Additionally, the Razer Blade Pro is the first notebook to utilize Razer’s Ultra-Low-Profile Mechanical switches. Each switch features a true actuation and reset point. Presses are registered with 65 grams of force, mimicking the feel of full-size mechanical keyboards. The keyboard and trackpad are also Powered by Razer Chroma™. This technology unlocks a virtually endless array of dazzling lighting effects that can be customized by the user or synced to display in-game events.

Also, did we ever figure out who actually made the Razer ULP Mechanical switch? It's not the Kailh low-profile switch - this looks like a scissor-stabilized keycap, on top of a generic tact switch of some kind.

Here's the force graph from the old iPad keyboard, FWIW (edited to include a black background, thank you, Razer, for making it transparent):



I believe that's even shorter throw than the Kailh low-profile switch, too.

There was the TTC switch, but it looked different.
