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).

PriceThere aren't many places to pre-order this keyboard at the moment, but I suspect this will change quickly now that the product has officially launched. Currently you can pre-order it from Newegg for $169.99, but expect prices in the UK to be around £...
Starting with the build quality of the K70 RGB we have a keyboard which for the most part looks great and feels even better. The aluminium frame is top notch and adds a real feel of rigidity to the board while the key type are tried and trusted Cherry MX...
Since the Corsair K70 RGB Mk.2 is still the finest gaming keyboard on the market, it should come as no surprise that the Corsair K70 RGB TKL Champion Series is about as good as TKL gaming keyboards get. I miss the numpad, personally (and the wrist rest)...

I was exceptionally pleased with the Corsair K70 RGB TKL throughout testing. The dedicated media and function keys were all well placed, the volume roller is always a welcome addition that worked smoothly, and the overall build makes for a readily portabl...

The mechanical keyboards market is packed and full of diverse products, Corsair clearly wants to create something new. Granted, the TKL format is nothing new (also for Corsair), but here, you get a tenkeyless-form-factor keyboard with pleasant Cherry MX R...
Excellent Build Quality, Cherry MX Red Mechanical Switches (50 Million Actuations), Full RGB Key Illumination (Custom Effects/Individual Key Color), USB 2.0 Pass Through, 8MB Built In Memory, Detachable Wrist Rest, Up To 104 Macro Keys, Corsair iCUE
No Dedicated Macro Keys, Price (For Some), No BIOS/Polling Rate Switch,
It's been over 2 years already since we reviewed the K70 RGB mechanical gaming keyboard by CORSAIR so we were quite interested in seeing what the new MK.2 model brought to the table. Honestly since the original K70 RGB was already a very good me...

the keyboard is built to last from high quality materials, K70 LUX RGB is available in a lot of variants (MX Silent, MX Red, MX Blue, MX Brown) in order to fit all preferences, we've got a free set of FPS/MOBA replaceable keycaps along with a key puller,
We have tested the CORSAIR K70 LUX RGB keyboard with games such as The Crew, Wolfenstein: The New Order, MU Legend but also Quake Champions; since the MX Silent switch does have the same actuation force as the CHERRY MX Red, they did feel very responsive

CUE Software unintuitive, Cherry MX RGB lighting dull and cannot display white effectively, No USB or Audio passthrough
The Corsair Gaming K70 RGB with Cherry MX RGB Red switches is a well-engineered and solid product that ticks all the right boxes for a customizable gaming keyboard, being let down only by the hard-to-use software and somewhat dim lighting. $169.99...

I always try to use every keyboard that we review as my personal keyboard for at least a week. My typical weekly usage includes a lot of typing (about 100-150 pages), a few hours of gaming and some casual usage, such as internet browsing and messaging. As...
