Know before you buy
The 48gf option provides a lighter, snappier feel that is ideal for fast typing and gaming. The 60gf option offers more resistance, which is generally preferred by users who want a more deliberate, substantial tactile experience.
These are Cherry MX-style switches with a 5-pin design. They are compatible with most hot-swappable mechanical keyboards, though you should ensure your PCB supports 5-pin switches; if it only supports 3-pin, you can simply clip the two extra plastic legs off.
No, the MMD Princess V2 switches come pre-lubricated from the factory. They are designed to provide a smooth, consistent feel right out of the box without requiring additional manual lubrication.
POM is known for its low-friction properties, which contributes to the smooth actuation of these switches. It also tends to produce a slightly deeper, more solid sound profile compared to standard plastic housings.
The 5-pin design includes two additional plastic guide pins that provide extra stability. This helps keep the switch firmly aligned on the PCB, reducing wobble and ensuring a more consistent keystroke.
