Frequently asked

Are Matias Quiet switches really that quiet?

Yes — they are about as loud as a generic non-mechanical keyboard, which makes them ideal for offices, calls, and late-night typing.

What is the leaf spring about?

Instead of a plain coil spring, Matias adds an internal leaf spring that front-loads a little resistance and eases off as the coil ramps up, giving a more even, stable linear feel.

Are these MX-compatible?

No. These are Alps-style switches and need an Alps-mount keyboard and Alps-compatible keycaps, not standard MX gear.
