SeekerCherry MX Board 3.0 S
The Cherry MX Board 3.0 S does what it’s supposed to do: lets you type on a mechanical keyboard without bothering the person sitting next to you. It even adds customizable RGB and a nice aluminum case for flair. Unfortunately, a mediocre typing experience and an annoying amount of ping leave us feeling lukewarm.

Product details

- The CHERRY MX BOARD 3.0 S stands for speed and performance. Whether in the home office, office, or gaming, at the end of the day, this keyboard is the ideal partner when it comes to precision.
