Gateron Oil King V2 Pre Lubed 5pin Linear Switches for Mechanical Keyboard (108 PCS, Oil King)

S-tier linear switches. The packaging was great and none of the switches had bent pins. The installation was as easy as any other switches. The switches are incredibly smooth and have an excellent "thock" to them which makes them a joy to type on. If you are looking for nice sounding and smooth switches, look no further.

I had heard of these switches many times before actually buying them. They have great written reviews and people tend to gush over them in any video I watch about them. I will say that I only bought them when the price on them dropped, otherwise I'm not sure I would have bought them. That being said, I'm disappointed I waited so long to get them. They are most certainly worth the hype. Very linear. Buttery smooth. Heavy switch. You're not accidentally pressing a key down with these. Nothing crazy in the sound department. It's definitely the feel that's going to get you hooked. I've used them in both plastic and aluminum gasket mounted keyboards. You can't go wrong with either. If you're like me and the price is what's scaring you away, then wait till they're on sale and make your move. I don't buy the same switch twice, but whenever the price on these goes down next, I will be buying another set.

There isn’t much to mention about this switch as they are a sub-variant of the Smoothie line.They feel, sound, and function amazingly. They also set up into the board with no issues with fit.They fit into the plate flawlessly, and the light diffusion is great, but hindered by the dark housing just a touch.The only real negative is that they are extremely expensive, but overall I loved them so much I bought more to put into a board for a friend.My recommendation, get the Regular smoothie switches as they are more affordable and feel almost similar in terms of smoothness.

These switches are awesome. Great, deep, thocky sound at a great price. They even have LED diffusers. High quality switches and they sound amazing in my Lucky 65. Would purchase again at the price point.

9/10 - I like my RGB on keyboards, so 1 point is knocked off.Switches feel smooth and heavy. I have a heavy hand when it comes to typing and the lighter gaming linear switches induced more typos for me. These feel very good and the deep thocky sound profile hits the spot. As I am typing this, I can't help but smile at the sound of marbles or dominoes being shuffled around.Only downside is that it does not allow light to passthrough it's solid black housing except for a small hole at the bottom (south). You will need south facing or side keycaps for RGB to shine through and even than the light is very dim. I do know that this design is intended, but this is a personal preference. I will be trying the Milky Yellow Pros soon to see if it allows more light at the sacrifice of a brighter sound.

Light doesn't really shine will on these. I tried using on north-facing lights keyboard and it doesn't work with south-facing shinethrough keycaps unlike my other switches that allow more light to pass through.Switches are very lightly lubed from the factory. I ended up applying more lube on all of my switches and they sound and feel a lot better.These are very expensive for the small amount of lube they come with. Should have more in it as I don't think the value is worth re-lubing them for the price.

Wow. Worth the price. It’s just what I was looking for. The perfect blend of smoothness, tactile feedback (just the right amount of resistance when pressing down on the keys), creaminess, and deep thocky sound all in one. Amazing typing experience.

Lives up to the hype. Very smooth silky thock switches. Got them on prime day sale for about $55 and is 100% worth it.
