QWERTY: The CHERRY XTRFY MX 8.2 Pro TMR Wireless is a tenkeyless magnetic mechanical gaming keyboard with hot-swappable CHERRY MK CRYSTAL switches and three connection modes.

At a glance

Three connection modes are claimed: 2.4 GHz wireless, cable and Bluetooth, with one device assigned to each mode.
The listing claims 8000 Hz polling in wireless and cable modes. This is a manufacturer-stated specification, not an independently verified result.
CHERRY MagCrate software is listed for per-key trigger adjustment, Rapid Trigger, Dynamic Keystroke, Mod Tap, macros and RGB controls.
The manufacturer claims a 8000 mAh battery and up to 300 hours of use depending on settings. It also says the keyboard can be used while charging.
PBT keycaps and five-layer sound damping are presented as design features. The claimed quieter typing character is not an independent measurement.

Pros and cons

Pros

Hot-swappable magnetic switches and per-key trigger settings allow substantial adjustment for gaming preferences.
Bluetooth, 2.4 GHz RF and cable connections give options for different devices and setups.
The tenkeyless layout keeps the keyboard narrower than a full-size model while retaining a UK QWERTY configuration.
The claimed 8000 mAh battery and use-while-charging support may suit longer sessions away from a fixed cable.

Cons

The tenkeyless layout omits a dedicated number pad, which may be inconvenient for frequent data entry.
The listing specifies that the keyboard is not water resistant, so spills require care.

What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

Battery life is stated as up to 300 hours but depends on chosen settings. The 8000 Hz polling claim applies to wireless and cable modes, not Bluetooth. The connectivity details list USB-A while the contents list a USB-A to USB-C cable, so check the intended cable connection and host port before buying.

The supplied evidence contains aggregate ratings only, with a small sample skewed towards four- and five-star scores. This is a generally favourable but limited signal, and it does not show which features customers liked or identify specific concerns. It cannot confirm the keyboard's claimed polling rate, battery life or switch performance.

Frequently asked questions

Does the MX 8.2 Pro TMR Wireless have a UK layout?

The listing identifies a UK layout and QWERTY keyboard. It also specifies 88 keys.

Which connection options are listed?

The manufacturer describes 2.4 GHz RF, Bluetooth and cable modes. It claims 8000 Hz polling in wireless and cable modes. The listing's USB-A connection detail and USB-A to USB-C cable entry do not clearly establish the host-side cable arrangement, so check port compatibility.

How long does the battery last?

The manufacturer claims up to 300 hours from its 8000 mAh battery, depending on settings. This is not an unconditional runtime for every connection or lighting configuration.

Can the switches be replaced?

The listing describes the CHERRY MK CRYSTAL switches as hot-swappable and says they can be replaced with other magnetic or mechanical switches. Check compatibility before selecting replacements.
