This version features Cherry MX Brown switches. Keyboards with Cherry MX Brown switches strike a balance between a pure gaming keyboard and an ideal typing keyboard. When pressing the keys, you must overcome a slight resistance that provides noticeable feedback upon activation. Since the two closely spaced actuation points can be easily felt, you not only type noticeably faster but can also trigger multiple clicks in quick succession with minimal travel distance.

The casing of the Ducky One 2 SF gaming keyboard is two-toned: while the top is black, the frame and bottom of the keyboard are white. The keycaps are made from polybutylene terephthalate, or PBT for short, produced using the double-shot method, making them significantly more durable than keys made from ABS (acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene).

The highlight of the Ducky One 2 SF gaming keyboard is undoubtedly its professional RGB LED lighting, which allows for virtually endless customization options. It offers a total of twelve different lighting modes, each more unique than the last. The special feature of Ducky keyboards lies primarily in the completely software-free configuration of the RGB lighting. All settings and changes can be made using various key combinations.
