A great mechanical keyboard that comes with some surprises
I bought the Cherry MX version for $200 before tax. 5 stars, easily, but there’s some stuff you should know before buying.The great stuff:- durable, high-quality build- beautiful to look at- the volume wheel is remarkably useful for games and videos- the clicky sound of the Cherry MX provides pleasing feedback- the wrist pad is very comfortable and attached securely with magnetsStuff you should know:- The K100 has two USB cables. You can plug your mouse into the keyboard, but you still need to plug the two USB cables from the keyboard into your computer.- Corsair does not seem to guarantee compatibility with any KVM switch. I took a chance on “UGREEN USB 3.0 Switch Selector 4 Port 2 Computers Peripheral Switcher Adapter Hub for PC Printer Scanner Mouse Keyboard with One Button Switch and 2 Pack USB Male Cable” (ASIN B01N6GD9JO), and it has worked flawlessly. In my setup, I plug the two keyboard cables into the front of the KVM switch, and run one USB cable from the back to my PC and another one out the back to my laptop. I have a mouse plugged into the keyboard. I do not run the monitor through the KVM switch, opting instead to have two cables from the monitor, one to the PC, and one to the laptop.- Coming from a rubber dome keyboard (Logitech G15), the keys on the Corsair K100 felt incredibly sensitive to the touch. As someone who uses the keyboard to write computer code, I initially found this frustrating, as a very light press on a key could cause a character to register many times (like “cccccccccccc”). I could see how someone might want to ditch the keyboard immediately, but after about two or three weeks, I managed to retrain myself to avoid those “heavy finger” mistakes.- I don’t use the wheel on the upper left of the keyboard. I don’t use the G-macro keys.- There are a lot of preset color patterns. I settled on one after the novelty of the options wore off.- I don’t find the shifting color pattern to be at all distracting, even while concentrating on writing computer code. It’s pretty.- The keys have stylized symbols, which can be a little unusual if you have to hunt for a rarely-used key or if a child is trying to type on the keyboard. The biggest offender to me is the ampersand (&) on the “7” key.The bad stuff:- Not much, except that the keys may feel too sensitive if you haven’t used a Cherry MX keyboard before, and your mileage may vary as to whether you can adapt to one. So $200+ for a keyboard that may end up frustrating you could be a risky proposition. I read the terms for returning the keyboard, and it doesn’t look like you can return it once you’ve opened it. (Maybe you can, but that’s how I interpreted the terms.) So be sure that you like sensitive keyboards or have confidence that you can adapt.- There is a Corsair logo on the wrist pad that kind of looks like it is on a piece of tap that should peel off. It isn’t. The placement of the logo slightly annoys me, but maybe that’s just me.Overall, a great keyboard and a happy purchase.

Amazing Product – Best keyboard I’ve ever owned
TL;DR – 10/10. Premium price, but premium quality in return.I will admit that I was a little hesitant about getting a wireless keyboard, mostly because of battery life and dropped connections. My job sometimes requires me to act quickly to fix an issue, and I was worried about the connection suddenly dropping when I was racing against the clock. I had a Corsair K70 and loved it, but it was getting old and had started acting up on me so I thought I would take a shot on this one. Oh boy, am I impressed. The keys feel incredible, the battery life is fantastic, and the connection is solid with no noticeable input delay. The “Slipstream” wireless receiver can pair multiple Corsair products as well, so you don’t need to take up multiple ports if you like their product line.Pros:- Battery lasts me several days, working 8 hours a day and typically gaming or browsing for a few hours on top of that. I usually leave the RGB lighting on the highest brightness, so you could get even more life out of a single charge if you turn it down/off. I haven’t checked charge time from 0-100%, but it charges fast enough that it doesn’t matter to me personally.- The connection is solid. I’m about 10 feet from the dongle with my body, desk, and other equipment in between and have no noticeable input delay or dropped inputs.- The feel of the keys is amazing. I know this is more of a subjective matter, but I think they have just the right amount of “click” and feedback. They’re a little less “clicky” than the Cherry MX Red switches that were in my K70, but still tactile enough to feel just right.- If you’re also using a Corsair wireless mouse or headset, they can all pair with a single “Slipsteam” dongle so you’re not taking up multiple USB ports with different receivers. I imagine this also cuts down on the interference that would be caused my having multiple wireless receivers next to each other?- Multiple connection modes – wireless, wired (while charging), and bluetooth with up to 3 pairings. Switching between connection modes is as easy as pressing FN+[corrosponding key].- Premium quality in every category that I can think of.Cons:- If you don’t already have/use it, you’ll need the Corsair iCue software to control many functions of the keyboard. I don’t like having so many different pieces of software to control my system, but it’s practically unavoidable. Luckily, iCue isn’t one of those “in your face” pieces of software. It runs at startup without any popup or loading screen, and simply sits in your system tray until you need it.- Expensive, but you honestly get what you pay for.- That’s it. I have no actual complaints, I love this thing.

Primeira impressão muito boa, porem uma pena não funcionar no ps5⦠alguem sabe se tem como fazer algo pra dar certo de funcionar no ps5?

Jamas crei invertir tanto tiempo en un teclado por lo bueno que es. Los materiales son muy buenos y el tiempo de respuesta es excelente. Sumado a su uso y decoracion con ICue literalmente es de los mejores teclados que he usado. Solo ten en cuenta que las teclas son hipersensibles, y te tomara un poco de tiempo adaptarte a escribir bien sin equivocarte o meter letras incorrectas, ademas de que el polvo se nota bastante al acumularse, pero de ahi en mas, todo esta perfecto. 10/10.
