Just want a consensus here from this thread. Who is getting the Clears and who is going for the True?
Personally I think I'm going for the Clear.
Honestly, I've never understood the difference. They're both medium weight tactile switches, right?
I mean, the I:C website says the Clear switches "...approximate a mixture between a Cherry MX Clear and a Topre switch." But I've never used a Cherry MX Clear, and I've never used a Topre switch, so that means nothing to me.
Also: "The spring selected for the Hako Clear is longer and less dense than the Hako True, providing the familiar feedback of the Clear switch with long sloping curves present in Topre keyboards. "
Again, I've never tested any of the switches referenced in that sentence, so I can only shrug.
If I were building it myself I'd use Kailh BOX Burnt Orange switches, which I have tested and quite liked. But I am not a switch guy. I don't spend my time lubing switches and making hybrid switches and measuring force curves. So, my order is for the True switches, just because I figured TrueFox layout and True switches would make the purest WhiteFox experience.
