The HMX Desert Linear switch is a meticulously crafted keyboard switch designed by HIFI Fox, intended to complement the renowned DMK Silent Desert keycap set. With its translucent PA12 housing, this switch evokes the imagery of sand and wind, offering a unique aesthetic while delivering a superior typing experience.
The translucent PA12 housing of the switch is reminiscent of the desert landscape, capturing the essence of sand and wind. This design not only enhances the visual appeal of your keyboard but also provides a smooth and seamless typing experience.
The Desert Linear switch offers a silky smooth travel, thanks to the PA12 housing. Despite its desert-inspired look, the feel is anything but dry. The precise factory lubing by HMX, using a mix of GPL105 and GPL205, ensures a smooth operation, enhancing the overall typing experience.
Belonging to the classic HMX clack category, these switches provide a bright, clean, and clacky sound. The combination of the POM stem and PA12 housing ensures a balanced sound profile, with the softness of PA12 mitigating the potential stiffness of the POM stem's bottom-out.
The HMX Desert Linear switch is an exceptional choice for keyboard enthusiasts seeking a unique aesthetic paired with a high-performance typing experience. Its combination of materials, precise factory lubing, and distinctive sound profile make it a standout option for any keyboard setup.
