Cherry KC 6000 Keyboard and MC 4900 Mouse Review - Unboxing & Overview

We start, as always, with an unboxing of the products, and a quick overview (if relevant) of the specs/internals. I get the feeling this section might be fairly brief.

  

   

We can start with the keyboard, which comes in a deceptively heavy box, given the size of what it actually contains. Cherry's approach to both packaging and unboxing is, I would say, very Germanic. Very to the point, no fuss, and get the job done. To that effect, the exterior packaging of the keyboard is almost exactly as one would expect. A reduced in scale image of the actual products adorns the entire front of the box, with not even a product name in sight. Flip it over, and we get that elusive product name, typed in appropriately muted and skinny font. There is something to be said for 'less is more', and with most modern packaging of computer components being very... uh, 'bold,' sometimes it is nice to unveil something that goes in the other direction.

 

 

The back of the KB's box basically reiterates what you will find on Cherry's site, so there isn't any more to look at here. Opening it up, and... well, I will confess that I did actually test this product (and the mouse) before I took photos of it. The original unboxing, however, was much akin to what you see here. The keyboard nested in bubble wrap, the USB cable tucked away and zip-tied up underneath a cardboard... cover? You get an instruction manual, and that is it. I mean, for what you're paying, I don't think including anything extra would have been either wanted or necessary. The boxing job does well enough, and it's all one needs.

 

The mouse actually is very similar, if not even more plain. There is no product photo anywhere, though we do - this time - get the product name on the front of the box. Why not, to be fair, save money on printing costs? Unboxing the mouse is similarly plain, with the product itself found inside bubble wrap (bonus points, Cherry, I love bubble wrap). There is a multi-language instruction manual, which - helpfully - directs the user toward the online available driver if the PC the mouse is plugged into isn't running Windows 10, and therefore doesn't automatically fetch the driver itself. That really is it for the unboxing. Told you it would be short.

  

  

All in all, I really didn't expect (or want) anything more. They're simple products, packaged simply, and that is fine. Naturally, there is a fairly stark difference between 'just minimalist' and 'premium minimalist', and this is the former, but I see no reason why Cherry would need to do anything else?
