Three of them are the same as the stock BOX switches, but with heavier springs, and a different colored slider to differentiate them from the lighter variants. These are BOX Dark Yellow (extra heavy linear), BOX Burnt Orange (heavy tactile) and BOX Pale Blue (heavy clicky). <ref name="novelkeys-heavy" /> Two others are those of the clicky design, but with a thicker click bar. The thicker click bar increases the tactility by a lot, and makes the switches louder. These variants are BOX Jade (lighter spring, thick click bar) and BOX Navy (heavier spring, thick click bar). <ref name="novelkeys-thick" /> The last variant is using the tactile design, but with stiffer contacts. This change increases the tactility quite a bit. This variant is the BOX Royal switch. <ref name="novelkeys-royal" /> ===Box Crystal=== The Box Crystal is different from other Box switches in that it has a transparent bottom with [[fixing pins]]. The switch is tactile. It has also been available in two weights: "62gf" and "67gf" with the same-looking slider from [[Drop]]<ref name="dropcrystal"/>, KPRepublic and sellers on Aliexpress. The slider is translucent white like [[Cherry MX Clear|MX Clear]].
