More of a subdued look. You can always swap out WASD and other bound keys to clear so you can find them at a glance or even peripherally. I like that aspect
I didn't get it initially. Emailed Corsair support and they rectified it quickly. I'm by no means a Corsair fanboy, in fact I initially purchased the Razer Blackwidow V4 75%. Within a month it (the razer) had horrible double, triple and quadruple input issues. Razer support were worse than worthless. Grabbed this keyboard. Swapped the keycaps for double shot PBT shine throughs (I personally cannot have a keyboard without shine through), snagged the holy panda x and swapped them in. Loving it so far. One of my holy pandas has a double input problem, but otherwise flawless.
Very high quality video, something you would expect from a RUclipsr with more subscribers! RUclips! Get this man more subscribers and views and likes!!!
Just an FYI on the wireless; laptop users will ABSOLUTELY want everything wireless that they can get/afford. If you are sitting, say on the floor, or maybe outside, and you move 'wrong' you are GOING to yank a cable. Many many times when I had a wireless headset, and I'd set my laptop off to the side of my lap, gotten up to go to the bathroom or wherever, I'd yank the cable on the headphones due to it getting caught on my pants, foot, leg, whatever. It's extremely dangerous, as that will at a minimum in terms of damage possibly break the port it's connected to, and in a worse case scenario, say a student with it on their desk, could yank it right off. Another horrible example is, about 3 months after I'd gotten my brand new TUF F15 I had it set in front of me while I sat cross legged behind it. I had my external keyboard in my lap. I set the keyboard to the side, so I could lean over into my pack to get something, and the cable yanked, which somehow transferred the momentum to the laptop, as well as pulling the keyboard around, and it basically spun the corner of the very heavy and sharp keyboard into it, scratching the screen in 3 places. So, sure, it doesn't matter much for desktop use, but laptop users will absolutely want wireless for everything to reduce the risk. (And I'll always point it out to people who aren't aware of just how risky any wire can be.)
lol, corsair has no idea about gasket mount keyboards. How to hit the competition when is so high? With that product? Come on, this is not even a gasket mount. Also the wirless is a big joke, only 3 days last. Other that that, the review is great and strait to the point!
wtf are u speaking about? did u see the keyboards from logitech for example =)? or hyperx? the logitech g715 costs even more then this.. and compare that two keyboards =)
You can use it wired (which I would suggest) also it’s super cheaper compared to the competition while still being well loved to those who have bought it. If nothing else, it will do great for lowering the price in the future for hot swapable keyboards, but I think it seems like a great experience on it’s own. (It’s Razer counterpart has been found to have problems where the keys will double input, so you get AA instead of a single A for a single A input, which causes massive trouble if you don’t realize it’s coming.)
The misaligned print on the keys are pathetic for the cost and brand.
Hopefully the sound and feel continue though
if you are going to add LED'S why not make the light pass through? might as well..

Why aren’t the key caps backlit?? So disappointing
How do you get the 50% off coupon for Drop Holy Panda X switches? Like, do you receive it after you purchase this keyboard from Corsair's site, or...?
Oh, never mind. I actually see the verbiage on the K65 Plus page.

Baby Ks definitely add some clack! Similar but a little heavier feel and deeper sound you should try some WS Heavy Tactiles.
