My overall review is 5 star, but the little dip switches that managed to change themselves removes a star. Manufactured in Germany, the most popular Cherry switches series, Cherry MX series, was launched around 1985 and became the switches industry standard.

The KBP-V60GTR-C features dip-switches to customise your layout with additional key caps to match your preferred layout, a key puller to help swap your keycaps, and Gateron Blue switches. But, if you notice today’s mechanical keyboard community, you will find that most users prefer the Gateron for its smoothness because that’s really what matters to them.The Gateron blues have a lower actuation force than Cherry blues, requiring less pressure when you press the keycaps. Gateron not only has greatly promoted the Cherry switches, but they’ve gained a good deal of market share in the keyboard switches business and has been well recognized for its smoothness and cost-effective value.

The benefits of the strong actuation force is more pressure with a stronger mechanical feedback, making it harder to press the wrong key.

On the flip side, Gateron blues sound sharper and louder while the Cherry blues feel softer and more stable. Those who love the strong feedback and prefer a smooth and stiff feedback should look into Gateron Black switches.

Initially it was rather disappointing, but once the latest driver was installed it was quite impressive. The primary difference between Gateron and Cherry switches is, the Gateron switches are much smoother, and bumps are more tactile. The smoothness of each Gateron switch stroke can be best described as: sliding a hot knife through butter. They are particularly easy to use there, but of course they can also be used on other keyboards or DIY projects, such as the ONE 3 keyboards from Ducky.

Great quality keyboard with lots of customization options to make it feel/sound and look exactly how you want it. With the Gateron switches, Glorious has developed interchangeable key switches for its GMMK (Glorious Modular Mechanical Keyboard). The Gateron switches are compatible with SMD LEDs and can be illuminated through the transparent housing.

The Gateron switches are compatible with SMD LEDs and can be illuminated by the transparent housing. Those who like mechanical keyboards, a stronger trigger force will likely prefer the Gateron black switch. For Gateron mass-produced switches, we recommend the KS-9 series because this series is adapted to the hot-swappable mechanical keyboard, easy for anyone to install and change, and also quite affordable.
