Title: Cherry MX Brown Switch Review
Post by: ThereminGoat on Sun, 14 March 2021, 10:50:45
Hey all,

No, this isn't a joke nor is it April Fools. While the daylight savings time change today did really mess me up, I've felt that its long overdue to give my take on an absolute classic: Cherry MX Browns. So, without hesitation I bring to you the longest, most detailed, and most unasked for review of Cherry MX Browns that I could find. (Don't worry, I'm almost certain that you will learn something new from this article even if you've been around awhile!)

I'm super glad to be kicking off a second year of the website on an interesting foot, and I look forward to all of the reviews to be written in the next year's time. Hopefully you'll all enjoy it too :smile:.

Cheers,

Looks like the MX Brown hate isn't just a meme after all.

We all know those that meme the brown secretly love it.  I use browns on my work board and in the end they aren't a terrible switch compared to what all is out in the market/wild.  For someone who has no clue about this hobby, most enjoy the feel they have.  I personally went from my first board having MX-Blues, then browns on the board I use at work and leave my linears to my boards at home (home board currently has a set of 70g Gateron x Mito Laserons in it and I love them (lubed and filmed))

Ouch, sounds like someone played a prank on you with the bad scratchy MX brown. Don't worry, try a nice smooth lubed one and you'll see the light :thumb:
