Review: The best Cherry MX Brown clone. - These are my personal favourite switches of all the ones that I tried. They are basically Cherry MX Browns but smoother and way better lubed with a similar tactility and a lighter, clearer, clackier sound. They are also RGB friendly with that clear top. Exactly what I was looking for, and I was looking for a while. And, for some reason, of all the switches I've tried, these are, by a mile, the easiest switch to plug in and take out of my board. All the other switches I tried were much harder. I'd say I recommend these but it really is just down to personal preference. The only thing that could improve these more for me would be even better lubing.
Review: A few switches not working - very good switches, If your having trouble typing with red switches but want a quiet but tactile switch these are the ones you want. My only problem is that out of a box of 120 switches, On my 85 % keyboard i had five that wasn't working, So make sure there's enough in the box for you and extra for spares.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: are these actually the silent version of the switches?**
A: They are quite silent but i dont think as silent as silent reds no.

**Q: Hi, has anyone used these with Keychron keyboards? Thx**
A: Looking at a few Keychron boards, yes. These are using the standard Cherry MX style pin layout. If you browse the page for your Keychron board, it should state if it is MX compatible. If so, these will fit.

**Q: I cannot see a straightforward answer to the following question by the seller, thus posting again:
are these switches the gateron silent red ones?**
A: These are just the regular reds. The silent variant of these have a black housing, if that's what you're looking for.

**Q: Are these 3 pin version?  thanks**
A: Yes, They are the 3 pin versions

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not sure these are Linear
*by C***N on 9 July 2021*

Only just got these but Browns aren't usually linear. I have taken them apart and looks like they are tactile. Strange that they are advertised on here and on OCUK as linear but they definitely have a slight bump.
