Cherry MX Ultra Low Profile Tactile is a tactile mechanical switch from Cherry released in June 2022 with a 52 gf operating force and 0.8 mm pre-travel and 1.8 mm total travel.
Three focused profiles from published switch specifications. No overall score is generated because feel and use case are personal.
Measures actuation, travel, and force. Shorter, lighter movement favors speed. Advanced input features add capability.
Measures bump or click intensity. It uses feel type and tactile-force rise. Higher scores mean stronger feedback.
Measures published lifespan evidence. It uses documented construction details. It does not predict real-world reliability.

The Cherry MX Ultra Low Profile Tactile is a Mechanical switch from Cherry with a Tactile feel, so its keypress character is primarily defined by that mechanism and feedback style.
The Cherry MX Ultra Low Profile Tactile has an operating force of 52 gf. That sits in the common middle range for everyday typing and gaming.
The Cherry MX Ultra Low Profile Tactile has a pre-travel of 0.80 mm. Shorter actuation distances usually feel quicker because the key registers earlier in the press.
The Cherry MX Ultra Low Profile Tactile has a total travel distance of 1.80 mm. Total travel describes the full stroke from rest to bottom-out.
The Cherry MX Ultra Low Profile Tactile lists tactile force: 65 gf, tactile position: 0.80 mm. These specs describe how noticeable the bump or click feels during a keypress.
The Cherry MX Ultra Low Profile Tactile lists bottom housing: Proprietary metal-alloy base frame, stem: Polymer actuator, contact: MX Gold Crosspoint. These parts influence feel, sound, wobble, and long-term switch consistency.
