget mechanical keyboard you showed). i just searched now and found those same Phoenix switches are luckily available at our local online shopping app (54 days newly listed) for $9.62 U.S. (when converted) per 35 pieces (one box). The seller doesn't have the Bumblebee switch but they have the Wasp switch (no specs listed). 😁
