Share
Hey there, keyboard enthusiasts! Today, I want to talk to you about an amazing piece of tech that's been making waves in the keyboard world - the GATERON Full POM Low Profile Magnetic Jade Pro Switch Set. Trust me, once you get to know about these switches, you'll be just as excited as I am!
Let's start with the fact that these are the first full POM magnetic switches out there. And what does that mean for you? Well, it means you're getting a HIFI low profile magnetic switch that gives you a typing feel as light as a feather. Seriously, when you start typing on a keyboard equipped with these switches, it's like your fingers are just gliding over the keys with barely any effort. It's a premium magnetic switch experience that's hard to beat.
Now, the low profile design of these switches is something really special. They're slim and graceful, and they manage to bring that high-profile switch typing feel while being slim and convenient. The short travel distance means that the keys trigger really fast. So, whether you're typing up a storm for work, chatting with friends, or gaming your heart out, these switches keep up with your speed and give you that instant response you need. It's like they know exactly what you want to type before you even fully press the key!
One of the standout features of the GATERON Full POM Low Profile Magnetic Jade Pro Switch Set is the full POM material. POM, or polyoxymethylene, is known for its excellent properties. It has better self-lubrication and friction resistance compared to other materials. This means that not only do the keys feel smooth when you type, but they also last longer. You don't have to worry about wearing them out quickly, even if you're a heavy typist. These switches are built to withstand the test of time and countless keystrokes.
The 18mm customized spring is another aspect that really enhances the typing experience. It provides a strong rebound, so when you press a key, it bounces back just right. This gives you a satisfying typing feel that makes you want to keep on typing. It's like the spring is working in harmony with your fingers, giving you that perfect amount of resistance and then bouncing back to let you type the next character smoothly.

Oh, and let's not forget about the DIY light guide pole. This is such a cool feature! You can customize the light to follow your heart's desire. Whether you want a soft glow or a bright, eye-catching light show under your keys, you can make it happen. It adds a whole new level of personalization to your keyboard setup. You can match the lighting to your mood, the theme of your room, or just whatever you think looks cool. It's all about making your keyboard uniquely yours.
The back-cover design of these switches is also worth talking about. It produces a HIFI sound that's pure and crisp. The back-cover structure, along with the arch stem bottom design and the echo route inside, all work together to create that amazing sound. When you type, you get this satisfying click that's not too loud but just enough to let you know you've pressed a key. It's like music to your ears, especially if you're someone who appreciates the auditory aspect of typing.



Another great thing about these switches is the multi-hall sensor effect with the responding sides square permanent magnet. This allows for multi-directional hall sensor responding. What does that mean in practical terms? Well, it means that the switches can detect your keystrokes accurately from different angles. So, no matter how you press the key, whether it's straight down or at a slight angle, the switch will register it correctly. This is really important for a seamless typing experience, especially if you have a typing style that's a bit unique or if you're using a keyboard in different positions.
Similar to a dual-rail structure, these switches offer super stability. They effectively reduce stem wobble, which is a common issue with some switches. With these GATERON switches, you can type with confidence, knowing that the keys will stay in place and not wobble around. This highly upgraded stability makes a big difference, especially when you're typing quickly or during intense gaming sessions where precision is key.
Last but not least, the factory lubrication is a great touch. It effectively reduces noise, so you don't have that annoying clacking sound that some keyboards can have. Instead, you get a smooth typing feel, and these switches are built to last. They have a lifespan of more than a hundred million keystrokes. That's right, you can type away to your heart's content without worrying about the switches giving out on you. They're strong performers, able to handle hundreds of millions of keystrokes and still keep on working like champs.
In conclusion, the GATERON Full POM Low Profile Magnetic Jade Pro Switch Set is an absolute gem in the world of keyboard switches. It combines so many great features - the light typing feel, the slim and convenient design, the excellent material properties, the customizable lighting, the great sound, the accurate sensing, the stability, and the long lifespan. Whether you're a professional who spends hours typing every day, a gamer who needs precise controls, or just someone who wants a really nice typing experience on their keyboard, these switches are definitely worth considering. So, go ahead and give them a try. I bet you'll fall in love with them just like I did!
