Overview
The Gateron Magnetic Jade Delta is a Hall-effect magnetic linear switch in Gateron's Magnetic Jade family, built for analog gaming boards with adjustable actuation. It uses a modified POM top and bottom housing with a POM stem and is factory lubed.
Its defining feature is a triangular stem replacing the usual rectangular one, framed as a stability measure but described by reviewers as largely aesthetic. Its sound is noted as deeper and richer than typical Hall-effect linears.

Plus: low stem wobble, a proper magnetic sound. Minus: with keycaps on there’s a slight dissonant note, and it’s pricey. The triangular (“delta”) stem is a neat idea but not fully dialed in yet — you can hear a little dissonance from wobble. Modern HE switches are so good that this stands out, though it’s not actually loud or bad. With another iteration it could be excellent.
