The editors didn't like
100% brightness needs more intensity
Matt keys do tarnish with sweat
Expensive
Neautral
Basic lighting effects are easy to do
But expect to spend hours creating the more advanced stuff
CUE Software unintuitive
Cherry MX RGB lighting dull and cannot display white effectively
No USB or Audio passthrough
Difficult software suite
TKL design does limit dedicated macro controls
Programming the lighting is laborious
Features removed compared to previous K70
A bit too expensive despite how good it is
Some keys are a little too close for touchtyping
No additional macro keys
Unintuitive software
That pricepoint
Price may put some people off
Expensive!
New logo is generic and worse than the original
Back end software is a little intimidating
Could use some dedicated macro keys (available on K95).
