    Love the Gateron Yellow Optical Switches!
  

*by A***N on Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2023*

I bought the Gateron Yellow Optical Switches and they're great! They're smooth and quiet. They're also light to press, which is good for fast typing or gaming. They seem durable too. I think they're worth the money and I'd recommend them to others.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Great Feel, But Noisy.
  

*by L***L on Reviewed in the United States on April 14, 2023*

Used these to replace the originals that came with my TE Cleave, and they are a world better.  The actuation point is consistent, the feel is solid, and I really like them.Beware, though, that these are noisy switches with a solid "clack" on both up and down, the latter of which you can't completely eliminated no matter how carefully you type. Definitely what I would call "clickety clackety" typing. I mention that only because Gateron label them "quiet" and they are anything but. However, by adding o-rings to each keycap this can be vastly reduced, especially on the downstroke, at the price of a somewhat softer feel -- personally, I like the effect and the reduced noise is well worth it.If you want relatively quiet typing, plan on adding about $40 to the price for switches and o-rings.
