With their innovative design and careful selection of components, the Holy Panda X switches are optimized for an authentic feel with unrivaled consistency. These switches are the next iteration of tactile typing and provide an improved consistency in their performance.

Manufactured by Gateron, the Holy Panda X is fully engineered from start to finish with exacting quality assurance processes. They easily outstrip their predecessor with improved stem stability, lubrication reliability, and overall consistency.

One of the best features of the Holy Panda X switches is that they are plate-mounted and 3-pin. This makes them compatible with plate-mounted Cherry-style PCB's, which opens up a whole world of possibilities for customization and personalization. They are perfect for hot-swap compatible barebones kits such as the Drop ALT, CTRL, Carina, Tokyo60, SHIFT, Planck, and Preonic.

With a 65g actuation force, the Holy Panda X switches are perfect for those who prefer a heavier key press and want to avoid accidentally hitting keys. Their quiet and tactile feel makes them a great choice for office environments or shared spaces where quiet is a must.

The Holy Panda X features a smoky-colored polycarbonate top case, nylon bottom case, and POM stem. These carefully selected materials help to reduce stem wobble and improve overall consistency across the board.

While the Holy Panda X switches are not the cheapest switches on the market, their quality and performance make them well worth the investment. They offer a great balance between a tactile, quiet typing experience and overall consistency in performance.

One minor complaint about the Holy Panda X switches is that they may take some time to break in. Some users have reported that they feel stiff or scratchy when first installed, but after a period of use, they become much smoother and more tactile.

Overall, the Drop Holy Panda X Mechanical Keyboard Switches are an excellent choice for those looking for a tactile and quiet switch that offers improved consistency in performance. Their plate-mounted and 3-pin design opens up a world of possibilities for customization, and their high-quality construction will ensure years of reliable use.
