GravaStar, a brand known for its cyberpunk-inspired designs, has launched its new Magnetic Hall Effect gaming keyboard range in Australia, promising superior speed and customisation for competitive players. This new Mercury V75 series replaces traditional mechanical switches with magnetic sensors to achieve what the company calls unparalleled responsiveness and durability. The core benefit of this technology is its customisable actuation point, which allows gamers to fine-tune the keypress distance required to register an input.
KEY SPECS
The flagship device in the lineup is the Mercury V75 Pro, a 75% layout keyboard designed for esports professionals. It is engineered with GravaStar x Gateron Magnetic Jade Gaming Hall Effect switches, boasting an extreme 0.005mm precision for ultra-sensitive key response. Performance is top-tier, featuring a True 8000Hz USB polling rate which slashes latency to a near-instantaneous 0.125ms. A key feature across the series is the adjustable trigger depth, which can be set in 0.1mm increments from 0.1mm to 3.5mm, alongside Dynamic Rapid Trigger, which allows keys to reset on upward travel for fluid, rapid-fire input. The V75 Pro features a full-aluminium alloy frame for durability and style, with per-key RGB backlighting.
Stepping down, the Mercury V75 HE maintains the crucial performance metrics of the Pro, including the 8000Hz polling rate and 0.005mm precision, but features GravaStar x Gateron Magnetic Jade Pro switches and a semi-aluminium frame to hit a more wallet-friendly price point. Finally, the entry-level Mercury V75 Lite is built with a fully transparent premium plastic body, offering accessibility for casual players. It uses a custom GravaStar Blackcore switch with 0.01mm precision, and while it shares the adjustable actuation and rapid trigger features, its maximum polling rate is not explicitly detailed as 8000Hz. All models in the series feature a hot-swappable design for easy switch changes and a five-layer acoustic foam system to minimise keystroke vibrations.
