About

The MX2A Red is Cherry's current take on the classic MX Red: the linear switch most beginners meet first. It presses straight down with no tactile bump and no click: smooth, light (45 cN) and quiet compared to a clicky switch. The MX2A generation is factory-lubed and uses a dust-proof stem for smoother travel. Reds are a sensible default for typing and gaming alike, and because the MX cross stem is the hobby's universal standard, they fit almost any keycap set and hot-swap board.
