Corsair K65 Lux RGB Gaming Keyboard Tenkeyless with Cherry MX Red switches and RGB lighting (English US)

It features Cherry MX Red switches that require less activation force than black ones, allowing them to return to their position more quickly, making them more comfortable during long use. It has relatively low noise and is ideal for gaming, especially in games where one needs to press the same key many times in a short period. It is tenkeyless, meaning it does not have numeric keys on its right side. See full description

    My job requires me to write for many hours a day. I type quite fast. The keyboard is satisfactory for professionals, but it doesn't compromise typing ability. What I mean is that when you type fast, it's easy to accidentally press the adjacent key, unless you're used to it and have become a star at touch typing. Once you get used to it, it's difficult for wrong letters to slip by. I switched to the K65 after being accustomed to typing on the best - in my opinion - keyboard in the world: the iMac keyboard (mid 2010). After a month, I got used to the Corsair and now I type just as fast without making mistakes. Long story short, for professionals: Buy it, unless you're an accountant (because it DOES NOT have a numpad). I can't comment on it for gamers because I don't play games. I imagine the criteria for gamers is for the keyboard to be made of granite (!) so it doesn't break when they hit it out of frustration. The construction, however, is very sturdy, metallic, with compact keys, and the keyboard can be easily cleaned with an air blower, as there is enough space underneath the keys where dust accumulates. The LED lights are satisfactorily bright and you can customize them however you want. I have set mine to green, and when I press a key, it lights up red (I did this so I know what I pressed while typing). Most likely, gamers will like the LED lights, as well as those from the '80s, because it has some strange settings that resemble a disco ball (I wonder who uses them without going crazy). During the day, the noise is not bothersome (I'm a peculiar person and I like hearing the 'click', it gives me a thrill, it excites me, bro!), but if you type at night, your wife will probably throw a slipper (or an iron. And when it's turned on. Along with the ironing board.) at you. Overall, the keyboard is good and gives off what we call a life-long warranty, meaning it will function for a lifetime (so if you buy it and plan on committing suicide, it's good to include it in your will). That's it. If you liked the video, give it a like, subscribe, and... ... ...wait, what am I saying? I'm writing a text, not vlogging... Oh, this new generation...

    It eliminated all my guilt about the high cost as soon as I opened the box. It gives the feeling that it is a very durable product. The switches it uses are Cherry MX Red, making typing very easy and fast with little resistance. It is quieter than mechanical keyboards with tactile feedback. It does not have Greek characters, which personally did not affect me at all.

    The box also includes a keycap puller for easy removal of the keys, as well as alternative "WASD" and "WERQFD" keys with a different shape and texture for gaming.

    Its software, the Corsair Utility Engine, being the second version, is very easy and flexible to use, unlike some previous reviews that concerned the first version. All profiles work flawlessly and I have not had any problems so far. The main peculiarity of CUE 2, which may confuse some people, has to do with the profiles that are divided into Beginner and Advanced. These two categories cannot run simultaneously on the keyboard, so you have to decide in which of the two you will build all your profiles and stay there. I would recommend going straight to Advanced and creating the effects you want on your own.

    Having tried some Razer products in my market research (Blackwidow, Ornata, Tartarus), Corsair made a better impression on me for this price range. Just for your information, I bought it for 130 euros on sale.

    I come from Corsair Strafe RGB and I can say that I like it a lot more. Let's start with the good things first, PREMIUM construction, intentionally the caps, no cheap construction, metallic construction, elegant and beautiful. It takes up 2 USB ports in the box but it gives you one in the back of the keyboard, the LED lights are beautiful with many functions, anyone who gets bored of them can go to the Corsair forum and download new effects. And now the best part of all, ten key less, more space for the mouse and more comfortable gaming. Also, the wrist rest is different from the Strafe, I would say more "premium". I have the version with cherry mx red, no negatives so far, anyone who has the money and wants a ten key less keyboard should get it without a second thought.

    Very beautiful! It is exactly as I expected. I bought it to be smaller since the right side with the numbers has always been unnecessary for me, so the mouse is closer and has a very nice minimalist appearance. It is exactly as it claims, the cherry switches have a perfect feel for gaming and enhance it a lot. As for the noise? Yes, it does make noise, but anyone who chooses cherry switches knows that, they know why if they bothered to read at least one review. The fact that it is beautiful is not the only reason for someone to buy it
