United States, 30th Aug 2024, - GravaStar, an innovative leader in the tech industry, announces the launch of its highly anticipated Mercury Keyboard Series, designed specifically for gaming enthusiasts.

Each model will be available in a selection of unique colors, offering a sleek combination of performance and aesthetics for gamers worldwide.
The Mercury Keyboard Series introduces an advanced 75% mechanical gaming keyboard with hot-swappable switches, catering to the specific needs of avid gamers and tech aficionados. With design inspiration drawn from iconic movies like Alien, renowned for its futuristic and otherworldly visuals. Blending elements of liquid metal with sleek, skeletal structures, the keyboards offer a distinctive combination of style and durability. This bold aesthetic not only enhances the series' visual appeal but also sets it apart as a functional, cutting-edge piece of technology.
GravaStar’s Mercury series comes in three distinct models, offering variety in both performance and design. The top-of-the-line Mercury K1 Pro is available in three colors, followed by the Mercury K1, in two colors, and the Mercury K1 Lite, which will be also available in two colors. This range allows customers to choose a keyboard that suits their individual gaming setups and style preferences.
The flagship model, the Mercury K1 Pro, comes in three distinct colors and features a robust aluminum alloy frame, foldable legs for stability, and a high-end FR4 positioning plate. It’s equipped with custom GravaStar x Kailh linear switches, which offer an ultra-responsive gaming experience thanks to a 45gf actuation force and a 1.2 mm actuation point.
