CHERRY MX EXPERIENCE BOX, 10 Mechanical Keyboard Switches, for DIY, Hot-Swap or Gaming Keyboards, To Try Out and Form First Impressions, Quality Made in Germany

A good tester box so you can understand which switch is for you. It's hard to understand how a switch will feel just by watching a youtube video or review. It's a shame after testing them i don't know what to do with them. Maybe Cherry should release a fidget toy or something.

it's great, realistically the price should be cheaper but it's still great

Item delivered in a box which in description states and i quote: (Switches sit securely in the box, which prevents contact pins from bending during shipping.) reason for dropping a star :-(However the switches where all over the place and a few pins slightly bent but I just straightened them no worries, I would say they could have a plastic over the switches to prevent them coming out the little slots in box.Overall the switches sound great with a audible click and of good quality. I purchased these to replace some switches on my Rog Asus Animate keyboard to get the clicks, its done a good job easy to replace. I bought these to test them and see if the RGB is also good and they were perfect I'm happy with the build and sound so will be ordering another pack definitely recommended to anyone who wants to try the MX Blue click switches.These Switches appear to be original MX Cherry Blues but I'm no expert

Made me realise I had previously probably bought the wrong keyboard for my preferences, but next time eh!It's very handy for comparing level of noise too. I'd used it to get an idea on if I could get a nice mechanical keyboard for work that wouldn't drive my colleagues crazy.

bought 3 boxes, although the paper box is a bit crushed, and the switches are a mess when out of the box, the pins are still good and useable

Really helpful to test out a selection of switch types, I have only ever felt linear switches so it's great to test out a few different types without buying sets, which makes it great value for money.I would highly recommend this set to anyone looking to experience a few switch types, I learned that I prefer linear switches, and I actually prefer the stock switches that came with my royal kludge.

but that doesn't seem to be the case, they're soldered in. I didn't force the issue.

They are what they look like.A selection of 10 mechanical key "tester" buttons.several were way "squeakier" than expected due to the springs but it's a good way to see and test out how you like your customisable keyboard before sinking the silly-money into one.Tho given the keyboard i did buy, likely worth it in the long-term if you can afford the luxury, and it is a luxury item at that price point.The oldschool dell USB keyboard (idiot that i was, gave mine away) remains the best entry-level i can recommend in decades (almost impossible to find now dell changed their design), beyond that just skip to something sturdy and with minimal gimmicks (check my reviews for a few decent lower-priced options).Ultimately, in terms of upgrades these make for a perfect tester before deciding on what you want in the end.Tho let's be honest. 95% of people will want/prefer the silent red, a few "tactile" ergo-clear/brown ones would (and do) stop accidental key-presses for those who "rest" their hands on their "neutral position" keys (the directional "WASD" or equivalent ones for the gamers likely to be considering this level of spend) or on buttons you NEED to know where the "trigger point" is (arrow keys, grenade, ultimate or jump/crouch/sprint).
