<h2>SP-Star Switches Early Reviews</h2>
We sent prototype samples of SP-Star Switches out for early reviews and initial thoughts. The SP-Star Magic Girl Switches are both re-colors of the Dark Prototype SP-Star Switch samples in their comments and video. More to come.

MaxFLive: These switches seem to have a pronounced "double" actuation. It's a nice more pronounced bump than a vintage brown. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NeoKqDNan4s">Watch the review and sound test →</a>

BadSeedTech: The dark prototype sample has a better (deeper) sound and not as much spring or leaf ping.

<h2>Switches 101</h2>
Switches are the components that sit under each keycap and register when you press a key. There's a large variety of them that differ in how they feel and sound. 
When building custom keyboards, often switches need to be soldered to the PCB. Keyboard builds that don't require soldering switches are referred to as hotswap—installing and changing switches is as easy as inserting them and pulling them out (switch puller required!)
These SP-Star switches are a tactile switch, which refers to the tactile "bump" that you feel when you press down on it. This is in contrast to a linear switch that goes down smoothly, or a clicky switch that has a bump as well as an audible click sound.
