Gateron North Pole Yellow 2.0 Linear Switch
I have been using these switches for about a week and they are my favorite switch so far for RGB, I am a big RGB lighting fan since my job requires me to work in a dimly lighted environment. I did lube and film mine before install, but they were pretty good straight out of the bag.
These were recommended to me by the Staff at Lume.
The North Pole 2.0's are transformative - they make my keyboard wonderful to type on! They are smooth and quiet, have perfect weighting (for me) and somehow they eliminated spacebar stabilizer noise. In fact, every key with a stabilizer is now well-behaved and quiet. I had no idea that good switches could be so transformative, as they take a good keyboard and make it a great one.
What great switches these are! Thank you so much for the recommendation!
I love how silent and smooth this switch is. LumeKeebs made it smoother with the lube. I ordered lubed and filmed which is great if you need a good feel and a silent build. I'm satisfied with my order and I might order again to try put some switches. I switched from a stock NX browns to this on my ROG Azoth.
These switches are smooth out of the box when stock. Stock switches come slightly factory lubed on the rails. If you lube them yourself, just try not to get it inside where the rubber dome is.
The feel of the switches feel a bit mushy upon pressing down, but it’s not too bad and won’t really notice it much if you don’t think to hard about it.
The sound is pretty deep! It’s muted on the bottom out, but going when back up it still has the sound of the OG North Poles.
If you’re someone who likes more of a muted/semi-silent switch, then this is for you!
On another note, since the housings are clear, it’s perfect for RGB lovers!
I have my likes and dislikes about these, but I think overtime these will eventually win me over, but in the meantime for my liking, I do like the OG North Poles better
