How it sounds
medium-thockyFrequently asked
Are Gateron Chocolate Smoothie switches lubed from the factory?
Yes. They ship pre-lubed, which is a big part of why the travel feels so smooth straight out of the bag. Most people can run them stock without hand-lubing.
How strong is the tactile bump?
It is a light, rounded tactile event rather than a sharp one. You feel a clear cue at the top of the stroke, but it never fights you the way a heavy tactile does, which makes these comfortable for long typing sessions.
What makes the full-POM housing special?
A POM top, bottom and stem gives a softer, more muted acoustic and a slick, self-lubricating travel. Here it lands more neutral and buttery than the deep, marbly signature POM switches are often known for.
