UniKeys Wingtree Yowzers Tactile Switches

UniKeys Wingtree Yowzers Tactile is a tactile switch for typists who want a pronounced, rounded bump rather than a light or barely noticeable tactile event. Its two force options let you choose a lighter or firmer press. It is less suited to users seeking quiet switches or perfectly smooth travel.

Feel and sound

The switch is described as having a larger, rounded bump, giving each press a distinct tactile cue. Its travel is also described as scratchy yet smooth, so expect some texture rather than a uniformly slick feel. The vendor characterizes the sound as clean, crisp, and clacky. That makes it a poor fit if low-noise typing is a priority.

Press options

The lighter version needs less force to actuate and bottom out, while the firmer version takes more effort. This gives users a choice between a lighter press and a more resistant feel. Both have relatively little movement between actuation and bottom-out, so the press does not continue far after registering. The custom copper leaf is intended to shape the bump and typing feel.

Trade-offs

Factory lubing means lubricant is applied before use, which can reduce friction without requiring an initial lubrication session. However, it does not erase the reported scratchy texture. The clacky sound may also be distracting in shared or quiet spaces. Further details on consistency between switches and suitability for gaming are unknown.
