DROPHalo True Mechanical Keyboard Switches - Plate Mounted, Tactile, 60g, Cherry MX Style, Quiet Switches, by Kailh (Halo True, 90 PCS)

Installed in a Glorious GMMK TKL hotswappable keyboard. As someone who has only used MX Browns and MX Silents in the past, these were a major step up in keyfeel and sound.To get the negatives out of the way first, (at least in this specific chassis) these switches have spring ping. Like, A LOT of it. A whimsical, absurd amount of it. Also, the tactile bump has the slightest hint of scratch to it, but a simple lube job would fix this and then some.These are more tactile than, say MX Browns. The tactility is definitely noticeable, but not over the top or too alien-feeling or anything like that. It's the exact kind of tactile feedback that I've been looking for, granted they can definitely benefit from being lubed, as I already said.Besides the stated pinginess, these switches have the potential to sound beautiful. Stock, mounted in an unmodded GMMK, they have a slight thocc factor, but they are a little bit higher than I would want.A unique (I think?) feature that these switches have is that the top housing has a light pipe kind of protrusion that sticks down through the bottom housing, to better carry up the light from those LEDs that sit flat on the PCB. For the RGB fanatics out there, this is a fantastic feature. BUT this makes these switches incompatible with the LEDs that pop up through the switch.Overall, after the first day of use, I love these switches and am excited to use them more. The 78g bottom out weight feels perfect for typing, but it is a bit stiff when it comes to gaming. I will probably spring-swap and lube these switches. But stock, as they are, they're an excellent starting point.Also, they make Holy Pandas. If you want those.

These are some of the nicest tactile switches you can get right now. Feel pretty smooth stock, although there's a bit of spring ping and scratchiness on the downstroke, so it's worth it to lube these. Tactility is very nice and strong, a bit more rounded than I was expecting but still very nice. Switches also sound great when lubed, very thock-y sound. They are on the heavier side, so I would be wary about purchasing these for gaming, even the Halo Clears. If they weren't an extra $10 on Amazon rather than Drop, these would be a must buy. Overall, very nice tactile switches with a good sound, just make sure to lube them.

This is a very solid mid-tier tactile switch. The bump is right at the top and is moderately pronounced. It’s not too heavy, but it’s still noticeable. The defining feature of these switches however, is their heavy bottom out. I read somewhere that it takes around 100g to fully depress these switches past actuation. I’ve seen this as rather divisive since some people miss the satisfying clack of a bottom out, but it also promotes healthier and softer touch typing. I’m addition, they come at a good price and are from a reputable merchant. I absolutely recommend these to people trying to branch out beyond traditional Cherry/Kailh/Gateron switches.

My Drop Alt (high profile) came with Cherry MX Blues, so I was really accustomed to a very loud, light tactile switch. The Halo Trues almost feel linear compared to MX Blues. Way smoother and quieter. The spring is also heavier and really helps from bottoming out. The heavier spring also helps from accidental key strokes while typing and gives a very satisfying THOCK. Halo Trues came un-lubed and there is definitely a spring ping so a little krytox will go a long way.Now the real reason most people get these is to make HOLY PANDAS. all you need is a housing and spring from the yok trash panda and the stem from the halo trues. will be making mine soon.

I spent a lot of time researching and looking at keycaps online. After trying out my friends 62g Zealios I learned that I really enjoyed tactile switches over linear switches. Coming from Cherry reds, I thought that 60g was going to be heavy and difficult to use for gaming but that is not the case at all. The tactile bump is nice and noticeable, the travel is perfectly smooth and these are much more affordable then Cherry clear or Zealios switches (nearly half the price.)If you do not have the luxury of trying multiple switches before building a keyboard but are in the market for tactile switches that require a little more force I would highly recommend picking these up. Works perfectly for your own custom keyboard at a fraction of the cost of the more known name brand switches. If you ever want to upgrade again you already have part of what you need to make the infamous Holy Panda switches.

I have used mechanical keyboards for quite some time. Started with the typical gaming mid-range board with cherry mx keys. While cherry mx has held itself to a high standard of quality that doesn't mean others haven't as well. I've used Halo True (kaihua) switches prior and wanted to give these a go on a new custom mech for work. They have a nice subtle tactile feedback and are not annoyingly clicky like cherry blues. When lubed and properly maintained these keys are a joy. The primary difference between they True and Clears is the spring weight and it is realistically a marginal difference. They sport a full clear switch housing so if your keyboard or pcb supports rgb or per key lighting they will illuminate nicely rather than just have a silhouette of glow like an opaque switch. these switches are 3 post so they do not have the two extra posts for pcb mounted applications. That only aids in keeping good alignment when soldering etc. Since these were for a hotswap build that was of no consequence. If you are coming from a mid/low tier budget mech and are looking into the rabbit hole that is r/MK then these will not disappoint.

Reemplazaron los Gateron Brown originales de un teclado Womier K98. Los Brown son táctiles y tienen buena sensación. Los Halo Clear son visualmente geniales, ya que son blancos y transparentes, lo que facilita que el color se difumine muy bien en el teclado, sin que se vea el LED directamente a través del switch, pero dejando que todo el switch se ilumine.Son bastante duros, pero no llegan a la sensación de un Cherry Black. Siguen siendo táctiles, por lo que la sensación de "bump" es agradable.

The media could not be loaded.  Using these on my Womier K87 with DROP Artifact keycaps. They have an interesting feel, not sure how to explain it but it's drastically different from your average tactile switch. If you're coming from switches like Gateron browns, these are much, much heavier, and are really hard to bottom out which I personally like. They also have a deeper sound than Gaterons. Although they are heavier, light typing is still quite easy on these as they're quite responsive. Packaging is awesome with a sleek minimalistic box and switches on plastic sliders. Stock switches can be a little scratchy, definitely recommend lubing these. Zero issues with any of these switches in terms of functionality. All in all I'm really happy with these.

No doubt the quality and fit-n-finish is great but the feel of the switch is highly subjective. If you like MX clear switches this is good alternative! If you like a strong tactile feel, this is the switch for you.

Harvest the stems for a frankenswitch, but for the price there are MUCH better switches available if you are just looking to use out of the box e.g. white jades, u4ts, kiwis.

I bought these to make my first custom compact gaming keyboard, they are awesome quality switches! You can feel the difference between a keyboard with standard factory switches and a custom keyboard with good quality switches. These switches do require quite some force to click and even though it may not be noticeable at first, if you were used to cherry mx switches for example that require 45g of force, these switches which require 65g of force with a 100g bottom out, MIGHT fatigue your fingers at first, especially if you play FPS type games. Other than that, I would recommend them 100%
