MX Blues are probably better than something that nobody's ever heard of..

The MX Blues are higher quality and more consistent in feel than the Kailh switches.

Cherry MX switches are better in terms of their QC and testing. The difference isn't that big though.

Plenty of people around here know what Kailhua switches are, they are imitation Cherry MX switches.

The difference is one used the gaming switches (2014) that are pretty much Kaihl while the other uses the MX switches (2013). Are you planning a buy soon?

depends on what you want. The Kaihl switches actuate earlier than the blues, but consequently also take longer to reset. The browns and orange switches have almost no differences besides build quality. It really depends on if you game or type. Personally i would actually chose the new blackwidow for typing (If I didn't live with anyone. I mean they are LOUD). People act like if you buy Cherry they are indestructible and have no variation, and that Kaihl will break super easily and have massive changes between each batch. They are both pretty dang good, but I personally am going to buy a Cherry keyboard because of the MX RGB switch that will eventually come. If you want my real opinion it would be to avoid Razer like the plague because of their crappy software.
