EPOMAKER Bluebird

The EPOMAKER Bluebird is a linear mechanical switch engineered for users who prioritize speed, silence, and a satisfying smoothness in every keystroke. Built with a dual-stage spring and pre-lubed internals, it offers a fluid typing experience out of the box with minimal scratch or resistance. The switch actuates at 47g with a total travel distance of 3.8mm—slightly shorter than standard—making it ideal for fast-paced gaming or long typing sessions where fatigue can build up.

Its transparent top housing allows RGB lighting to shine through clearly, making it a great fit for visually customized setups. Manufactured with high-quality materials and tight tolerances, the Bluebird has a sound profile that leans toward soft and subdued, avoiding the sharp clack often associated with budget linears. Whether you're building a quiet office board or a minimalist gaming setup, the EPOMAKER Bluebird offers an accessible, polished linear experience at an affordable price point.

User Feedback

Community feedback on the EPOMAKER Bluebird is largely positive, especially among budget-conscious builders looking for premium feel without a high price tag. Users frequently praise the switch’s smoothness and consistent travel, with many noting that the factory lubing is surprisingly well-done compared to other switches in the same price range.

The sound profile is often described as “muted” or “thocky-light,” depending on the board and caps used—making it a favorite among users assembling low-noise setups. Some enthusiasts recommend additional lubing or spring swapping for a more refined experience, but most agree the out-of-box performance is impressive for the cost.

On the downside, a few users mention that the housing tolerances aren’t quite as tight as higher-end boutique switches, which may affect stability in looser sockets. However, for the vast majority of users, the EPOMAKER Bluebird hits a sweet spot between performance, aesthetics, and affordability.
