Product Information

As well, the noted point above about slight improvements in stem wobble between the Mute Jades and Box Jades also appears to hold true here as well. Great quality keyboard with lots of customization options to make it feel/sound and look exactly how you want it. This board is designed by u/AuthenticDanger and was really fun to build and has tons of layout options which I was keen on at the time.

It’s a great switch for those looking for a heavier BOX White, but want something lighter than a BOX Navy.Divinikey has been a huge help to me and my builds over the last year or two of doing reviews and they’ll definitely hook you up. In terms of overall sound, while the Kailh Pro Light Greens are slightly higher pitched than that of the Mute Jades, they are surprisingly similar in terms of overall volume and the closest comparison out of this initial comparison list. Given that I usually reserve the slots at the beginning of these articles for meta-based commentary about my personal life, keyboard life, or the community at large, I couldn’t help but make the majority of you who read my content aware of this facet of life for content creators large and small in the hobby space.

I do not think this is the norm though with this switch but just a bad combination of things, but I must put it here to detail everything that happened (you know, science). As funny as it may be, though, to some degree I actually personally prefer these minority ‘variant’ switches a bit more as they sound much more like what I would think of as a “muted Jade” switch than what appears to be the actual intended product. Interestingly, I do want to note that the spec sheet has a small region of interest marked as an ‘Angle of Slope of Shaft’ diagram, shown below, that I haven’t felt all the inclined to share previously but find highly interesting in the current moment. So I must apologize ahead of time, even though I planned on making this post I completely forgot to take any pictures, but without further ado let's get on with the "review.On-centre keypresses are ultra-smooth with zero scratchiness or inconsistencies present in any of the switches.

Worth noting here, though, is that the mechanism of these stems operates slightly differently than traditional expectations of those who have not explored the Box mechanism prior. Appearing to show clockwise (CW) and counterclockwise (CCW) rotations on this diagram, it would appear that Kailh expects that the tolerances of their has at maximum a one degree rotational ‘wobble’ which I find particularly interesting given that I naturally have felt measuring N/S and E/W wobble to be more indicative of normal use cases rather than a rotational wobble. I have however had luck swapping the springs an dstems of the Kailh Box Jades and Pale Blues as they both feature the Kailh housing.The 103 third parties who use cookies on this service do so for their purposes of displaying and measuring personalized ads, generating audience insights, and developing and improving products. However, a few months down the road on August 25th of 2021, a “Update with Mike | Summer 2021 Part 2” video was released, in which Box Mute Jades were stated to be delayed until October as a result of manufacturing delays resulting from the new mechanism used.

I believe if you are able to have the finger stamina to type on these switches, you'll find them very satisfying, just as I did. Next to this is what appears to be a thickened bottoming out pad which sits directly underneath that of the activating lever in the Box mechanism of the bottom housing. As well, the top housings have no budge to them whatsoever due to the iconic winglatch style design, as to be expected.

But it did perform beautifully throughout my testing and I’d be happy to give them another run with more games.
