Which switch is quietest?

Hush Linear at 42 g. It is the only option we would put on a board used for video calls; Ridge Clicky is the loudest of the three.

Any Cherry-profile set with a 65 % kit. Sockets are south-facing, so there is no interference with Cherry-profile caps.

Both — choose at checkout. ISO ships with the UK, German, French and Nordic legends printed; ANSI ships US.

About this product

A 65 % layout with arrow keys, because the arrows are the thing everyone misses. Hot-swap sockets are south-facing, so any Cherry-profile keycap set clears the switch housing.

The case is a gasket-mounted aluminium tray with silicone strips top and bottom — the reason it sounds solid rather than hollow. Two layers of foam sit under the plate.

Firmware is QMK, and the layout is editable through a browser-based configurator with no install and no account. Wired USB-C, 2.4 GHz over the included dongle, or Bluetooth to three devices.
