Akko Rosewood Switch for Mechanical Keyboard, Linear Switches, 5 Pin 40gf, RGB LED Slot, MX Key Switch for DIY Kit/Gamer Barebones Keyboard (45 Pieces, Rosewood)

Build quality is impressive, with consistent keystrokes and minimal stem wobble. They feature a custom Nylon Pro Stem, PA12 top housing and a PA6 bottom housing. These materials are the reason for the low-pitched thockiness. These Linear switches sound amazingly thocky from the factory, which sound even better when hand Lubed. They feel buttery smooth to type on without fatigue due to having a very light, but long spring inside them similar to HMX switches. I would definitely recommend to users who want that deep thocky sound you won't be disappointed.

I'm new to mechanical keebs and modding, but I've done a lot of research and know I like the sound of deep thoccy switches, so I wanted to try these new Rosewood ones out. At the time of purchasing, no one else had reviewed these, so I thought I'd make the extra effort to give you a video and photos of what these switches are like. Overall thoughts: 1. They're really quiet, especially in comparison to the blue/grey switches that came with my keyboard. They don't have as much "bounce and click" feel that the blue/greys have, but those can get very noisy; the sound of the Rosewood is much quieter, creamy and thoccy to me. 2. Bear in mind you only get 45 switches so you can't fill a whole keyboard with one pack. I wasn't prepared to spend over £40 to get 2 packs, so I have just chosen to swap out a few of the most used buttons on my keyboard for now. 3. I'm a bit miffed that the price has dropped since I bought them, but such is life. Hold out for a deal, I guess! 4. The packaging is nice - I like that each switch comes in its own vacuum packed pocket to protect the legs, and it gives you somewhere to put your old switches too. I hope you found this review helpful!

Easy to switch and nice creamy sound. A bit on the quiet side, unlubed.

Fantastic switches, sound and feel perfect

Very good switches for the money, they arrive lubricated, which is nice for such a small price, they sound great, quiet and pleasant sound.

They sound great stock. Much thocc. Would definitely recommend for beginner builds if you want some great sounding stock linear switches. The switches were easy to install and fit securely. I’ve noticed Akko have been improving their switches as of late and I’m happy to see that the factory lubing quality has improved, so I’m glad I gave these a try.

These are my first Akko switches and I am absolutely in love. They sound wonderful and were easy enough to install onto my GMMK2 keyboard. I've now bought two boxes of these and I'm tempted to try out some other switches. Highly, highly, recommended.

I got the Akko rosewood and although you only get 40, I can say they these are well worth the money. They are butter smooth and very thocky I recommend 👍 combined with thicker pbt keycaps just amazing!

Akko Rosewood comptent parmi les switchs les plus "thocky" sur le marché. Très très recommandé si vous cherchez le son un peu muté et profond que l'on décrit comme "thock". Par contre attention, si vous compter utiliser la lumière RGB de votre clavier, la lumière sera rose/rouge si vous utilisez le blanc et sera teintée rose/rouge si vous utilisez une autre couleur.

Wer einen tiefen, creamy und thocky Sound sucht für den sind die Rosewood Schalter die perfekte Wahl. Verglichen mit anderen deep thocky Schaltern sind diese etwas leiser daher würde ich es nicht empfehlen wer einen lauten "thock" Sound sucht. Das Tippgefühl ist sehr angenehm und kremig. Sind sehr gut vorgeschmiert, ich konnte kein Kratzen feststellen. Für den Preis gibt es derzeit keine besseren deep thocky Schalter auf dem Markt.

Sounds lovely pre-lubed. Absolute heaven if you're looking for thock.

i expected a bit more cause of the hype, it does sound nicely deep but the switch itself feels low quallity to me idk. still good

Vengo de usar los clásicos Cherry Brown que eran en su momento lo más silencioso que existía y el cambio ha sido bestial, en todo momento desde que me estuve buscando switches para mi nuevo teclado quería que fueran aún más silenciosos sin perder la gracia del sonido típico de los teclados mecánicos y estos switches son el balance perfecto. Un tacto super suave, ya vienen lubricados lo cual te ahorra UN MONTÓN de tiempo, y vienen bastante bien, ya que yo pensando que no, abrí un switch y lo lubrique nuevamente un poco y la diferencia es mínima, así que si te quieres ahorrar el lubricar estos son ideales. Además que la respuesta es bestial, a comparación de mis anteriores, es bastante más rápido e instantaneo. Si en un futuro me monto otro teclado, sin duda volvería a pillarme estos mismos switches.
