It investment is certainly worthwhile.”
Cherry MX Board 6.0
Expensive
Fixed USB cable
Expensive for a keyboard without RGB backlighting

I have been using the MX Board 6.0 as my main keyboard for the past 3 weeks and I have to say I am really enjoying it. It has to be one of the most comfortable keyboards that I've used in a very long time. I think a lot of it has to do with the quality of...
In most regards, the Cherry MX Board 6.0 completes exactly what it sets out to be – a durable, professional keyboard, but it does fall short of the competition which is something I'd like to see Cherry iron out for the next iteration.As someone with a mul...

After connecting the MX Board 6.0 to our gaming machine, we navigated to the CHERRY website in order to check out what software is in store for this particular keyboard. We were quite surprised to see that there is no additional GUI for remapping the key...
No nonsense board focuses on performance, not flashy lights, ultra-fast gaming response, no software required for control of keys or lighting,
Astronomical price, Cherry MX Red switches are an odd choice for a keyboard aimed at professionals, overlytacky wrist rest, soso styling

I always try to use every keyboard that we review as my personal keyboard for at least a week. My typical weekly usage includes a lot of typing (about 100-150 pages), a few hours of gaming and some casual usage, such as internet browsing and messaging. Ch...
The MX Board 6.0 is a great keyboard with a sturdy design that is flags all boxes green. The metal feel combined with Cherry switches make this a grand product. It's a terrific keyboard to type on (aside from noise) and gaming wise it is very responsive...
Marketing hype aside, the CHERRY MX Board 6.0 is a solid piece of German engineering. It does seem to have a bit of an identity crisis, appealing to gamers but targeted to professionals, and let's not forget the rather extreme $219 price tag. I love th...
Going into this I wasn't really sure what to expect with the MX Board 6.0, the 3.0 was a great keyboard but it was a little on the boring side. Even just getting into the packaging I could tell this was something a little different from Cherry. They made...
