Akko Astrolink Magnetic Smoothest Switch Ever

Akko Astrolink HE Switch Sound Test and Review: The Akko Astrolink magnetic switch is one of the smoothest linear switches I’ve tested. It’s also surprisingly creamy for a magnetic switch, with a deep sound! I conducted detailed sound tests using GMK, MT3, and SA keycaps, comparing it with other popular switches in a controlled environment to provide a clear understanding of its acoustic profile on a full keyboard. In this video, I explore the switch’s design, performance, and unique features. Note that while this is a magnetic switch, I tested it on a mechanical keyboard for sound comparison purposes only. These switches are only compatible with Hall Effect keyboards. 🔔 Subscribe for weekly keyboard sound tests and in-depth reviews: https://www.youtube.com/c/ClickAndThock?sub_confirmation=1 The tests for these Akko Astrolink switches Sound Test were conducted using an FR4 plate on a DZ60 board with Tofu60 aluminum case. During the tests, I performed a typing test and a slow bottom-out test to showcase the switch's sound and feel. I also conducted a decibel meter test to measure the switch's noise level with and without a keycap. #magneticswitches #mechanicalkeyboard #akko 👉 PRODUCT LINK: https://en.akkogear.com/product/akko-astrolink-magnetic-switch/?ref=56360&srsltid=AfmBOop4tVn-p-TzTzpGpMsFkRV8Zqr0VCR0_jd6scPBMyHQGIihTHtb Thanks @akkogear for providing these switches for testing!
