Clicky, Linear, or Tactile? Meet the Glorious Switch Family

Choosing the perfect mechanical switch is all about what feels (and sounds) right for you. In this guide, we'll dive into the unique characteristics of our clicky, linear, and tactile switches, so you can find your ideal match. Let's get started!

Glorious Fox Switch Specs: Actuation Force 45g, Bottom Out 60g, Sound Level Low

Fox Linear Switches

If you’re just getting started with linear switches for gaming, Fox Switches are the way to go. They’re buttery smooth, but have just enough resistance to prevent accidental inputs. Each keystroke is stable and rattle-free thanks to their precision tolerance design. Plus, their transparent housing lets your keyboard’s RGB shinethrough brilliantly.

The best part? Each box comes with 110 switches, enough to fit almost any gaming keyboard. That means you only need one box to outfit your entire setup. Fox Switches offer incredible value for gamers, providing an elevated quality compared to the average linear switch.

Lynx Linear Switches

Linear switches are often the go-to for gamers thanks to their light actuation force. This means you can hit those keys faster and spam away during intense gaming sessions. Unlike clicky and tactile switches, linear ones are smooth and quiet. No haptic bump or audible clicks here – just fluid and silent operation.

If you’re all about those fast, effortless presses, our Lynx Linear switches are the premium pick. Imagine a marbly smoothness, thanks to its high-quality polymer, that makes every keystroke feel like pure luxury. They’re silky smooth, spot-on precise, and the epitome of refined performance.

Glorious Raptor Switch Specs: Actuation Force 55g, Bottom Out 70g, Sound Level High

Raptor Clicky Switches

If you’re after that classic mechanical keyboard feel with loud clicks and a tactile bump, then clicky switches are for you. Their higher press resistance helps prevent typos and cushions keystrokes for a comfy typing experience.

Glorious Raptor clicky switches have a unique click bar design that delivers two deep clicks: a louder one at downstroke and a softer one on upstroke. This mechanism makes them sound and feel super precise. Ordinary clicky switches have click jackets, which deliver only one click on actuation (yawn).

And just like Fox switches, Raptors also have transparent housing for RGB shinethrough. So, your ears hear the clicks, your fingers feel the bump, and your eyes see all of the lights– a sensory experience for immersive gaming. 

Glorious Panda Switch Specs: Actuation Force 50g, Bottom Out 60g, Sound Level Medium

Panda Tactile Switches

Looking for the best of both worlds? Enter Glorious Panda Tactile Switches. Delivering that iconic "thocky" sound and satisfyingly rounded haptic bump, these hit the sweet spot for tactility and acoustics. Their actuation force also sits somewhere mid-range, making them great for gaming, productivity, and not annoying others with all the clickity clackity.

So if you’re looking for that Goldilocks, just right switch, tactile switches are your best bet. Our award-winning Panda Tactile Switches have consistently been voted among the best tactiles in the gaming sphere, making them a golden-standard among gamers worldwide.
