Mechanical keyboards have gone from niche enthusiast products to a trusted mainstay for most even slightly serious about their PC gaming. It's all about those mechanical keys, and Cherry switches have been a prized choice throughout every step of this journey into the mainstream. A good mechanical keyboard fitted with Cherry switches used to be a huge purchase but thankfully, with wider adoption, prices have become more reasonable. It's now possible to get the new Cherry Xtrfy K4V2 TKL complete with mecha switches for under $130 USD/$200 AUD. But the question is, with so much competition, is it worth it?
The K4V2 TKL comes in three different colour options: black, white, or a retro themed grey, like the one I've got in front of me for this review. It evokes memories of some very old school gaming with its two toned grey look, highlighted with vibrant red accent keys. It's enough to draw a double take for any computer that isn't a Commodore 64.
