Wireless Gaming Keyboard Cherry MX 8.2 Pro TMR — Tenkeyless 88-key, USB + RF + Bluetooth, Magnetic-mechanical switches, RGB, Silver/White

Cherry MX 8.2 Pro TMR is a tenkeyless (88-key) wireless gaming keyboard that combines magnetic-mechanical CHERRY MK switches with full wired and wireless connectivity. The compact, straight form-factor keyboard uses advanced TMR sensing for high-precision actuation and supports USB, 2.4 GHz RF and Bluetooth connections. Built for low power consumption, the keyboard features an integrated high-capacity battery, per-key RGB backlighting, hot-swap support between magnetic and mechanical switches and a QWERTY US International layout suitable for gaming and responsive typing.

Advantages

The MX 8.2 Pro TMR delivers ultra-fast input reporting with an 8000 Hz polling rate across wired and wireless modes, enabling minimal latency for competitive play. TMR magnetic sensing provides fine actuation accuracy (measuring tiny changes in resistance rather than using Hall sensors), which results in precise triggering and lower power draw. Hot-swap compatibility between CHERRY MK magnetic and MX mechanical switches gives flexibility to choose linear magnetic feel for gaming or tactile mechanical switches for typing. Additional features include onboard memory via CHERRY MagCrate software for per-key adjustments, customizable RGB lighting and durable PBT keycaps with multi-layer sound dampening for a refined typing profile.

How to use

Connect the keyboard to your computer using the included USB cable for wired mode or pair it with a receiver for 2.4 GHz RF or with a device over Bluetooth for wireless use. Install CHERRY MagCrate software to customize per-key actuation points, enable features such as Dynamic Key Travel (DKS), Mod Tap and SnapKey, program macros and configure RGB lighting. Hot-swap switches by removing keycaps and the switch module from the PCB to replace magnetic or mechanical switches as required; follow anti-static precautions and consult the user manual for the correct removal method.

Recommendations

For lowest latency in competitive play, use the 2.4 GHz RF connection or wired USB with the polling rate set to 8000 Hz. Charge the keyboard before extended sessions; the 8000 mAh battery supports long use between charges but performance is consistent when plugged in. Use CHERRY MagCrate to store profiles onboard for quick switching between gaming and productivity setups. When hot-swapping switches, power off the keyboard or disconnect it to avoid accidental input and ensure proper alignment of switch pins to prolong switch and PCB life.
