While the vast majority have a sound in the significantly dulled range that I described above in the previous paragraph, approximately 20-30% of the switches in my batch actually had a bit sharper of a sound to them even through the dampening. These are little notes of interest I generated when comparing these switches to the Box Mute Jades side by side. However, things start to turn downhill when we’re talking about slower-paced games, especially stealth games. The Kailh Box Mute Jades are better than the Gateron Ink Blue V2 switches with respect to stem wobble in both the N/S and E/W directions.

Falling very much in line with other previous Box switch releases, these have a noticeable but not overwhelming amount of stem wobble that will likely not bother anyone who chooses to use them. I have however had luck swapping the springs an dstems of the Kailh Box Jades and Pale Blues as they both feature the Kailh housing.

I believe if you are able to have the finger stamina to type on these switches, you'll find them very satisfying, just as I did. The Box Jade and Box Navy, which requires over 50 gf operating force, brings intense and sturdy typing feel and the Box Cream, with its ultra-smooth travel combined with the box design , makes it a solid choice among linear fans who are looking for a seamless typing experience. I went from around 80 wpm to 45 just getting used to them and now feel more comfortable and am probably sitting around 60 (best guess). In terms of topping out and bottoming out feeling, the Cherry MX Blues do marginally outpace the Kailh Box Mute Jades, though this is not entirely surprising given the hobby’s general fondness for Cherry nylon housings.The relatively firm O-ring used in the jailhousing modification of these Cherry MX Blues leads them to have a significantly more snappy feeling than that of the Mute Box Jades. But the parts I received were perfect and delivered very well in great packaging and it wasn't too expensive.
