Buttery Smooth. Lightning Fast. Seriously Lekker! ๐Ÿ“โŒจ๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Give Your Mechanical Keyboard a Fresh Burst of Raspberry Goodness!

Love the satisfying feel of a mechanical keyboard but prefer your keypresses smooth, effortless, and free from those chunky tactile bumps?

Well, bru, NuPhy has a sweet little upgrade for you! ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Meet the NuPhy Raspberry Linear Mechanical Keyboard Switches โ€“ premium normal-profile switches designed to bring smooth, responsive typing and excellent customisation potential to your favourite mechanical keyboard.

Part of NuPhy's Herb Series, the Raspberry switches combine a 46gf operating force, short 1.2mm pre-travel, factory lubrication, and a 21mm single-stage spring for a beautifully responsive typing experience.

Whether you're gaming, coding, writing, or building your dream mechanical keyboard, these little switches offer the smooth linear feel that enthusiasts love.

And with their five-pin MX-style mounting design, they're a fantastic upgrade for a wide range of compatible keyboards.

Sweet name. Smooth switches. Serious keyboard happiness! ๐Ÿ“

Buttery-Smooth Linear Typing. No Bumps. No Clicks! โœจ

Not everybody wants their mechanical keyboard to sound like a typewriter having a midlife crisis.

Sometimes you just want smooth, consistent keypresses.

And that's exactly what Raspberry switches are designed to deliver!

Unlike tactile switches, which feature a noticeable bump during travel, Raspberry switches use a linear mechanism.

That means the key moves smoothly through its travel without a deliberate tactile bump or click mechanism.

The result is a consistent, fluid keystroke that's excellent for fast-paced gaming and everyday typing.

Smooth on the way down. Smooth on the way up. Proper lekker!

46gf Operating Force. Light, Responsive & Comfortable! ๐ŸŽฏ

The Raspberry features a manufacturer-rated 46 ยฑ 15gf operating force, creating a relatively light and responsive typing feel.

This makes it a great option for enthusiasts who enjoy switches that don't require excessive finger pressure.

Whether you're working through a mountain of emails or enjoying an extended gaming session, the Raspberry offers a smooth mechanical experience.

Its relatively light operating force also makes it an interesting option for users who prefer quick, effortless key movement.

Your fingers have enough work to do, bru. Give them something smooth!

1.2mm Pre-Travel. Quick on the Draw! โšก

Here's where things get particularly interesting for gamers.

The NuPhy Raspberry features a short 1.2 ยฑ 0.3mm pre-travel distance.

That's the distance the key travels before the switch registers an input.

Compared with traditional switches featuring approximately 2mm of pre-travel, the Raspberry actuates earlier in its movement.

This can make the switch feel particularly responsive during rapid keypresses.

Whether you're gaming, typing quickly, or navigating your favourite applications, the short pre-travel provides a lively typing character.

Quick fingers meet quick switches. Game on! ๐ŸŽฎ

21mm Single-Stage Spring. Smoothness With a Little Spring in Its Step! โš™๏ธ

Behind every great mechanical switch is a carefully engineered spring.

The Raspberry features a 21mm single-stage spring, designed to contribute to its smooth resistance and return characteristics.

Combined with the linear mechanism, the spring helps create a consistent typing feel throughout the keypress.

Whether you're tapping lightly or pressing keys all the way down, the Raspberry is designed to feel controlled and responsive.

It's the kind of detail mechanical keyboard enthusiasts appreciate.

Tiny spring. Big responsibility. Loads of typing happiness!

Factory Pre-Lubricated. Smooth Straight Out of the Box! ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ

Love a smooth mechanical keyboard but don't fancy spending your entire weekend lubricating tiny switches?

Good news!

The Raspberry switches come factory pre-lubricated.

This helps reduce friction between moving components, contributing to smoother operation and a more refined sound.

Factory lubrication also helps minimise certain unwanted mechanical noises.

That means you can install the switches into a compatible keyboard and start enjoying their intended typing feel without manually lubricating every single switch.

Less fiddling. More gaming. Maximum lekker!

A Clean, Refined Sound Profile. Music to Your Fingertips! ๐ŸŽต

Mechanical keyboard enthusiasts know that typing sound is part of the fun.

And while the Raspberry doesn't feature a dedicated click mechanism, it still has its own mechanical character.

Its linear design and factory lubrication help produce a smooth typing experience without the intentional click of a Blue-style switch.

The final sound depends on your keyboard's case, mounting system, plate, keycaps, and internal acoustic materials.

With the right setup, Raspberry switches can produce a wonderfully satisfying mechanical typing sound.

No clicky chaos. Just smooth mechanical goodness!

Five-Pin MX-Style Mounting. Custom Keyboard Heaven! โŒจ๏ธ

Love customising your mechanical keyboard?

NuPhy has you covered!

The Raspberry features a five-pin MX-style mounting design, making it compatible with many normal-profile mechanical keyboards.

The additional plastic alignment pins help position the switch in compatible PCB layouts.

For supported hot-swappable keyboards, you can replace existing switches without soldering.

Simply remove your old switches with a suitable switch puller and carefully install your Raspberry switches.

It's an excellent way to refresh your keyboard without buying an entirely new one.

Your keyboard. Your switches. Your rules!
