Logitech’s next MX Mechanical keyboards edge closer to launch, but don’t expect a total overhaul. Two new wireless models have been certified by the FCC in the US, and the filing type points to minor hardware revisions rather than a ground-up redesign of the MX Mechanical and MX Mechanical Mini.
The key detail is a Class II Permissive Change. In FCC terms, that typically means Logitech can update parts of the hardware while keeping the same core product identity and compliance. In practice, that often translates to refinements you can see and feel without changing how the keyboards fundamentally work.
What could change based on the filing:
– Fresh keycap designs or legends to improve readability or feel
– New color options to better match setups and accessories
– Potentially quieter switches for a softer typing sound
What likely won’t change:
– The overall layout and form factor of the MX Mechanical and MX Mechanical Mini
– The fundamental wireless platform, given the “minor revision” nature of the filing
For fans of the MX Mechanical line, this points to a thoughtful polish cycle: small but meaningful tweaks aimed at comfort, acoustics, and aesthetics, rather than a shift to a different switch system or a different body design.
One thing the FCC documents don’t reveal is timing. Certification is a necessary step before shipping, but it doesn’t signal when retail availability will kick off. That means there’s no firm release window attached to these refreshed keyboards yet.
If you’re considering an MX Mechanical, it may be worth watching for these revised versions. Subtle improvements—especially quieter switches and updated keycaps—can make a noticeable difference in daily use, whether you’re coding, writing, or working across multiple devices. Keep an eye on official channels for more details on colors, switch options, and availability as Logitech moves from certification to launch.
