![]() ![]() The Burnt Oranges switches have their bump at the top, when movement is just beginning, and they're smooth the rest of the way. I did get a few Hako True switches to examine and test on one of those little tester gadgets, not a on a real keyboard yet. My favorite board now is one I built with BOX Burnt Orange switches, so I've been eager to see how the Hakos compare. Hopefully this helps someone but if you have any questions leave a comment so everyone can know the answer! Just remember, this switch is not a tactile switch first and foremost, it is a switch designed to brutally punish you for bad typing habits and then rewards you with a nice little tactile jolt if you do type correctly. But it is a great switch to try out, personally the weight is a little heavy and so I await the Hako Violets to come out to see if that makes the perfect Hako switch for me. But these switches are a hard punishing switch that you doesn't allow you to experience a traditional tactile feedback but instead rewards you with a nice little bump on the back end of your stroke as long as you type correctly. Now they are not the king of tactile switches, personally that would have to mean that the community would have to come to a consensus that they are amazing, and the weight will definitely throw many people off. So now that I've been using the Hako Clears for few weeks now without switching it up, along with doing my best to type on them the way Input Club intended, I have come to the realization that these switches are actually quite nice. Well, the Hako switch is designed to make sure that you are punished if you bottom out and like many others here that's what I did, I bottomed out, a lot! But knowing that the mechanics of this switch lie heavily in the spring design I didn't want to give up and I started to pay attention to how I type. So my immediate distaste for these switches were due to the disappointment in what I expected them to be. Now I love linear switches, my favorite board to type on have silent blacks in zeal housings for the ultimate smoothness. So the first impression I got was that these switches were a Linear switch with an identity crisis.īut I didn't want to give up so I threw them into a board and started typing away! And boy did my impression not change a bit, they were super heavy and I didn't even feel a bump. Also, just like everyone else I came to the unfortunate realization right off the bat that these switches were not what I thought they were going to be. Now, just like the rest of the community, I was under the impression of the Hako switches to be a great box tactile switch with a tactile bump where other switches have usually had their bump. Naturally, Top Clack got samples and upon u/Quakemz and u/manofinterests review I decided to drop into the Hako Clear pre order. So when the Hako switches were announced I eagerly awaited for review samples to hit the market so I could decide between the Clears and Trues. Now I have been using Hako Clears on my daily driver for a few weeks now and even though I may not be a fancy dancy programmer or do some other profession that requires hours at a keyboard I believe I have spent enough time typing away to hopefully shed some light on these peculiar switches.įirst Impression and Why Did I Buy Clears? Hello those of r/mk! I haven't really seen many review on the new Hako Clear switch (or the Trues for that matter) and thought I would take that duty unto myself. ![]()
