But after lubing, these have a slightly better tone and the tactile feel is more pronounced than the nuphy moss. Review: 茶軸からより硬くしたいなら価値あり - 望んでたものでした。 茶軸から切り替えました。 指乗せても勝手に落ちなくなったのと、クリック感が増して良かったです。 K1MAX(フルを単純にテンキーレスにしたモデル)を使用していて、スイッチは2箱分交換しました。 2箱では全ては交換できませんが私の場合は充分でした。 交換しなかったキーは、各ファンクションキー、insert、半角全角、tab、capsです。(誤タップのケアが必要無さそうなキーが基準です。)これらは茶軸のままにして足りました。(insertは使わないのでそもそも無反応ボタンにしました) 全部変えたい場合は3箱必要だと思います。 本当は青軸使いたいくらいクリック感が欲しい人間なのですが青軸の評判が良くないのと茶軸でもそこそこ感触があったので不満は少なく、バナナ軸は好みの感触により近くなりました。 茶軸使ってて「なんか微妙に緩いなー」って思ってる方には心からおすすめできます。お値段も手頃ですし1箱ずつ時期を開けて買うのでもいいと思います。 お試しあれ。 余談ですが、 insertのような一部の方以外ほぼ一切使わないキーは、スイッチ自体を分解して中の金属ピンをだけ抜くと(バネは残す)見た目はそのままで誤タップしないようになり便利です。 あとどうでもいいんですが、このスイッチをスーパーコーペック公式でずっと入荷を待ってたのにこっちで普通に売ってておい！ってなりました。星は引きませんが誘導してくれよって思いました。 売ってある内が買い時です。 ## Features - Tip The KS-33 low profile switche is apply for the keyboard fit GATERON low profile switch, not for other low profile switch *************************************************************. - [Keyboard Switches] GATERON KS-33 Low Profile 2.0 Banana Keyboard Switches – Gateron custom key switches tactile switches are 3 pin custom key switches made for DIY enthusiasts to obtain satisfying typing feelings with more affordable options as they wish. - [Performance] Gateron Low Profile 2.0 Banana 65gf tactile keyboard switches –Different from Gateron low profile brown keyboard switches, the low profile 2.0 banana key switches heavy tactile switch is produced with a 65gf operating force that is aimed to create unique and smooth feedback. - [SMD LED & Plug-in LED] Gateron Low Profile 2.0 Banana key switch is SMD LED compatible.

I got a nuphy air60 v2 with cowberries. So I wanted to try opposite switches to see what I prefer. the cowberries are light and linear, and the bananas are heavy and tactile. I must say, I like really like these. The heaviness of these keys make the keyboard feel more high-end and it really emphasizes the tactile of the key. With banana you really feel the tactile bump. I tried some samples of wisteria which is like banana but lighter. and with wisterias you don't feel the tactile bump as much (they almost feel linear) because the key is so light. And I also tried moss test switches, and even though they feel similar to bananas they have a higher pitched click on them whereas the bananas are quieter and bassier. So overall really happy with the bananas. Update: I've been going between these and the chocolates. The chocolates feel somewhere in between the bananas and the cowberries. The bananas are just a bit too loud to bring to quiet places, but the bananas are probably the most satisfying to type on because they're the most tactile. I ended up going with more a hybrid setup. So cowberry linear on space, shift, and function keys, alpha keys get the chocolates, and arrow keys/numbers/enter/delete get the bananas. ## Frequently Bought Together - GATERON KS-33 Low Profile Banana Keyboard Switches, Tactile 65gf 3 Pin RGB LED Factory Pre-lubed for MX Mechanical Keyboard (35PCS) - GATERON KS-33 Low Profile Chocolate Keyboard Switches, Tactile 55gf 3 Pin RGB LED Factory Pre-lubed for MX Mechanical Keyboard (35PCS) - GATERON KS-33 Low Profile 2.0 Silver Switches, 3 Pin Factory Pre-lubed SMD LED for MX Mechanical Keyboard (Silver, 35pcs) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/652096533-gareron-ks-33-low-profile-touch-vanillon-switch-65gf3-pin](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/652096533-gareron-ks-33-low-profile-touch-vanillon-switch-65gf3-pin) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-11-12*
