Keygeek Raw

My review of the Keygeek Raw: an unlubed enthusiast linear with UMPE housings and a POM-blend stem, built as a high-ceiling canvas for tuners who lube.

Frequently asked

Why is the Keygeek Raw shipped unlubed?

It is aimed at enthusiasts who want to tune the switch themselves, so it arrives bare to give you a clean starting point. Out of the bag it is noticeably scratchier than Keygeek's factory-lubed switches.

How heavy is it?

It bottoms out around 57.5g, so it sits in medium-weight territory — firm enough to feel substantial without being fatiguing.

Is it worth the higher price?

Only if you plan to lube and film it. Tuned, it has a high ceiling thanks to the UMPE housings; left stock, cheaper factory-lubed linears feel better.
