Akko Unveils the Year of the Snake Keyboard at IFA 2025

Akko, the global innovator in peripheral devices, has officially launched its latest mechanical keyboard, the "Year of the Snake," at the IFA 2025 event in Berlin. Following the immense success of last year’s acclaimed "Year of the Dragon" model, this new keyboard embodies Akko's vision of blending cultural heritage with modern industrial design. The unveiling has garnered significant attention from gamers, enthusiasts, and media worldwide, further solidifying Akko's position as a leader in the peripheral industry.

Unique Designs Inspired by Cultural Heritage

The "Year of the Snake" collection features three distinct designs, the most iconic being the Xuanwu version. Xuanwu is a mythical figure in Chinese culture, symbolizing wisdom and protection. The keyboard's construction from a CNC aluminum alloy, coupled with intricate engraving techniques, reflects Akko's extraordinary craftsmanship. In addition to the visually striking design, the keyboard's ergonomic Alice layout and premium Akko switches provide a comfortable typing experience, making it suitable for long-term use.

Advancing Magnetic Switch Technology

In addition to the new keyboard, Akko is accelerating its innovation efforts in the global market with its magnetic switch product line, featuring two flagship models: the M1 V5 TMR and the MOD 007 V5 HE. Both models are designed to deliver eSports-level responsiveness and a top-tier typing and gaming experience. Notably, these prototypes will also be available in ISO versions to cater to the needs of international users. Akko’s magnetic switch technology now includes both HE and TMR solutions and is continuously being expanded to cover various layouts, including 60%, 68%, 75% TKL, and Alice, thereby fulfilling the diverse demands of competitive gamers and developers around the globe.

Launching New High-End Product Lines

Besides the groundbreaking magnetic switch technology, Akko showcased two new high-end product series at the IFA: the Gem and Mineral series. These collections extend the brand's design language, highlighting Akko’s capability to merge artistic aesthetics with advanced technology, offering users a completely new experience.

As Akko celebrates its ninth anniversary, the company remains dedicated to a dual vision. It draws inspiration from traditional culture while integrating contemporary trends to drive product innovation. Akko is simultaneously committed to being at the forefront of the development and application of magnetic switch technology, showcasing that keyboards are not merely functional tools; they are also cultural expressions, performance-oriented instruments, and symbols of individuality.

Akko warmly invites all attendees to experience their latest innovations firsthand at IFA 2025, Hall 5.2, Booth 143. For more details, visit akkogear.eu or akkogear.de.
