United StatesVery impressive switch that comes prelubed. The sound and feel is pretty decent stock. After I lubed them with 205g0 (avoiding the leg of the stem), and filmed them with Durock film. They are now one of my favorite switches to type on. The tactility of these switches are great, and all the leaf ping is unnoticeable. And as always, Divinikey shipping was fast and the packing was good.
United StatesDecent switches with some good tactility but has some serious leaf spring that is very noticeable. Maybe I got a bad batch, but that is my experience with them. Also, just stick with the pre-lube they apply. I tried lubing the switches myself (avoiding lubing the steam) with 205g0 but it completely ruined the tactility compared to these switches stock.
United StatesIt's totally a matter of personal preference but if what you're looking for is a super tactile, cheap switch this is a good option.
United StatesBought these in 62g and they feel great. Pretty thocky and very affordable compared to Holy Pandas. Not a single pin was bent when they came in, and Divinikey was super helpful when I made a mistake on my order. Ordered from them again a week later, definitely recommend Koala switches and Divinikey.
United StatesThese exceeded my expectations coming from linear switches. they have a unique soft tactile bump and the sound profile after lubing is super thocky. Really good switch for the price. Also if I did it again I would probably film some of the switches but either way these are fantastic!
