Single Light Magnetic Keyboard Switch

Unionwell’s Single light Magnetic Keyboard Switch features a crescent-shaped light guide column for enhanced RGB lighting effects. Internally, it employs a patented split-core structure to prevent core misalignment and ensure structural stability. The linear switch has a total travel of 3.2±0.1mm, paired with a 21mm extra-long spring for optimal actuation.

Polar Magnetic Keyboard Switch • Ink Jade

Operating Force 35±5gf
Behavior Linear
Total Travel 3.50±0.20mm
Mechanical lifespan 100 Million lifespan
Spring Length 21mm
Suitable Scenarios Office/Gaming
Light Type Single-LED

Tactile Feel

The Ink Jade GT06 series exhibits a distinctly “smooth yet stable” actuation characteristic. The initial press is light, and the actuation process is smooth and natural, without a noticeable tactile bump. However, a slight damping feedback is retained near the actuation point, making the overall feel more stable and controllable.

More Features

Compared to traditional mechanical switches, the magnetic induction structure provides more stable triggering consistency and faster response performance, and with no physical contact wear, the feel changes less over long-term use. The overall triggering is lighter and smoother, making it suitable for extended input and high-frequency operation scenarios.

Tactile Feel

Peach switches offer a smooth, linear feel with a light initial press and responsive rebound. Their 21mm extended springs provide more elastic bottom-out feedback, ensuring smooth, responsive keystrokes and maintaining comfort even during extended typing sessions.

More Features

Peach switches utilize Unionwell’s patented ball-and-socket design, maintaining switch stability even when pressed at an angle, reducing wobble and ensuring consistent actuation. The transparent PC top cover also enhances RGB lighting brightness, providing a clearer lighting effect.
