Gaeote Switches?

[Jetfighter808]

I was contemplating getting this mechanical keyboard:

It comes with blue gaeote switches but I can't really justify spending £80+ on a keyboard with cherry mx blues or browns. Does anyone have any experience with these switches. How they feel compared to cherry's and are they as durable etc.... Also, can this keyboard can have its key caps replaced down the line with cherry compatible key caps because the stems look pretty similar from the photo.

 

Opinions are appreciated! Thanks.

IMO Gateron>Cherry>khail

 

Ever since cherry's patent fell gateron feels much more higher quality and feels more stiff than cherry

I don't know if you are miss spelling gateron or the key switches aren't gateron..

I have opted for Outemu Black switches myself and will receive my keyboard most likely after the holidays. I think they are pretty good based off what I read online.

I just saw this in a review but I'm not really sure.

Could the Gaote switches be this? https://deskthority.net/wiki/Gaote_PG150_series

I did a bit of research and it seems that  Outemu is the manufacturer and gaote is the name of the switch or something vaguely along those lines.
