The linear switch activates after just a millimeter or so of travel, and since it's not clicky this can be quite a quiet set of keys - if you're a light typist. That's not to say it's a bad keyboard to the contrary, the low-slung keys feel very nice to type on, and the laser-etched lettering looks sharp. This is one of this board's defining features, and it's a real love-it-or-hate-it design choice. The Cherry MX 10.0N RGB comes with Cherry MX Low Profile RGB Speed key switches, which sit lower to the keyboard than any I've ever used. The USB-C end plugs into the keyboard while the USB-A end goes to your PC (so you'll need an adapter if you don't have any free USB-A ports), and the cable can be detached from both and packed up for easier travel.

Similarly nice to have is the removable USB-C to USB-A cable which comes with the keyboard. It's nice to have, and easy to ignore if you don't like using it. This lets you change the angle you're typing at, raising the rear of the keyboard up off the desk a smidge or lowering it down to lay flat based on your preference.

Along the rear of the keyboard is a slim stand, also of black aluminum, that folds out and down when you lift the keyboard up.
