Cherry is a reputable company known for its high-quality input devices. Their products include mechanical keyboards, key switches, and other input peripherals. Cherry is recognized for producing reliable and durable solutions for both professional and casual users, earning a solid reputation in the industry. Earlier today, the company launched a new mechanical keyboard called MX3.1 in the Chinese market, which is now available for 899 Yuan (US$ 126) at the Tmall store. 

The MX3.1 keyboard features Cherry’s new MX2A switches, offering a choice between Red or Brown switches. Additionally, it is available in three color options: White, Pink, and Black. The keyboard boasts a 108-key layout and is designed with full anti-ghosting capabilities, ensuring that every key press is registered even when multiple keys are pressed simultaneously.

Each key is built to withstand up to 100 million keystrokes. The keycaps are made of high-quality ABS material, ensuring longevity and maintaining their tactile feel over time. It is also equipped with dual independent lighting effects, adding to its aesthetic appeal. The keyboard features a sturdy one-piece aluminum bottom shell frame for durability. It incorporates a dual silencing structure to minimize typing noise. The keyboard also offers RGB backlighting and includes a side RGB module.

The keyboard’s connectivity is facilitated through a USB-C detachable braided cable. The MX2A switches used in this keyboard are designed for stability and high quality, featuring gold crosspoint contact technology and a new barrel-shaped noise-suppressing spring structure. For those interested in the specific switch types, the MX2A Red Switch is known for its direct up and down feel with low actuation force, making it ideal for extended use. The MX2A Brown Switch, on the other hand, offers a soft and gentle feel, providing a comfortable typing experience.

Cherry includes Cherry Utility Software with the MX3.1, which allows users to customize lighting and key settings. Additionally, the MX3.1 comes with a two-year warranty period.
