So, only four general types of switches tested:
• Cherry MX click Jacket
• Gateron click jacket
• Kailh click jacket
• Kailh click bar, although both Box and non-box variants.

Would've been a solid comparison if only you mentioned that it's specifically MX-only. Good video otherwise.

Just to pile on, you need some Topres and Nopres in there :D.

I like the use of the "bookmarks" or whatever they're really called in the video so you can jump to a switch. That being said, I think this might be better as a website and not as a single video. But that's just an opinion.

I counted and there are 50 quintillion MX switch variants out there and you're supposed to use various lubes, films, wraps, etc. Only testing 12 switches is a bit low.

You might want to ask for what the best case is for different switches. I know you're using the hot swap because it's easy to change the switches, but that's not an overly resonant case. I'd actually love to put some Box Jades into a really boomy case, but that's a far-future project.

I like the production and graphics.

Thanks man!! Your feedback is very appreciated! :) Yeah it's a work in progress, will test other variant and part in the future! And the idea of a website is excellent! Thank you!

I still think that Pro Worlds is one of the best feeling and sounding clicky MX based switches out there.
