The HMX Caramel Linear Edition is a meticulously crafted keyboard switch designed to offer a smooth and satisfying typing experience. Engineered with precision and attention to detail, this switch is perfect for enthusiasts who appreciate both performance and durability in their mechanical keyboards.
The Caramel Linear Edition boasts several standout features that make it a top choice for keyboard enthusiasts. Each component has been carefully selected to enhance the overall performance and feel of the switch.
At the heart of the Caramel Linear Edition is the modified UPE stem. This material is relatively new to HMX and has been engineered to enhance strength and durability. Unlike traditional UPE, this modified version is less prone to breakage and offers a unique sound profile. While it may not produce the deep tones of pure UPE stems, it delivers a distinct thocky sound that stands out among other HMX switches.
The combination of the modified UPE stem and PA66 bottom housing aims to create a deep and resonant sound profile. Although it may not match the depth of some renowned deep switches like the Vertex V1s, it provides a satisfying auditory experience that is both deep and thocky compared to other HMX offerings.
The Caramel Linear Edition is designed with performance in mind, offering a smooth and consistent typing experience.
To ensure optimal performance right out of the box, the Caramel Linear Edition comes factory-lubed. A mix of GPL105 and GPL205 lubricants is applied to the leaf spring, stem feet, and bottom housing rails, while a dry film lube is used on the springs. This meticulous lubrication process ensures a smooth and consistent keystroke with minimal friction.
Each quantity of the Caramel Linear Edition includes 10 switches, allowing users to customize their keyboards with ease and precision.
