Very flashy keyboard, it is worth having.

This is a nice headset for the price. The Corsair app lets you change the color of the emblems on either side of the headset and you can also change the settings to your liking. There's a mic mute button and a volume control on the left side. The mic also has a red LED on it that flashes when your mic is muted. When you hold the volume control down it toggles surround sound on and off. There's also a female announcer that will say mic/surround on/off.

Overall impression of the keyboard is great. I like the Weight this thing has. RGB are bright, red switches are smooth out the box, and key caps feel good. But only problem I had was trying to use wireless on my PC. Figured out the problem the keyboard is Bluetooth version 3.0 the Bluetooth dongle that was supplied is Bluetooth 2.0. So I wasn’t picking it the signal. I had to purchase another dongle (asus BT500). Got signal right away. I connected it to my iPhone 12 Pro and iPad Air gen 4 no problem.

I've ordered two of these with red switches - one in September and another one in December. The first one was manufactured in June 2020 and was almost perfect in regards to size/typing/sound. The second (top one on the photo) have manufacturing date in September 2020 and it uses different switches/keycaps which in my opinion are inferior to the previous revision. Switches: - The older revision have RK red switches vs. TTC-K switches in the newer revision; - TTC-K switches feel somewhat more scratchy and just a little bit more loud. - Spacebar is rattly when pressed on sides in the second (newer) revision; Keycaps: - Latest revision keycaps have better fonts (thinner and no splits in loop elements of letters); - But they also have sharp ridges and corners while previously key ridges/corners were smoothed out; - Latest keycaps feel like a cheap thin plastic while the previous ones have just 'normal' feel to them (i.e. you don't notice them much); - Older revision have Mac/media related functions printed on the keycaps (but media keys weren't working in win mode anyway). Overall, the latest revision feels definitely inferior - a bit more noisier while typing, noise is more high pitched and resting fingers on it is uncomfortable because of sharp(er) key corners/ridges. Four/five stars for old revision, unfortunately only three stars for the newer one. EDIT (12/27): I forgot to mention the MOST ANNOYING difference - in the old revision Esc/`/~ key works as escape with number keys layout but in the lastest revision escape is bound to Fxx layout. I can probably live with inferior hardware - but this inconsistency in handling one of the most important keys (Esc) is a deal breaker.

IF you have the money for this keyboard, just go ahead and buy it. It's fantastic for gaming and general use. Keys and tactile and clicky, RGB lighting fully customizable and vibrant. Very pleased with this product.

I bought these to spruce up my keyboard a bit, but also because these keys have the shine through markings for the secondary key functions. Installation of the letter keys is a snap. Use the key puller to remove the original keys and then just press in the new ones. The larger keys like the spacebar, enter and shifts take some patience to install. These keys require the stabilizer bars and getting those attached to the key and the keyboard is a bit difficult. After typing on these keys for a few days, I really like the texture of the keys. They are not smooth like the originals, they have a slightly rough feel to them and don't start looking shiny after use. I hesitated buying these at their original price of $30, but when they went on sale for $12 they're a bargain. Having used them now, I'd say they are totally worth the $30. It's just a shame Razer doesn't include them when you buy the keyboard given the high costs.

Decent entry level keyboard for those who want to get into keyboards, or those who need a different feeling to play games on. The yellow switches are Royal Kludge branded, which isn't an issue, just interesting. Switch housing is Kailh style, so an MX style opener won't work. The board itself is on the thinner side, made of thin plastic, which contributes a lot to the flex and overall feel when typing. Yet the lighter material makes this keyboard a good option for portability and travel. Typing experience is alright, not the best but not the worst. Using a thinner board makes the feel less "premium", which could just be a personal preference, but it's definitely prominent. The switches are pretty smooth though, but I opted to lube them further. For the appearance, it looks great! The RGB is decent, and the side RGB is bright enough to reflect off the surface it's on. Software is very straight forward and easy to use, so programming the RGB and macros is very simple. Overall, decent for an entry level board, just wish the build quality was a tad bit better.

The 2.4ghz connection mode is not working for me! And it is unfortunate that I really bought it because I needed this function, I already tried everything and it cannot connect, it only remains flashing the letter "P" non-stop, I am a little annoyed by that and that I had bought the RK 68 standard but it only had bluetooth function and it is not functional for what I need, I really got to illustrate why the keyboard is beautiful and for its price it looks very good quality and durability, it is quite elegant by minimalist, I like it a lot, but I don't want to use it wired in every place I am going to use it, hopefully support can answer me

I love that the keyboard is compact and it clicks, but not obnoxiously like other keyboards. I have tried different light settings and found that the setting that turns the lights on only while physically typing makes the battery last longer. Overall a great purchase

I came from a Corsair K95 Platinum (brown switches) that was a couple of years old to this. It seems like ever couple of years the RGB in my Corsair keyboards just up and dies a slow painful death for no apparent reason which is annoying, and that was the case again. I was in the market for another keyboard and I didn't want to just go and get another Corsair keyboard that will have it's RGB die again. So I did some looking around for a new keyboard, did my research and decided on this amazing keyboard from Steelseries. I'd never owned a Steelseries product before, but the switches on this keyboard came so highly praised I decided to give it a go. Let me tell you this are the most comfortable, most smooth and buttery switches I've ever used. Typing on this keyboard is pure bliss. The keyboard itself is fairly lightweight but it doesn't move around on my desk at all but it's fair smaller than my previous Corsair keyboard. The LED's are very bright and incredibly accurate (so far as I can tell) with respect to color. The keyboard comes with nice feeling PVC keycaps and while I love the font on them, I don't want shiny keycaps in a year or so. I ended up replacing almost all the keycaps on the keyboard with PBT Doubleshot shine through keycaps. I ended up using the HyperX keycaps for "special" keys and Razer keycaps for just about everything else and I really like how it looks. As far as things I don't like... I don't like the cable being not detachable, and I don't like that it's kind of thick. I'm pretty sure I know why they did things the way they did them. But I don't like it anyway. That is a minor thing and on a day to day basis it doesn't really cause any issues for me. The OLED screen is nifty, as far as displaying useful in game information.. I've never used it for that, nor do I think I'd want to. It's just not in a good place to take advantage of that. That said, I customized it with some graphics I like and that suits me. However it's extremely useful for setting up macros and adjusting things on the keyboard without needing the software. The software itself is OK, I'm used to the bloated beast that is iCUE (I have a lot of Corsair products in my build) and I've gotten used to using iCUE. By comparison the Apex software is fairly basic but it seems to do the job ok.

**full video w/ voice explanation is in the videos section of this product! I’d like to preface this by noting that the actual packaging of the box seemed like it took a beating, as evidenced by the black dust (?) marks on it. I had suspicions that it was a returned item but I didn’t notice any issues when I first used it. *I’ve only used it for two days. I was going to wait until I’ve used it for a reasonable amount of time but I’m just a super paranoid person so I have to address this issue in a review. PRO: -fast, tactile clicks -smooth matte coating (prone to attracting sweat but it’s really comfy so whatever haha) -somewhat textured sides, I don’t really give much care to the sides but it’s noticeable -bright rgb lights with good rgb range -braided cables CONS: ***I paid for a NEW product, not refurbished/used. -abused box, seemingly returned item. -attracts sweat, noticeable stain that goes away after a while but makes me wonder if it’ll cause an issue after long term use. -fraying on the cables, though I don’t really care if it doesn’t effect the performance of the mouse. Though obviously, I have my suspicions. -their software, Hyperx Ngenuity, literally makes me want to break down in tears. Where do I even start? I was so excited for this product and it really did perform the way I expected it to but the fact that some rgb effects don’t work really takes away from the excitement. Specifically, the wave and trigger effect does not work. I’ve tried everything; restarting my computer, uninstalling the software, shutting down other rgb programs etc. Nothing worked. I’m not one to care for rgb lighting but the fact that there are defects in the mouse concerns me as this is a telltale sign of malfunctioning in the future. I’d like to also note that I’m a very paranoid person. I’d like to give the benefit of the doubt to hyperx and keep on using this product without concerns but I would rather not take any chances. I’m going to use it for a couple of more days, since it’s New Years & I’m not tryna return it on New Years (I’m not a monster haha), and I’ll see if there’re any other errors that I can catch. I will be returning this product and buying a new one because I love this mouse :) Hopefully I’ll get a better one next time. **rating it as a two star due to the inconvenience + unreliable software the hardware/performance = 4.5/5 :))

Feel: It has yellow switches that feel so comfortable to type on. The sound is amazing, not too loud. Look: I absolutely love the looks and design of this keyboard. The back of the keyboard is very nicely designed, and I love how they relocated the type-C connector. This keyboard looks gorgeous with the LEDs on.

Perfect for Claw position! Links up with any other Corsair LEDs you have as well. Tiny gap before you click on left and right mouse buttons but personally I don't mind it as I press rather stern and quickly. If you're used to an instant click, this may take some time getting used to. Build quality is great and gripy enough. Overall great mouse and love the dedicated 'sniper' button.

Honestly this keyboard is pretty amazing for the price! Not the best out there but definitely reliable, ergonomic, and good for gaming. I was somewhat disappointed to find out there was only blue lighting though. Also comes with keycap remover and a manual. Overall great product :D

A terrific wireless mechanical keyboardthat works perfectly with my Xbox Series X. Especially at this price range. Nice build quality and sound. Switches (mine are brown) are nice and responsive. Nice functionality with the RGB modes and good customization. Very happy with this purchase.
