  • Well with testing out of the way and having taken a look at the new K95 RGB Platinum XT. Beyond knowing the name is too long after typing it so many times, I have learned a few things about Corsairs' latest flagship keyboard. For starters, most of it...

  • The K95 Platinum XT, as might be gleaned from its name, is a refinement of the famous K95 Platinum, rather than a wholesale revolution. Indeed it is the type of product where those of you who already own a K95 Platinum won't be left rueing your purchase...

  • Authentic Cherry MX switches, Gorgeous RGB lighting, Elgato streaming functionality, Comfortable wrist rest
  • Complicated software
  • The K95 XT is an expensive keyboard — but it's no more expensive than its predecessor, and a bit better in some measurable ways. The wrist rest is a big step up, the keycaps are smoother, and the Elgato shortcuts could simplify things considerably for str...

  • If you don't mind the price, you'll be more than happy with the K95 RGB PLATINUM XT. The market for mechanical keyboards is becoming more crowded, but this Corsair product has some features that might make you want to choose it over the competition. That...

  • PBT double-shot keycaps, G-keys now work in Elgato Stream Deck software, Comfortable wrist rest, Aluminum construction, Cherry MX mechanical key switches, iCUE software works great
  • No real reason to upgrade to this keyboard if you already have the K95 RGB Platinum
  • I've been using the K95 RGB Platinum XT for the past couple of weeks and at first I had to get used to using a full-size keyboard again. I've been hooked on tenkeyless keyboards so moving back to a full-size keyboard was a little weird, but if there was a...

  • The Corsair K95 RGB Platinum XT promises to be an improvement over the popular non-XT version with an updated wrist rest, PBT keycaps, and really everything you would ever want in a keyboard. Does it try to be something it is not like our argumentative fr...

  • Small changes, as I said, and many of them strictly geared towards enthusiasts. A comfier wrist rest is worth getting excited about, but PBT keycaps? “More durable” Cherry MX switches? Streaming software tie-ins? Most of these are geared towards very nich...

  • Abstract:  Roughly three years ago, we took a look at what we thought may have been the pinnacle for Corsair when it comes to mechanical keyboards, but with what we have in hand now, we were wrong. Just when you thought you could not pack in any more RGB illuminatio...

  • Abstract:  If anyone ever invents a time machine, it would be fun to take an RGB keyboard from the late 2010s back to the year 1977 just to show the stunned onlookers what the human race has accomplished. No, we didn't get personal jetpacks, and a keyboard isn't qui...
