These switches retain the dust-proof, wall-stem design of the original series while adding an LED lens for enhanced RGB illumination. Each switch is lubricated to ensure consistent linear smoothness, delivering seamless and satisfying typing experiences.\n\nKey design has been optimized with mid-height keycaps (similar to Cherry profile keycaps) and a shorter stem to reduce key wobble, and provide a more comfortable user experience.\n\nA specially tuned, lubricated switch stabilizer greatly reduces keystroke friction, compared to traditional stabilizer mechanisms, giving you smooth and stable keystrokes for longer keys such as the Spacebar, Shift, and Enter keys.\n\nBuilt-in sound-dampening foam helps absorb pinging noises and echoes within the keyboard.\n\nThe multi-function button and multiwheel allows users to control media playback, adjust volume, and tweak keyboard lighting.\u003ch5\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDevice\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable
