Keyboard manufacturer Cherry wants to eradicate this problem once and for all with its new switch. Thus, the MX Ultra Low Profile is supposed to be another 70 percent flatter than the MX Low Profile. Considering that the MX Low Profile is already one of the flattest on the market, this is a real revolution in the field of mechanical keyboards. The final height of the new switch should then be just 3.5 mm.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-173479 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-medium'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/basic-tutorials.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/7ULP_Aufs.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"390\" height=\"390\" src=\"https:\/\/basic-tutorials.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/7ULP_Aufs-390x390.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-173458\" srcset=\"https:\/\/basic-tutorials.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/7ULP_Aufs-390x390.jpg 390w, https:\/\/basic-tutorials.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/7ULP_Aufs-220x220.jpg 220w, https:\/\/basic-tutorials.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/7ULP_Aufs.jpg 525w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 390px) 100vw, 390px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-173458'>\n\t\t\t\tBild: Cherry\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/basic-tutorials.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/12ULP_Unterseite.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"390\" height=\"390\" src=\"https:\/\/basic-tutorials.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/12ULP_Unterseite-390x390.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-173455\" srcset=\"https:\/\/basic-tutorials.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/12ULP_Unterseite-390x390.jpg 390w, https:\/\/basic-tutorials.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/12ULP_Unterseite-220x220.jpg 220w, https:\/\/basic-tutorials.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/12ULP_Unterseite.jpg 525w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 390px) 100vw, 390px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-173455'>\n\t\t\t\tBild: Cherry\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>Despite the low height, the MX Ultra Low Profile is supposed to be able to offer a typing feel similar to that of the MX Blue. The click, which is popular with many, is also supposed to be present. Even though the typing feel is supposed to be the same as its predecessor, the construction of the MX Ultra Low Profile is completely different from the classic MX switches. The basis of the new switch is a metal frame. Cherry places a metal bracket on this, which is connected to the frame with a metal spring. The spring provides the appropriate resistance when pressing the button.<\/p>\n<h2>Can also be used in notebooks<\/h2>\n<p>With their new ultra-thin switches, the experts at Cherry can now finally make mechanical keyboards possible in notebooks. This should especially please the gaming community. After all, the popularity of gaming notebooks is steadily increasing. A big advantage is the fact that the MX Ultra Low Profile can probably be soldered directly onto a notebook&#8217;s PCB. Thus, even ultra-slim notebooks should be able to have mechanical keyboards in the future. The new switches are supposed to celebrate their premiere in Alienware&#8217;s new gaming laptops, m15 R4 and m17 R4. We are curious how the keyboard will perform in the Alienware notebook.<\/p><div class=\"losgehts-inhalt losgehts-entity-placement\" style=\"text-align: center;\" id=\"losgehts-3909120984\"><div class=\"losgehts-adlabel\">Anzeige<\/div><div id=\"losgehts-96223935\"><a data-bid=\"1\" data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/basic-tutorials.de\/linkout\/397415\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" class=\"notrack\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"LC-Power_300x250\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/basic-tutorials.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/LC-Power_300x250.jpg\" alt=\"\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/basic-tutorials.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/LC-Power_300x250.jpg 300w, https:\/\/basic-tutorials.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/LC-Power_300x250-220x183.jpg 220w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" width=\"300\" height=\"250\"   \/><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The keyboard experts from Cherry have presented an almost revolutionary switch.
