OArmy Green Switches - what in the world are these?

[Chevy_Monsenhor]

So this year i decided i should give myself a new keyboard for Christmas, my candidate was the Azio Armato CE mostly due to its styling.
It just arrived on the mail, expecting Kailh Blue switches underneath the keycaps i pulled one off and my heart sank, olive green switches, from this "OArmy" brand i had never seen or heard about before.
Who exactly is "OArmy"? Is it a division from another brand or some other brand entirelly?
I've seen people talking about this keyboard coming with this type of switch before.

I'm surprised I've not heard of these. This is from almost two years ago.

Yeah, it seems to be an exclusive switch from Azio or something along those lines, very curious about them.
They are clicky, exactly like any other blue i've tried before, if anything less wobbly, consistency between the keys is on point as well.
Stem is cherry standard and the casing seems very similar if not equal to Kailh switches.

Seems like the clever dual-plate design (one for switches, one for custom cap stabilization) and custom keycap design makes for less wobble.

So in theory it should be good, right? I think i'm keeping it then!

Comparing the top housing of the switch i came to the conclusion that the switches are, in fact, made by Greetech under the OArmy moniker for Azio, therefore i don't care about them and the keyboard is going back.

I mean if you like the keyboard no need to return the keyboard .

I really wouldn't base my decision on keeping a board solely on switch brand. Specially after you said the quality control seems to be extremely tight on these. They have minimal wobble and feel very consistent. When it boils down to it a switch is a very very simple mechanical device. It doesn't have a ton of moving parts nor is it that complex. They typically either work or don't. In this case they seem to work really nicely and have tight tolerances. The main place you might have a issue is the PCB so that would be a legit reason to send a board back. Also most places have a restocking fee and require you to pay return shipping. Taking advantage of these types of places just hurts everyone as a whole.

I have the same keyboard, Can I change the keycaps with no hassle?
