CHERRY XTRFY introduces magnetic switch keyboards with TMR technology
01/2026 - ๊ฐ์๋ก ๋์๊ฐ๊ธฐ
CHERRY XTRFY enters the magnetic keyboard segment with TMR technology. MX 8.2 Pro TMR Wireless launches in January, followed by the K5 Pro TMR this spring.
In time for CES 2026, CHERRYโs gaming peripherals brand CHERRY XTRFY announces its first keyboards with magnetic switches. Unlike manufacturers relying on Hall effect sensing, CHERRY uses tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) technology, delivering greater precision and significantly lower power consumption. For gamers, that means going wireless without sacrificing the performance or customizability of a magnetic keyboard.
โThe demand for magnetic switch keyboards keeps growing, but with TMR, weโre taking it further. The MX 8.2 Pro TMR delivers ultra-fast wireless performance and everything users expect from a magnetic keyboard, but with higher precision and more flexibility. With hot-swap support for both magnetic and mechanical switches, the typing experience can be customized in more ways than ever. And this is just the beginning. Weโre expanding the TMR lineup with the K5 Pro TMR keyboard this springโ, says Joakim Jansson, Director of Product Management at CHERRY.
CHERRY XTRFY MX 8.2 Pro TMR Wireless. More than magnetic.
The MX 8.2 Pro TMR Wireless is a sturdy tenkeyless keyboard with an aluminum top frame and PBT keycaps. Inside, CHERRY MK Crystal Magnetic switches are powered by advanced TMR sensing, registering input with 0.01 mm precision. All with a smooth, linear typing feel.
Thanks to TMRโs efficiency, the keyboard runs wirelessly with an 8000 Hz polling rate. Reporting up to eight times every millisecond, it enables your computer to react faster to every keystroke.
With CHERRY MagCrate software, every keystroke is customizable, from actuation points to assigning multiple actions to a single key based on press depth or duration. It gives gamers the control and features needed to improve their play.
The keyboard also features dual hot-swap support, allowing you to switch between magnetic and mechanical switches across most keys. Built in a compact TKL layout, the MX 8.2 Pro TMR Wireless is designed for competitive gaming and everyday performance alike.
CHERRY XTRFY K5 Pro TMR. Magnetic precision in a compact format.
The K5 Pro TMR builds on the popular K5 keyboard โ known for its high level of customization โ with a new magnetic switch setup. This corded model features CHERRY MK Crystal Magnetic switches with TMR sensing, offering improved precision and expanded customizability through CHERRY MagCrate software. With a compact 65% layout, it caters to gamers who prefer a smaller footprint.
In addition to the switch upgrade, the K5 Pro TMR raises the polling rate from 1000 Hz to 8000 Hz. The result is a performance-focused addition to the TMR series, complementing it with a new size and price point.
Availability and pricing.
The MX 8.2 Pro TMR Wireless will be launched on January 29th, with an RRP of 229,99 EUR (GBP 199,99). The K5 Pro TMR Compact is scheduled to launch this spring, with pricing to be announced closer to the release date.
