Cherry launches their KC 6000 SLIM keyboard

While the Cherry KC 6000 SLIM is not a mechanical keyboard, it maintains the same levels of precision and style that only German engineering can provide, delivering consumers a slim design that is built around a sturdy metallic plate to offer a long service life. The KC 6000 SLIM is designed for office use, with an integrated numpad and LEDs for the capslock, numpad and scroll lock keys alongside audio control keys.   

The KC6000 SLIM uses an SX scissor key mechanism to offer a low maximum depth of 15mm when stored, something that the company’s bulkier MX and MX Slim keycaps cannot match. The keycaps themselves are also laser engraved for increased abrasion resistance with the keyboard itself offering a two-year warranty. 

Availability of Cherry’s KC 6000 Slim will start in May, with retail pricing of £35 in the UK. €40 in the EU and $50 in the US, shipping with both white keycaps and a silver housing and black keycaps with black casing.
