Mechanical Switches Color List: Full Guide to Types & Feel – Keychron
December 14, 2024 - Blue switches are ideal for typists who value feedback and precision but may not be the best choice for quiet environments. The above photo is the Keychron K Pro Switch (Brown)
What switches to buy?
Your safest bet of those 3 is the browns - they offer a nice middle-ground of feedback, speed, and sound. Even if you're wrong, you are probably then just 1 step from being right since the reds have less resistance and the bananas have more. And as others pointed out, if you are really unsure, you may consider ordering a switch tester first. More on reddit.com

I think Akko switches hit the perfect spot between price and performance for me. Their newest versions all come pre-lubed and should be good enough for basic use. For starter I'd say Cream Yellow/Blue More on reddit.com

r/keyboards on Reddit: What switches to choose? (Keychron)
August 4, 2024 -
I'm going to buy Keychron keyboard and I'm considering Q7 or Q2, but I can't decide what switches to choose and actually I don't know differences between them very well. I'll be using it for gaming and sometimes long typing sessions. Any suggestions? Also, is there big difference between pro and normal version of keychron switches?

The amount of switches available in keyboards is dizzying, for sure and it all comes down to personal preference. You can see the details for the Gateron G Pro switches on the G Pro v3 page under accessories. The reds are linear, pretty quiet, and don't require much force to actuate. The browns are more tactile (have a slight bump) and require a bit more force and are a bit louder. I've not used blues but they're "clicky" and will be louder still. So it comes down to feel and noise level. The best part is you can change them out very easily. Edit: I would go for red or brown if I were you. When I bought my V6 I opted for the keychron red switches, which for me wasn't right. I prefer a more tactile switch so I've tried a couple others. I like the Gateron browns, which are more tactile and stiffer than the reds. I actually ended up taking a chance on the Keychron Super banana switches and I really like them, though it seems they're out of stock at the moment.

Red or brown. Depends on if you want a bump when you press down

r/Keychron on Reddit: What switches to buy?
January 30, 2024 -
Hello, I am thinking of buying a mechanical keyboard (Keychron Q1 Pro). There are three types of switches from which I can choose: Red, Brown, Banana. I have never tried any of them and I cannot really tell how they really feel based on videos / text. What would be your go-to switches and why did you make that choice? Thank you.

I have seen keyboard switch "samplers" available. This may be a way for you to go.

r/MechanicalKeyboards on Reddit: Keychron Silent Switch - Banana
August 28, 2025 -
Hey everyone,
I just got the Keychron Silent Banana switches and wanted to share my first impressions, especially since I haven't seen many posts about them.
I'm not an expert, I've been using a Das Keyboard 4 Pro (Cherry MX Browns) for the last 6+ years. I bought all of these products myself, and this is not a sponsored post.
First Impressions:
Wow, these are quiet! I put them in my new Keychron Q0 Max numpad, and they're even quieter than I expected. The tactile bump also feels more satisfying than I thought it would. It's a huge improvement for my setup, as I teach English online and want a silent keyboard for use during lessons.
I'm eagerly waiting for my Q65 Max keyboard and Cerakey ceramic keycaps to arrive to complete the build!
Sound Comparison Video:
I recorded a quick video on my phone comparing three switches:
-
Keychron Silent Banana
-
Cherry MX Brown (from my Das Keyboard)
-
Gateron Jupiter Red Axis (stock switches from the Q0 Max)
It's not a professional recording, but you can clearly hear the difference. Happy to answer any questions you might have.
p.s. Apologies if the 'Builds' flair is wrong, I'm new here!
Edited for brevity.

Here is a comparison of the switches. A detail I noticed right away was that the south facing RGB wasn't glaring in my eyes where it sneaks out beneath the keys. I think its because of the Milky color top to the new switches versus the clear colored top to the old switches. It also seems to have a bit more of an even glow in comparison. I'm excited to see what it looks like with the ceramic keycaps from Cerakey with the light glowing through.
