Keygeek Y3
Keygeek · switch
Most people frame Y3s as the louder, equally-deep sibling of the Y2 — a thocky, muted-quality linear that's quietly excellent for office work. Consensus is they're great stock and have been cited as the thockiest switch in head-to-head builds.
- +Deep, thocky tone with a muted quality
- +Louder than the Y2 but stays just as deep
- +Cited as the thockiest switch in some side-by-side builds
