Angry Miao x Tango Works next generation collab switches. Transparent and plenty of thock, crafted using a high-precision 4-cavity mold.

Introducing our latest custom mechanical switch - the Icy Silver Pro V2.

Nylon with RGB: PA12

PA12 is considered state-of-the-art when it comes to nylon material choices. It has a very high purity and costs 8 times more than ordinary nylon (PA66) and PC.

We used our own self-developed material combination and manufacturing process with Icy Silver Pro V2. This is how we were able to create a fully metal housing that's fully up to our standards.

More durable Y3.5 stem

Icy Silver Pro V1's highly praised Y3 axis has been upgraded to Y3.5 with Icy Silver Pro V2.

By using a Y3.5 switch stem, we further build upon Icy Silver Pro's smooth foundation The friction coefficient is only 0.04, which is 70% less than POM and LY materials.

We have made some adjustments to post-processing while keeping materials the same, adding to its durability.

This means that the Icy Silver Pro V2 not only has excellent smoothness, but will also last you a long time.

Thock = Y3.5 + nylon housing

The Y3.5 stem and nylon housing takes the sound profile of the Icy Silver Pro V2 to the next level. Our beta testers absolutely enjoyed its tweaked sound profile. The refined thock makes the Icy Silver Pro V2 the perfect switch to complement your keyboard.

Y3.5 with more precision, improved structure, and better post-processing

4-cavity mold

The most effective and expensive way to upgrade manufacturing precision is to reduce the number of mold cavities. We opted for a brand new 4-cavity mold, which doesn't carry any disadvantages except its high cost.

Using a ultra-high precision mold allows use to achieve a tight fit between the upper and lower housing of the switch. Thanks to the improvement in mold precision, we have the confidence to use PA12 nylon, a transparent material with a shrinkage rate that's more difficult to control, but at the same time delivers a better sound performance. In the end, both the RGB experience and thock of the switch were improved by opting for the 4-cavity mold.

Shiny mold, polished allround

Transparency depends not only on the material, but also on the manufacturing process.

Exclusive mold for Icy Silver Pro V2

We used the profits earned from the Icy Silver Pro V1 to prepare our 4-cavity mold for a production capacity of 50,000-750,000 pieces, ensuring that each Icy Silver Pro V2 switch is produced in the mold's most optimum time in its lifecycle. Of course, only switches made in this way can meet the requirements of Angry Miao users.

New structure

We kept the same stem dimensions as with Icy Silver Pro V1's Y3 stem. Based on these dimensions, we created a new internal design. The most obvious change is that the part where the upper housing contacts meets the stem has been minimized. When the stem is pressed down, there's less noise caused by the rebound of the upper housing, making the typing sound cleaner.

Using an ultra-high precision mold allows for precise fit of the upper and lower housing. Thanks to improved mold precision, we have the confidence to use PA12 nylon, a transparent material with better sound performance but a harder to control shrinkage rate. This allowed us to improve on both RGB and thock.

Gentle actuation and smooth bottom-out

Just like the Icy Silver Pro V1, V2 also has an actuation force of 37gf and a bottom-out force of 45gf. Bottom-out travel has been fine-tuned to 3.7mm, solving oversensitivity commonly found on switches with a light actuation force.

Great switches so far

Came well lubed and in nice packaging. They have a lovely light thocky sound that reminds me of clear marbles. There was a bit of a learning curve for me because the actuation force is lower than my previous switches but overall a smooth, fast, comfy experience.

Extremely satisfying, but wouldn't call them tactile

These switches came in great condition. Every switch was flawless, no bent pins in the package, and crystal clear. Aesthetics are a 10/10!

Typing on these switches is a completely unique experience. They are definitely not linear, there is a VERY slight and rounded bump. If youre looking for something with a snappy break to the tactile bump, think like gazzew u4ts, these are not for you. The one thing that stands out for these switches is they are buttery smooth. Absolutely no scratch, no spring ping, and nearly silent. I would call these creamy. With good key caps they have a decent sound profile, thocky on bottom out and top out, but more of a muted thock at least on the keyboard I had tested them on (Lemokey L3, I have a Holy 60 on the way that I will try them on as well). In terms of total typing experience, they are so smooth it is actually a bit disorienting. It's extremely satisfying if you appreciate tight tolerances and the smoothness that comes with that. It takes some getting used to but I have a feeling these will likely be my preferred switch for work as they don't lead to any finger fatigue after many hours and the quieter nature makes them ideal for a shared space.

For gaming, they are a decent switch, helped by the fact that they are quiet light to actuate. The lack of a pronounced bump makes it difficult to be sure you pressed the key unless you bottom out your keys on every press. If you are used to linear speed switches, or generally prefer linear switches you will probably like these, however they do lose out to switches like Cherry Speed Silvers since those actuate almost immediately and these seem to record a keystroke closer to 50-60% of the way down, meaning light keystrokes don't give you the same sense of security. I personally prefer my UT4X switches for gaming as the very pronounced bump feels better to me during gaming where I want to be sure the button I pressed definitely hit the actuation point.

All in all, for a premium switch I would rate these an 8/10, if you're looking for a linear/tactile hybrid that doesn't feel like anything else out there, they are definitely worth the try. If you're even considering them I would go for it for the novelty alone. Even if they end up not being to your taste they are undoubtedly a very high quality switch that you can use on the occasion that you want something different for a bit.

What do I think about Icy Silver Pro V2 Switches (90pcs)?

I've tried the V1s and currently using the pro v2 platinum edition switches, the difference was surprisingly obvious! Personal experience for the V1s was that it gives off a nice crispy and bright acoustics, the typing feel is really smooth and straightforward. But the V2 platinum editions are my personal favourite now, the switches adds a little bit more resistance than the V1s, making it feel like i'm typing / pressing in on butter as compared to water (V1s), which i loved it. Once i got used to it, it felt amazing! The acoustics of the platinum edition ones are insane, it is a little more dampened, not as crisp as the V1s but it sounds super thocky and holistic but yet having that signature crisp, its very well balanced between extreme thock but yet having that mahjong(y) vibes, with a nice crisp. I've got to say I LOVE the sounds of the big keys, especially the backspace and the enter keys, it sounds sooo good with the switches and angry miao's stablilisers!
