NovelKeys Cream Switches

The NovelKeys Cream Switch is a beloved choice among mechanical keyboard enthusiasts, praised for its smooth, self-lubricating action and unique "creamy" sound profile. Built entirely from POM (Polyoxymethylene), these switches develop their signature smoothness the more you use them — making them a true "break-in" switch. With a solid linear feel and a deeper, thockier sound over time, Cream switches are ideal for those who enjoy a slightly heavier press and want a switch that gets better with age.
