Gaming keyboards have changed rapidly in recent years. At one time merely a slab of slick keys and LEDs, thanks to new types of key switches, it's now possible to offer features tailored to the modern gamer, such as rapid trigger and adjustable actuation. Most keyboard manufacturers haven't missed the memo either—there's a vast swathe of options to choose from. Now, it's Ducky's turn to wade into the pond with the Ducky One X.
Before you think it, the One X doesn't use the Hall effect. The magnetic switches found in most of today's top competitive gaming keyboards—SteelSeries' OmniPoint 3.0, Wooting's Lekker, Corsair's MGX HyperDrive, Logitech's Magnetic Analog, and so on—all largely rely on what's known as the Hall effect to operate their speedy switches. But Ducky don't. Instead, Ducky's is a 'world's first' inductive switch.
