Wuque Studio Morandi Linear Switches

This linear switch suits users who want a smooth, consistent keystroke with moderate resistance. It fits typists and gamers who prefer a straightforward, non-tactile feel without added noise reduction. Its actuation force balances responsiveness and control, making it a versatile option for general use.

Feel & Sound

• Linear stem provides a smooth keystroke without tactile bumps or clicks.
• Not designed to be silent, so it produces typical mechanical switch noise without dampening.
• Bottoming out requires slightly more force than actuation, offering clear feedback on key press completion.

Actuation Characteristics

• Actuates at moderate force, suitable for users who want neither too light nor too heavy keys.
• Operating position at 2.0 mm allows for quick key registration within a 3.5 mm total travel.
• Double stage spring design may contribute to a consistent force curve and predictable bottom-out feel.

Build Quality

• Housing made from POM (polyoxymethylene) reduces friction for smoother keypresses.
• Stem constructed from UPE (ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene) supports durability and smoothness.
• Includes a PMMA light diffuser, which can enhance RGB lighting evenness if used with compatible boards.

Compatibility

• PCB mount with 5 pins ensures stable installation on most standard mechanical keyboards.
• White stem and housing colors may affect switch aesthetics and lighting diffusion.
• Unknown compatibility with hot-swap sockets or specific LED types.

Trade-offs

• No built-in sound dampening means louder typing compared to silent or dampened switches.
• Force variance of 5 cN may cause slight inconsistency between individual switches.
• Unknown factory lubrication quality, so additional lubing might be needed to reduce scratchiness or stem wobble (side-to-side stem movement affecting smoothness).
