CHERRY combines high-quality German engineering skill with outstanding design. The first microswitches were produced in the basement of a restaurant in Illinois in 1953. The first keyboards were built 20 years later, making CHERRY the oldest manufacturer of computer keyboards. Production of MX switches commenced in 1983 and these are now used in millions of keyboards all over the world. Decades of experience, passion and heritage have made the brand with the CHERRY what it embodies today: Quality products designed in Germany aimed at anyone with high expectations of the performance, design, durability and functionality of their input devices. Tactile and acoustic switching awaits you with the MX BLUE switch. You can both feel and hear the feedback. If you type a lot, like the noticeable clicking noise and don’t work in an open-plan office, MX BLUE switches are an excellent choice. They easily manage more than 50 million strokes per key. 23 switches per box allow keyboard enthusiasts to order only the required quantity per format (full-size, TKL, 60%...).The switches sit securely in the box, which prevents the contact pins from bending. As well, pure cardboard packaging ensures reduced waste
