I have a keychron V6 (it’s full size). Solid plastic housing, baby kangaroo switches and KSA caps (these are close to MT3 and SA if anyone is wondering). I like the keyboard so far, but it’s not loud enough for me. I like loud and clicky. My question is, does anyone here use a keychron V6/k10/Q6 or any full size with SA/MT3/KSA and kailh box navy switches? If so, how is it? Is it loud? Also, is it heavy since I read that these switches are 90 gm bottom out. Are the jade better?Baby kangaroo are 67 gm bottom out. I mostly code, not much gaming. I’d appreciate any input. Thank you

    I use box jades in a GMMK Pro. It’s a heavy board at around 3kg. It somehow feels lighter than my cherry MX blues in a plastic case board.

    What’s the weight on the V6? Case material and construction? These will all factor in.

      It weighs around 3.2 pounds (around 1.45kg) That’s the weight of the whole fully assembled keyboard. Also, the jades are a lot lighter than the navies if you read the specs. Jades are like 55ish bottom out and the navy are 90

        I’d recommend box jades or getting a Kailh tester with box jades, box navies and box whites for testing.

        I personally love mine, would absolutely buy them again.

          Box whites are a very nice light tactile switch.

          I know what you’re thinking, but I said what I said.

            They are… I mainly suggested them on a tester as a reference point. Also, as someone who loves heavy clucky switches, I was surprised at how much I liked them.

              Agreed they’re nice. If they were to become standard on introductory boards instead of the blue click-jackets, I think many more people would stay on Team Clicky.
