HMX x 80Retros Volume 0.T 35g

My take on the HMX x 80Retros Volume 0.T 35g: a firm, muted silent tactile with an early tactile bump and a deep, quiet press — not whisper-silent, but heavy.

Frequently asked

Is the Volume 0.T actually silent?

Not fully. It's better described as muted than silent — the TPE dampening cuts the clack down to a deep, soft sound rather than eliminating it.

How heavy is the tactile bump?

It actuates light at 35g but bottoms out at 48g and the bump starts almost immediately, so the press feels firm and substantial despite the low number.

Who is this switch for?

Anyone who finds typical silent tactiles too squishy. It keeps a firm, defined press while staying quiet, which is a rare combination.
