these switches are so much nicer than the browns that I had
really happy with these on my keychron k3! I had one of my original gateron brown low profile switches break on me and used it as an excuse to try something new. ended up doing most of my everyday typing keys with these lovely chocolate switches and then bananas for most of the more function-y keys around the edges (I have been calling it my chocolate banana milkshake!). the way the chocolates are designed to focus the LEDs really helps with key brightness, which I know was somewhat of a detractor for a lot of K3 users/reviewers when I was buying the keyboard itself. I didnt super mind the [lack of] brightness before but seeing the difference with the chocolates, its a definite upgrade! sound-wise I really love the softer, creamier sound of these as compared to the gateron brown low profiles. the feel is nice too, still getting used to it but it feels more substantial/satisfying a keypress compared to my old ones, while still managing to feel easy. i have yet to spend an extended period of heavy typing time with them so time will tell for certain, but so far they dont seem notably more tiring on the hands, which is great as someone whose hands get tired easily! overall really glad I made the switch and really glad to have more low-profile options to play around with :)
note for the photo/video, I did end up changing the spacebar to a banana switch! did a lot of back & forth and modded the keycap with electrical tape trying to get the sound better... really like the deep, louder, thock-y sound the bananas have on the edge keys!
