AKKO V3 Fairy Linear Silent Keyboard Switch for Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, 5-Pin 50gf Quiet Pre-Lubed Switches with Standard MX Structure (45pcs)

These switches are great! I love my mechanical keyboard but, got tired of the creamy sound, specially when working early morning or at night it is too loud. These switches are the perfect solution, quiet, smooth and good quality.

These are very inexpensive and aesthetically pleasing switches that work exactly as intended. They have solid build quality, are as responsive as you'd expect, and have a solid spring weight to them. You're not shelling out tons for the Fairy Silents, so my expectations align with that fairly well. Obviously these are linear so there's no tactile bump, the bottom out is fairly clunky because of the need to be silent. They feel good for Silents and I certainly prefer them over membranes, but the lack of physical feedback takes some getting used to. Overall they're fairly cheap and very quiet. That's all you really need.

Most quiet switches, and they aren’t mushy. The typing experience is great. I always had mechanical keyboards, but the noise has started to drive me crazy as I’ve gotten older. This allows me to have the mechanical feel with an extremely satisfying sound, similar to the topre switches found in the hhkb type s. I’m super happy with my purchase of 90 of these for 35USD. Would buy again.

AKKO really is the golden standard of budget switches. Their packaging is premium. Their QC is rock solid. And their switches do exactly what they say they will. The sound is very quiet out of the box. A lot of silenced switches, even more expensive ones generally require a little extra lubing... these work JUST fine without any extra work. Great job AKKO. It works.

As long as these hold up, I'm going to say they're perfect. They're so soft and quiet. Exactly what I was looking for. On my RK Kludge 75 they do still make a very pretty little reverb, almost like fairies dancing on raindrops. Is it a woo-woo whimsical description? Yes. But that's the only way I can think to describe the sound. They are very aptly named. But only the person typing on them can really hear them. When I had my husband try it out I stood just on the other side of my desk and could barely hear him at all. If, like me, you try to get your work done in the ungodly hours between 2am-6am and you don't want to disturb anyone, you certainly won't with these. And thanks to the soft actuation, you won't get fatigued on them, either.

Genuinely silent. Bought these for calling friends and having undetectable typing. Great value, they are durable because I've been pretty rough with them while removing my old switches. Smooth and soft feel to the touch, not clicky. Was a breeze to swap with the included tools. May eventually buy the clicky silent ones for haptic feedback.

I have an Aula F99 Pro mechanical keyboard that I love! I wanted to be able to bring it to work with me, but needed it to be quiet ( there’s a lot going on in a small space and clicky keyboards don’t need to be added). I decided to give these switches a shot and so far I am Not disappointed. They are so quiet, and smooth! I’ve only been using them for a little over a day, but so far they’ve been a fantastic purchase! In my video the blue esc key is the original mechanical switch, and the gray symbol key is the fairy switch

I bought these to swap into my existing Akko keyboard as I'll be switching to full time work from home soon and need something that won't pick up over the phone. These came up while i was researching, and they absolutely blew me out of the water. I've used other quiet switches before like the offerings from Cherry, but these are by far the best ones I've ever tried. I've never been someone to be super picky about the keyboard or switches I typed on before, generally preferring the louder more tactile switches, but these are so good that I'll be using them in every keyboard I type on from now on. Anyone looking for a truly silent but still very responsive keyboard switch, these are about as good as it gets.
