Like the reds, they are non-bumpy linear switches. Like coffee, sushi, golf, and bungee jumping, cherry blacks are of an acquired "taste". Cherry MX Black SwitchesĬherry blacks are the heaviest out of the bunch. To put this into perspective – Based on personal experience, it takes less effort to type on a cherry mx red keyboard, than on an Apple keyboard. These switches actuate at a feather-like touch of just 45g of pressure. In other words, you won't feel a tactile "bump" when you press the key. Unlike the blues and browns, cherry reds are a linear switch. The surge of reds into the keyboard market allowed them to skyrocket to become one of the more beloved switches of gamers and typists.
Several years ago, the only way you could get a keyboard loaded with reds was to order it from Asia, or participate in forum based "group buys".įortunately, manufacturers have recently started using reds in their line-up. Cherry MX Red SwitchesĬherry reds are the lightest out of the bunch. They're slightly "lighter" compared to the blues, actuating at around 45g of pressure. However, unlike the blues, they're silent as they lack the audible click – well, as silent as mechanical keyboards can be. Like the blues, they also have a tactile bump, letting the user know that the key has been actuated. Cherry MX Brown SwitchesĬherry browns switches are like a ninja cherry blue. However, after prolonged use, the volume of those clicks can drive a user mad, and others around the user even madder. The joy I get from the pristine audible "click" can only be compared to romanticized thoughts of typewriters clacking away in the 50's. I personally have a love/hate relationship with the blues.
