A light, linear keyswitch that is nice for typing and great for gamers looking for something lighter than Cherry Blacks. Cherry MX Red’s linear feel combined with minimal spring force produces fast response times and smooth operation.

Are good switches for gaming but for typing are bad because it fast reaction time, it would become in lots of missclicks

I use my red mechanical switch based Das Keyboard for work. No one really complains about the sound, and the typing feels great-- way better than brown.

My first mech came with these. They are a bit scratchy - it's true, there is some wobble and they are sharp sounding.

This Key is ok. Nothing special but as a stock switch for most keyboards alongside Cherry Blue its an ok switch. It has some rattle and its not very smooth. but its better then some other switches have tried
