Cherry Xtrfy reveals K5 Pro TMR Compact keyboard with MK Crystal magnetic switches

Cherry Xtrfy has announced the K5 Pro TMR Compact gaming keyboard, featuring Cherry MK Crystal Magnetic switches and Tunnel Magnetoresistance (TMR) sensing technology, designed for high precision and fast response times in competitive gaming.

As you might know, TMR technology captures small changes in the magnetic field, providing users with millimetre precision. According to Cherry Xtrfy, this technology provides greater precision than standard Hall-effect sensing.

The K5 Pro TMR Compact uses an 8000Hz polling rate to transmit signals to the PC up to 8 times per millisecond. The internal construction includes a metal plate, multi-layer damping, and pre-lubricated PCB-mounted stabilisers to reduce vibration. The switches are hot-swappable, allowing easy replacement with other magnetic switches.

Users can manage keystroke parameters in Cherry MagCrate software, which allows adjusting actuation points and assigning multiple functions to a single key based on press depth.

The Cherry Xtrfy K5 Pro TMR Compact is available now, priced at €149.99.

KitGuru says: If you were in the market for a 65% keyboard, would you consider Cherry Xtrfy's new K5 Pro TMR Compact?
