Pictures of thte switch housing suggest that this is a Kailh switch btw, which wouldn't be such a bad thing if Logitech used Kailh's more innovatives designs that break away from just being Cherry MX clones. But these GX Blues are basically just Cherry RGB clones, based on the internals. Disappointing and absolutely baffling for Logitech to eschew their usual partner Omron when it came time to introduce clicky switches. Spec-wise, the GX blues offers basically nothing over standard Cherry MX, which also means it doesn't have the RomerG's shorter travel and actuation distance. It's obvious Logitech just cheaped out, smh.
