At the heart of the MV 3.0 keyboard are the mechanical CHERRY VIOLA switches with V-shape contact system and progressive, cross-linear tactile feel. In combination with the passive, circumferential light ring, the RGB lighting is perfectly enhanced with more than 16 million colors for your advantage. Step up your game with the CHERRY MV 3.0 and see its extraordinary luminosity for yourself!
Bright aluminum design with light ring
With the CHERRY MV 3.0, the elegant aluminum surface and the passive light ring, which runs around the entire housing, ensure an all-round successful look in the truest sense of the word. Together with the CHERRY MV switches, the keyboard glows incomparably bright – a truly eye-catching part of your gaming setup. You can expect a wired keyboard in a minimalist yet stylish and high-quality design. In 2021/2022, the CHERRY MV 3.0 was even awarded the Plus X Award for high quality, design, user-friendliness and ergonomics.
Mechanical VIOLA switches from CHERRY
The CHERRY MV 3.0 gaming keyboard is equipped with bright, mechanical VIOLA switches (MV). This switch is a fully mechanical key switch for keyboards – developed and manufactured in Germany by CHERRY. The V-shape contact system is what makes this switch so unique. The progressive, cross-linear tactile feel ensures pleasant, smooth operation at a low volume. In addition, the CHERRY VIOLA switch offers an ergonomic trailing function and a quick reset for easy typing. The transparent upper part of the housing allows uniform illumination of the entire key cap.
Customize RGB lighting
The CHERRY MV 3.0 impresses with an impressive RGB lighting of over 16 million colors and numerous color games. With the CHERRY button, you can access the CHERRY UTILITY software in seconds, with which you can configure, store and illuminate spectacular lighting effects. Of course, you also have the option of choosing from prefabricated lighting effects. If you have put together your personal effect lighting according to your wishes, you can then save it.
Practical gaming features
In addition to Full-N-Key rollover (simultaneous reading of all keys) and anti-ghosting (no incorrect inputs), the CHERRY MV 3.0 also has a WIN key lock for "game mode". If you accidentally hit the Windows button, the worst case scenario is that the screen freezes while the game continues running. If the WIN key lock is active, this cannot happen to you. You can adjust the angle of inclination of the CHERRY MV 3.0 with the integrated feet, so you are optimally positioned for longer sessions. The removable USB-A to USB-C cable can be easily exchanged for your own desired cable. You can define individual keyboard settings or key macros with the CHERRY UTILITY software.
Make your gaming setup shine with the CHERRY MV 3.0: The circumferential light ring in combination with reliable VIOLA switches with transparent housing top allow the keyboard to shine exceptionally brightly. You can easily replace the removable cable with your own preferred cable and the CHERRY VIOLA keyboard is certainly not lacking useful gaming features. In short: The MV 3.0 offers everything you need to play or work in style.
