Hall effect keyboards use magnetic switches that let you adjust the actuation point for each key, giving you more precise control over input response than standard mechanical switches allow. They’re popular with competitive gamers and typists who want a customizable feel. When comparing, look at form factor (60 percent versus full size), the software available for actuation tuning, and the overall travel distance of the switch.
