SALE WILL BE 1 DAY BACK, April 5 to 9.
Also made a mistake with the blacks. They are heavier. I was comparing actuation force

[bismuth]

Your typing and typing cadence is unmatched. It is so satisfying and uniform. Im not sure what it is. I think its stable cadence. I could watch and listen for longer for sure lol

[wuuna]

thank you for these reviews. always gotta love some clacky switches

[mattngo]

always great to see your videos nearLucid!

[patrikmedia]

A bit off topic, but why do you render the black bars into your videos? Because for anyone using an ultrawide screen wanting to view the video in fullscreen will have a bad experience since there will be black borders around the video instead of filling the screen completely (unless you use 3rd party browser extensions that let you crop in on the content). It's always best to render videos in their original aspect ratio and not adding black bars to get a 16:9 ratio. Unless you have other reasons behind it that are worth the trade offs?

This is usually a rookie mistake but your videos are actually well made, so it's strange to see you doing this in all your videos. Just curious to know the reason behind it.

When he mentioned they sounded similar to MX blacks I picked some up. I have to say, in the sound department, they do have that full clack type sound the mx blacks have, which is nice. The downside is I found them rather scratchy, even after lube and wasn't fond of the springs, which I felt were progressive.

[fomo]

I totally agree with you, to an avid user of a cherry mx black as myself, I consider this as an alternative, I like the solid and high-pitch sounding switches like this ones, I don't like the sp star meteor whites because it rattles even i filmed it

[fligy]

DUDE YOU GOT THAT PURPLE MR SUIT GG MAN

[elii]

yummy, funny to see so many of sp-stars full-nylon switches being more high pitched despite the nylon housing. I experienced their Dark Magic Girl switches to also be fairly high pitched despite the full nylon housing so maybe its something with the blend used?

[apapodnac]

do you have thoughts comparing these to their meteor whites?

[blayses]

The bent pin on that mx black at 2:14 rubbed me the wrong way

[guyburwell]

Hey lucid!
First of all, I love your vids, every single one has amazing production quality. I love them.

I've been thinking of getting some ergo clears for my next build, but I'm still not a 100% sure about them. Since you haven't reviewed them, do you think ergo clears are good switches overall?

[appleborbs]

How do these sound compared to meteor whites?

[amb]

Been binging your videos for a week now in search for a clacky switch. By any chance, do you recommend any budget snappy and clacky linear switch?

[scufed]

what is ur opinion on this vs the sp star metor whites? is it worth getting some if i already have them?

[picklegirl]

What are the light green and pink keycaps? The keycaps in the thumbnail?

[pokomba]

Dang it they were so close to make a Patrick switch

[bismuth]

I do not believe MX black or SP-Star blue pink switches are high pitched. I just think your selection of keyboards has made you believe they are.

[okayzimbabwe]

Any word on what time the DROP sale is?

[potatavious]

how would you compare these to other sp star swithces, or jwick blacks/alpacas?
