Cherry Blue RGB Mechanical Switches

If you’re here on Drop, you probably don’t need us to give you all that much context for the Cherry MX color scale, but in this run we’re highlighting something a bit more specific. The Cherry MX RGB line of switches takes everything you know and love about the standard MX line—solid, stainless steel springs, MX-style stems, and top-tier manufacturing—and makes it transparently awesome by putting it all in a backlight-friendly, see-through housing. The Blue switches here bring clicky action alongside a substantial, audible feedback—making them an excellent choice for long typing sessions. The 50 grams required to operate this keycap ensure enough resistance for assertive toppers, while the 4 millimeters of total travel ensure plenty of distance for a satisfying feel. It’s the tried-and-true Cherry MX Blue—only see-through.
