Quick Summary
The Moyu Studio Yurui HE is a magnetic Hall Effect linear aimed squarely at the value end of the analog-switch market. With a light 37g actuation, a PC top housing over a Nylon bottom, and a POM stem, it delivers the fast, smooth feel that draws people to magnetic switches without the boutique price tag. If you’re building a Wooting-style analog board on a budget and want a dependable linear, this is an easy recommendation.
Specs and Feel
This is a pure linear — no bump, no click — with a clean travel from top to a 42g bottom-out across 3.6mm of total travel. The 20mm spring keeps the actuation light at around 37g, so keypresses feel quick and unforced, which plays well with the analog actuation curves these switches are made for. The PC-over-Nylon housing pairing gives a slightly fuller, more muted sound than an all-PC switch, while the POM stem keeps the stroke smooth and consistent. Stem wobble is well controlled, and the factory lube means there’s little to no scratch to speak of out of the box. It won’t out-refine a premium magnetic switch, but the feel is composed and free of obvious rough edges.
Tuning
Leave it stock. The Yurui HE arrives factory lubed and feels good as-is, and because it’s a magnetic switch the usual film-and-lube ritual brings diminishing returns. The more useful step is confirming N-Pole-down compatibility with your board and dialing in the actuation points in your firmware.
Verdict
Buy it if you want an affordable, no-fuss magnetic linear for a Hall Effect build and don’t need flagship-tier polish. It’s light, smooth, and consistent, with sound and feel that punch above its price. Enthusiasts chasing the absolute best stock magnetic feel may want to spend more, but for most people building their first analog board, the Yurui HE is a sensible, low-risk pick — just verify your board supports it first.
Frequently asked
Is the Moyu Studio Yurui HE a Hall Effect switch?
Yes. It is a magnetic Hall Effect linear, so it needs an HE-compatible board to read its analog magnetic signal — it won't work in a standard mechanical PCB. It's validated against N-Pole-down ecosystems including Wooting, SteelSeries, Corsair, NuPhy, KBDfans and others, but always confirm your specific board before buying.
How heavy is the Yurui HE?
It's on the lighter side: roughly 37g to actuate and about 42g at bottom-out across 3.6mm of total travel. That makes it an easy, fast linear that suits both gaming and long typing sessions.
Does the Yurui HE need lubing?
No. It ships factory lubed and feels smooth out of the box, so there's no practical need to open it up. Hand-lubing magnetic stems is also fiddly and rarely worth the effort here.
