Which Button Has the Best Click?

SparkFun carries a lot of buttons, switches, and tactile inputs. Each one has its own feel, its own sound, and its own personality.

In this video, we're putting them all to the test. From soft tactile switches to chunky arcade buttons, we're giving each one a few clicks so you can hear the differences for yourself.

Which button has the best click? Let us know in the comments.

If you hear one you like, you can find the audio recordings on the corresponding product pages to compare them before your next project.
