This is because optical switches use a light beam to register a key press, while mechanical switches use a physical contact. The faster actuation speed can give you a slight edge in competitive gaming, but it is not a major difference for most people.<\/p>\n<p>Some brands claim 100 million keystrokes for optical switches, which are also longer lasting than mechanical switches. Around 50 million keystrokes is the average life expectancy of mechanical switches.<\/p>\n<h2>Mechanical Switches<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-10550 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image-asset.jpeg?resize=960%2C576&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"960\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image-asset.jpeg?w=960&amp;ssl=1 960w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image-asset.jpeg?resize=300%2C180&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image-asset.jpeg?resize=768%2C461&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image-asset.jpeg?resize=880%2C528&amp;ssl=1 880w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Mechanical switches offer a more tactile and satisfying typing experience than optical switches. This is because mechanical switches have a physical bump that you can feel when the key is activated. Some people find this to be more enjoyable, while others prefer the faster actuation speed of optical switches.<\/p>\n<p>You can also customize mechanical switches more than optical switches. Mechanical switches come in all kinds of sizes, forces, and travel distances.
