TTC Bluish White Tactile (V2) Silent Switches

Switch Sound

The TTC Bluish White V2 is very silent due to the way it's designed. The tactile switch has a dampening pad inside the hole where the pole of the stem would bottom out which enables the silencing mechanism when bottoming out and the TTC Bluish White V2 has a silicone ring out the stem that enables the silencing mechanism on top out. The TTC Bluish White V2 does its job as a silent switch, however, it has a slight scratch noise when the keypress is off-center but it is not audibly noticeable during normal typing sessions. The TTC Bluish White V2 typing sounds come mostly from the round tactile bump and the dampened bottom and top outs, which has relatively no difference in sound from the average membrane office keyboard, making it a great choice for a silent office keyboard build.

Here are some sound tests of the TTC Bluish White:

Switch Feel

TTC Bluish White V2 in stock form feels smooth but tends to have a little bit of scratchiness when the keypresses are off-center. Although, the scratch is more apparent in the sound than feel. The TTC Bluish White V2 switch has very little stem wobble, possibly due to its tight housing tolerances and dustproof stem.

The TTC Bluish White V2 appears to have a more rounded tactile bump than switches like the Holy Panda or the Gazzew Boba U4T. The TTC Bluish White V2 does not feel as snappy or sharp as the Holy Panda or Gazzew Boba U4T in terms of tactility, but it provides a comfortably smooth bump along the entirety of the keypress, making it a great choice for those seeking a smaller tactile feedback.

Things to Note

Thankfully, the TTC Bluish White V2 tactile switch does not have the mushy feel one would expect from a silent switch.
