Part of Akko's Custom Series, the Stellar Rose combines a light 37gf spring with a slightly shortened 3.8mm bottom-out for a nimble, responsive typing experience. Sound tests show that its custom POM stem and modified nylon housing produce a bright, high-pitched marbly clack that sounds fantastic on foam-padded keyboard builds. Reviewers highlight the consistent factory lubrication, which eliminates scratchiness and spring ping straight out of the box. Keycaps sit firmly on the stem with minimal East-to-West wobble, keeping typing uniform and clean. It is an eye-catching, smooth linear that delivers outstanding auditory pop for budget-conscious builders.

Explore switches with similar technology, feel, form factor, operating force, and travel.
The Akko Stellar Rose is a Mechanical switch from Akko with a Linear feel, so its keypress character is primarily defined by that mechanism and feedback style.
The Akko Stellar Rose has an operating force of 37 gf. That is a light switch feel suited to users who prefer easy keypresses.
The Akko Stellar Rose has a pre-travel of 2 mm. Shorter actuation distances usually feel quicker because the key registers earlier in the press.
The Akko Stellar Rose has a total travel distance of 3.8 mm. Total travel describes the full stroke from rest to bottom-out.
The Akko Stellar Rose is listed as 5-pin, MX keycap compatibility is yes, and hot-swap compatibility is yes. Always match the switch pins and keyboard PCB/socket before buying.
Yes. The Akko Stellar Rose is listed as factory lubed. Factory lubrication can affect out-of-box smoothness and sound, but its effect can vary with the keyboard build and keycaps.
Available sound-related specs for the Akko Stellar Rose include sound profile: Clacky, sound level: Medium. Case, plate, keycaps, and desk mat can still change the final keyboard sound.
The Akko Stellar Rose lists top housing: PA12, bottom housing: PA12, stem: T5, contact: Gold-plated alloy. These parts influence feel, sound, wobble, and long-term switch consistency.
