The Cherry G80-3800 is a low-profile full-size keyboard with PCB-mounted Cherry MX switches. It is smaller than the Cherry G80-3000.

The keycaps are new for this keyboard. They are flat and have a different skirt to give the appearance of having low-profile switches. The legends are is reminiscent of other newer boards from Cherry, centred and in the Myriad font. The keycap set is not entirely compatible with any other Cherry G80 keyboard.

Variations

It is available with either Cherry MX Black, Brown, Blue or Red switches.

The available layouts are US-ANSI and Chinese-ANSI, both with Windows keys. It is only available in black with white legends.

A "MX-Board 3.0" with four additional keys for media functions and a removable cable is scheduled to be released in early 2013, initially only with Red switches.

Availability

It is currently available only in Asia, but can be mail-ordered elsewhere.

It is scheduled to be released in Europe.
