The configurator offers three different switch types. What are the differences?
Blue Cherrys are clicky and tactile. Clicky means that the switch gives an audible “click” when the contact is made. Tactile means that on the way down the user feels a little “bump” when the contact is made (a tactile sensation). Both the click and the tactile sensation give feedback on whether the contact has been made and the character was created. This helps in typing without bottoming out, which is generally perceived as very comfortable. Blue Cherrys have a 50cN actuation force. They are also the most popular switch. Brown Cherrys are tactile but not clicky. They have 45cN actuation force. This switch is quieter than the Cherry blue while still giving feedback about actuation. Red Cherrys are linear, meaning they’re neither clicky, nor tactile. There is no feedback whether the contact has been made. This can be an advantage for example in gaming where the same key is pressed repeatedly with short travel around the actuation point. 45cN actuation force.
