Cherry Launches the XTRFY K5V2 Compact Gaming Keyboard
CHERRY XTRFY, the specialist for high-quality gaming peripherals, announces the availability of the new K5V2 keyboard - the first gaming keyboard with CHERRY's new mechanical MX2A switches.
CHERRY XTRFY redefines the 65% keyboard class with the K5V2 Compact. The renowned company combines well-known CHERRY quality with a modern design and durable mechanical MX2A Red switches. The keyboard's advanced per-key customizable RGB illumination creates impressive effects with innovative strip LED technology, which can be further enhanced with the USB 3 mode.One of the smallest but most advanced gaming keyboards in the CHERRY XTRFY portfolio, the K5V2 has a footprint of just 65 percent of a conventional keyboard. Despite its compact dimensions, CHERRY XTRFY does not compromise on quality. With a weight of 841 grams, the keyboard sits securely on the desk even during intensive gaming sessions. All settings, such as macros and media control, are made simply via key combinations; no additional software needs to be installed.
Uncompromising quality
The CHERRY XTRFY K5V2's solid metal plate construction and double layers of sound-absorbing foam not only contribute to the keyboard's high weight, but also ensure high torsional rigidity and thus a rich and high-quality typing feel with a pleasant sound. Of course, 100 percent anti-ghosting and a polling rate of 1000 Hz are also standard on the K5V2. But CHERRY XTRFY goes one step further: with Super Scan technology, all keys are scanned every half a millisecond. This makes the K5V2 the ideal tool for pro gamers. A detachable USB cable with a textile sheath rounds off the features.
The first gaming keyboard with the new CHERRY MX2A Red Switches
At the heart of the CHERRY XTRFY K5V2 are the mechanical MX2A switches, a transformative upgrade to the CHERRY MX, which are used in more than 60 million keyboards worldwide. With precisely applied premium-grade lubricant and a new innovative spring design, the MX2A delivers smoother actuation and improved acoustics. The Red version of the switches has a linear characteristic and, thanks to the proven gold crosspoint contacts, offers an enormous durability of more than 100 million actuations without any loss of quality.

In addition to different layouts, there are more than 150 options to choose from - from preferred switches and key caps to cords, frames and logo plates. Your very own K5V2 is just a few clicks away!
