Switches with white sliders are very light and linear, with no Cherry MX equivalent. Cherry's similar-looking switches are instead [[Cherry MX Clear|tactile]] or [[Cherry MX White|clicky]] (older type).

Gateron's clicky switches lack the small pin on the top of the slider beside the cruciform mount that clicky varieties of [[Cherry MX]] and many [[:Category:Clones of Cherry MX switches|clones]] have.
This makes clicky Gaterons fit [[Damping#Silencing clips|silencing clips]] whereas the others do not.

=== Custom switches===
; Zealio
: The [[Zealio]] family of switches from [[Zeal PC]]. Some switches have been sold in translucent shells but most variants have had transparent shells similar to [[Gateron KS-8 series]]. The tactile variants have custom sliders, exclusive to Zeal PC. They have [[lubrication]] and gold-plated springs.
; Linjär
: Switches with linear (Swe:"Linjär", pron:"linnyair") feel, in the colours of the Swedish flag, with lubrication and gold-plated springs. Group run by Swedish enthusiasts in early 2019.
