Very nice and light. Very good for gaming but a bit hard to use for typing as it has a light actuation force and gives almost no tactile feedback. Very good for gaming and decent for typing. Overall solid and I like how they give a nice click similar

Feels a bit too light for me and is pretty loud, but overall it's a pretty decent switch.

Bought my Anne Pro II with these Gateron reds. Coming from Cherry reds, I definitely prefer the Gaterons. They feel much smoother and are an absolute pleasure to use.

Amazing for gaming. Not as scratchy as Cherry reds, feels lighter than cherry reds. But the fact that it’s really light makes it hard to type well and this caused me to mistype often.

FAR less scratchy compared to cherry mx, and even cheaper. Though their light weight may hinder typing slightly, they outperform many switches in gaming performance.
