Title: The start of a new video series inspired by Chyrosran22 Cherry MX Blacks Review
Post by: LiquidEvilGaming on Tue, 31 May 2016, 12:28:34: This will be the start of a new series reviewing actual switches as opposed to the keyboard they are on. I intend to go through every switch i own/Ones i have owned and used for at least 1-2 months. Chyrosan22 inspired me to do this as i really enjoy his series on all the different ALPS switches and thought to myself i'd love to do something similar on Cherry/Cherry Clones/Topre.

I do wonder how much a break in period will effect them also,my MX Black board is still relatively new.

It's just a crappy batch.
In my first mech browns was extremely scratchy, to the point were any "break in" can't possibly helps. In my current board on reds about 90% of switches is smooth (and a lot of people describe reds as awfully scratchy).

So, in such MX inconsistency from batch to batch any opinion is futile. Buying keyboard on mx is the same thing like rolling the dice.

I'm sure that you'll have plenty of keyboards to review in the future.
