honestly one of my favorite multi use keboards, when it comes to super competitive gaming ill definitely use my mech but if im working or playing semi intense games ill pull this out from under my desk and use it, such a good membrane keyboard completely worth the money
This is the best REVIEW of a keyboard I’ve ever seen. I’ve noticed a lot of people in other reviews don’t even type with it!!! lol Why review a keyboard and not mention or show how it types?! 😂 Makes no sense. So many reviews on Amazon are just about the lights. Most people get keyboards for its functionality, not the lights, but people are only posting videos of the lights 🤦🏽♀️ dummies lol So here I am. Thank you for the review. I just ordered this one Amazon(it’s on sale for $49 USD instead of $60)
Love the idea of the macro record function! It's kind of a hassle to load up the software and then save it to a hardware profile at times, I think I'm gonna be more willing to experiment with it this way.
iCue pronounced how it’s spelled, Eye-Cue(iCue). It’s the program that you can use to change the lighting. I have a Corsair headphone stand and it came with iCue as well. That’s what they use so you can change the RGB(can even use it to change other device lights too!). I’m sure later in the video you go over this but incase someone jumps to the comments and is curious, that’s what it is. I like quiet keyboards. I had a Logi MX keyboard but it’s not for gaming and the WASD keys started to feel weird after 6 years of use. So I am looking for a gaming keyboard. I don’t like the loud clacking of mechanical keyboards so membrane seems to be right for me. There are more silent ones I’m sure(that are for gaming) but I like this because I already have iCue and it has good reviews on Amazon 😊
@@onedoompunchman7549 Hey! I use it for gaming I'm no pro gamer but I think its a great keyboard it the best keyboard Ive ever had. I was using a chiclet style keyboard for years before so keep that in mind. Ive never had a mechanical keyboard. So I cant really say much about them but I do believe they are a lot more expensive. And for someone like me I would prolly have a hard time telling or noticing the difference between them. I hope it helps :D
@@QuietNerd ye i think that too. I had a trash keyboard and i already feel much better with this one (bc i already bought it on the black friday for the discount). Thx for the answer man :D
with the icue you can change the colors on it. So when you want rainbow you can do that. (its a program by Corsair) If you want to have it response to a key button you can do it. Its very easy to use.
Hi, I just got my corsair k55 pro today. It's really a great keyboard but why is it that when I use the iCue software the lighting (FN+1,2,..) don't work anymore... I have to do everything in the software and I don't want that. I had to uninstall iCue to be able to re-use the lighting effects with FN on my keyboard.
@@altijdmiljan9050 Yes it is a very good keyboard ! I have learned to use iCue and I'm playing with my RGB lol. The macro keys are in my case a mini elgato stream deck it is awesome ! You won't get a better membrane keyboard
I guess you found out that the iCue software isn't compatible with Win 11. Yet, anyway. I just purchased one of these units today and discovered it. "No device detected!". Great keyboard though.
lol i noticed today because my enter key got stuck and i couldnt figure out why so I removed the " ' button to test it out and when putting back in i noticed the shape was facing the wrong way....good thing i still have the box lol to confirm.
@@dlfdistana4461 K55 is membrane meaning it doesn't have loud keys and it's soft on touch (that is my preference). The other is mechanical, some people prefer the sound a mechanical keyboard makes while typing and also prefer the feel that it gives. I can't describe it probably though
It does I recently got this it took me forever I saw the ones saying to hold f1 and stuff well no what u have too do is hold sb and then plug it in ur ps4 or 5
am I the only one who doesnt like this keyboard?....I have small hands and it feels cramped ....I keep hitting the wrong keys. I thinking of replacing it its been since its been almost a year and i still hit the wrong keys. Also it feels like i miss my combos sometimes and that didnt happen on my cheaper gaming keyboard. Not sure if its the keyboard and just me not hitting the keys right.
I wanna buy this keyboard, its the 4th video im watching and it's the best. You are the best man, you just show all I needed to know.
I was looking for a Christmas present for myself, and i needed a quick review. This was fast and had no useless waffling.
Subbed :))
Glad I could help and happy holidays :D
@@QuietNerd merry christmas :))
@@Sarank1107 Thank you and you as well! :D

Really glad to hear it. Sold on this for an editing board and soft use too. Thanks
Very detailed review. I really like the way you reviewed it.
Thanks! I hope it helped

I was looking into this keyboard and this was a perfect video, great work!
Glad I could help!
Awesome video! I like that you went through all the details.
:D Thanks and have yourself a lovely day!
@@QuietNerd Merry Christmas to you and your friends and family mate!
@@Deinobi Thank you and you as well :D!
Great video. Thanks for running through the details. Thanks.
Your welcome :D. Keep on keeping on!
ICUE is a software you can download on your computer to remotely add lighting effects to corsair branded tech you have, its pretty cool.
Interesting Ill have to look tat up!
Awesome rainbow keyboard!!!
I think its pretty sweet :D Excited to have some new keys to work with lol
I’m getting it soon, I don’t like membrane but this one sounds kinda like a mechanical keyboard but it’s overall great for its price
Because it is a mechanical keyboard
@@loyalwestbriton5410 it is a membrane
@@loyalwestbriton5410 it’s actually not that’s what makes it cheap I wish it was tho ;-;
it's rubber dome.
Nice video bro 💙🔥👌👏
Thanks!

Getting this for Christmas :)

Awesome review 👍👍
Thanks :D Hope it helped Keep on keeping on!
Windows lock key locks out the windows key so you dont have windows jumping in front of your game when you accidently punch it
Nice trolldiering and review :D 👍
:D Thank you!
@@QuietNerd do you think for tf2 this keyboard is good? Also i think that meccanic keyboard are an overkill for the game. Are u of the same opinion?

@Lifeofgaming no
Windows lock key means usually that it disables the Windows key on the keyboard. I know this keyboard has it too :p
I wish more keyboard came with onboard memory. It really set cheap membrane vs premium keyboard apart with lil features like that.
Ok, I bought it lol apparently it does have onboard memory. Good Stuff.
How is it with you bro and what about responsive time@@IAMNOTRANA
thnx very nice video!
can you remap the media buttons at the top left? thank you!
Can it work on a MacOS monteray 12.3 or do i haveto have a usb? please reply
Hello, are the letters backlit or is it just the underside of the keyboard keys?
The fact a 50eur keyboard doesnt have individually lit keys but only 5 zones is insane to me, my 5eur Amazon keyboard has individually lit keys
What's the difference between this and the no pro version?
im currently waiting for it and im excited to try it. first keyboard I can change the lights to my delight
I’m so upset that mine didn’t come with the actual booklet it came with a scan code… cannot stand it
Good video
Thanks :D

hey there its been a month would you still recommend it?
@@altijdmiljan9050 Yes it is a very good keyboard ! I have learned to use iCue and I'm playing with my RGB lol. The macro keys are in my case a mini elgato stream deck it is awesome ! You won't get a better membrane keyboard
@@romkyy great thanks for letting me know 😁 ordered one on sale
@@romkyy I have same problem bro help me lol
@@aquadailys What is the problem?
ok so my lights are on, but my '1' light next to the m light isnt on. and the keyboard dosent seem to be working. how could i fix this?
Nice video, fyi Corsair owns elgato.
This or Apex 3? Which wrist rest is better?
Im planning to get this keyboard for my windows 11 pro computer hope it works when I get it and I do have a windows 10 laptop tho
i hope you enjoy it, great all around keyboard, one of the best membrane keyboards i have personally ever used
I guess you found out that the iCue software isn't compatible with Win 11. Yet, anyway. I just purchased one of these units today and discovered it. "No device detected!". Great keyboard though.
@@ReneeNme im on windows 10 and staying that way for a while, updated, hated it, reverted back. kind of god awful counterintuitive software.
nice keyboard
Do you know if this is compatible with PS4 ?
I'm not sure sorry I don't have a ps4 to test it on
the letters also have rgb ??
Hey, can you completly turn off rgb on this keyboard?
At 13:40 he explains how to do this. Hope this helped.
i use it on my PS5 ✌️
it works on ps5???
Of course, if it worked on PS5, I use it all the time
Hey btw what kind of switches does it have?
Im not 100% sure but I believe it is a membrane keyboard if that means anything to you. I hope it helped!
It's a membrane keyboard bro.
@@QuietNerd what's a membrne?
@@Manual113 ruclips.net/video/2FWXQ3hKLvk/видео.html
has anyone noticed that the upper symbols are written below on the key caps??? that's dumb and very confusing I think.
lol i noticed today because my enter key got stuck and i couldnt figure out why so I removed the " ' button to test it out and when putting back in i noticed the shape was facing the wrong way....good thing i still have the box lol to confirm.
Very strange indeed.
my only complaint is i think the keys are a bit to high in my opinion.
Windows lock allows you to click the Windows button and nothing will happen. Its for the gamers that click windows during gameplay
what's most comfortable corsair k55 or hyperx alloy core?
Depends on you. This one is membrane and the other is mechanical I think
@@lSandmanl what’s the difference
@@dlfdistana4461 K55 is membrane meaning it doesn't have loud keys and it's soft on touch (that is my preference). The other is mechanical, some people prefer the sound a mechanical keyboard makes while typing and also prefer the feel that it gives. I can't describe it probably though
can we remove its keycaps
is it mechanical, hybrid or membrane?
membrane
8:15
Fn shi* uh 6
Yeah nvm
He took speed before making this
Why this keyboard doesnt work at ps4?
It does I recently got this it took me forever I saw the ones saying to hold f1 and stuff well no what u have too do is hold sb and then plug it in ur ps4 or 5
Lock picking lawyer but for tech?
I lost the I key from that board. Can I have yours? Just the key. Not the board. Thanks
am I the only one who doesnt like this keyboard?....I have small hands and it feels cramped ....I keep hitting the wrong keys. I thinking of replacing it its been since its been almost a year and i still hit the wrong keys. Also it feels like i miss my combos sometimes and that didnt happen on my cheaper gaming keyboard.

Just found one on clearance at target for $14.99. Steal.

Uuughheghhhgh first
