creamy, thocky, poppy, and super satisfying switches
The media could not be loaded. Amazing switches for my first keyboard build, very creamy indeed. Paired with the Monsgeek M1, force break mod, 3 layers of tape mod, and poron case foam, this just sounds like heaven.The tactile feeling is very pronounced and satisfying and the super light operating force and low travel makes it so fast to type on. I haven’t tried a lot of other keyboards, but this switch just makes typing so satisfying in terms of both feel and sound.This is my second time achieving 170+ wpm (not very consistent, have to get pretty lucky with the words i’m given but I can achieve 150 wpm 100% accuracy often now) and both times have been on this keyboard. I previously used the RK M75 with fast silver switches and these switches feel so much faster (given its operating force is 18g lighter than the silvers) and more satisfying that my typing speed and accuracy has improved a lot (but this also comes with me typing a lot more).All in all, this is an amazing budget tactile switch that sounds great by default but paired with some tape and foam it will provide the creamiest thock you've ever heard.

THESE are the second best tactile switch I have used
These are significantly better to type with than the Creamy blues, the color is more pink than lurple but that’s just going by the palette.The housing isn’t transparent so if you’re planning to use shine through caps you best not do that.Functionality is solid. They’re a lightweight switch with a very prominent bump at the top as described. They’re lower pitched than the blues too which make them sound more creamy.I recommend you get an aluminum board or at least an aluminum plated board to really get that sound profile to where you want it.The only negative is the stem wobble because that’s pretty noticeable.But I have yet to feel another tactile switch as smooth as this and I love Akko switches.Next up will be the creamy yellows and I am very confident those will be my favorite of the line.

Great switches!!
These switches are amazing, but I would suggest hand lubing them yourself. The factory lube job is not very consistent, and it seems like there is only a small amount on the rails inside the switch. The quality and sound is on point thought. And they have a very unique tactical feel to them.

Excellent Switches
These are quiet, tactile switches with a buttery popcorn feel when typing. I'm coming from halo clears, which are hecking heavy! They're kind of like jumping on a trampoline, but with your fingers. In contrast, typing with the Akko Creamy Purple Pros is like skipping through a garden!I'm using these in a DROP CTRL gen 1 board. (I did have to modify them to fit, but this doesn't impact the performance.) It's a good pairing, in my opinion; you aren't typing so heavy that the echo is noticeable, and they offer a nice light contrast to the weight of the board itself. I'm also using them in an external number pad.Packaging was inconsistent; I bought a few sets, and the package was different for all of them? But they're all the same switch, and were packed with great care; not a single switch was damaged. I was impressed!"Creamy" definitely fits the bill in terms of description. There's nothing harsh about the sound or feel of these. Over all, I think these are a friendly switch to check out when modding your own keyboard, be you new to the hobby or a veteran.

Great sound, feel and price, but questionable quality control.
When replacing my current Glorious G-Lynx switches with these, I noticed that some of my keycaps would slip off the stem, so I got curious and checked some of the switches to see that some didn't hold at all and would slip right off when you used the key. Some of the switches held alright and some had a really hard hold on the keycap. I bought 3 boxes of switches so I have 135 switches total and I was able to go through and replace some of the problematic ones. Overall great sound, feel and price are very good and if Akko can sort out some of these quality control issues it will be a very very good switch.

Light & smooth.
I love these!! Typing on them now. :) They're a light touch, which I need because I type 14-16 hours per day and my hands hurt a LOT; reducing typing force is a must for me!! Very smooth in operation. Very much a linear model, as described; in my Epomaker TH80 they have very little sound. Feel:Low actuation force. Quality:I'd heard good things about AKKO and was not disappointed; I think 1-2 switches were "bad," out of 90ish purchased.

Interesting zero pre-travel tacticle switch
The media could not be loaded. Reviewing the new Creamy Purple switch. I am enjoying these so far. The most unique aspect is that there is zero pre-travel, the tactile bump starts right at the top. After you buy a bunch of different switches some of them can start to feel too similar. These are different enough to be noticeable. In other tactile switches you will get a little bit of linear pre-travel, then you hit the tactile bump, and then you go past it. These feel very good with the bump right at the top. I like a very strong tactile bump and I would rate these an 8/10 in terms of bump. The spring weight is fairly light at 30g but the tactile bump makes you press harder, so it doesn't feel as floaty as a light weight switch. These seem like they will be great for typing.At one point I looked down and my V key was stuck down. Not sure why. I opened the switch and didn't really see any issues. It seems okay now.Akko still provides a good deal, 45 switches when usually you would get 30 or so at this price. Nice to be able to buy one pack and be able to cover your alpha keys and modifiers with just one pack if you're cheap like me.

Good price, good switches
Great switches for the price. Very smooth and pretty thocky. I compared these to the Glorious bronze, copper, and purples and thought these were superior.
