| Pros , different | Tom's Hardware found the pre-lubed Corsair Reds the smoothest stock switches in a mainstream gaming board Two layers of EVA foam give a damped sound with no case ping (Tom's Hardware, PC Gamer) Aluminum top plate and a solid chassis, with only slight flex under hard pressure (Trusted Reviews) Metal dial for volume, brightness, scrolling and zoom, though Tom's Hardware says it is limited to five presets rather than fully customizable Per-key RGB with shine-through double-shot ABS keycaps and five onboard profiles (Tom's Hardware) Magnetic wrist rest in the box (Tom's Hardware, PC Gamer) | Tri-mode with Bluetooth 5.0, 2.4 GHz and wired USB-C (Akko) Hot-swap sockets across the board (Akko, SmartZone) PBT dye-sub keycaps (Akko) SmartZone found the lubed Creamy Yellow switches smooth and not too loud Software installs quickly and detects the layout (SmartZone) 1,000 Hz polling over wired and 2.4 GHz (Akko) |
| Cons , different | Integrated, non-detachable cable and no USB hub (Trusted Reviews, Tom's Hardware) Trusted Reviews called the keys not a great typing experience for tactile fans PC Gamer found the dial's click out of character and the wrist rest texture rough No dedicated media keys beyond the iCUE button (PC Gamer) Switches are fixed, with PC Gamer reporting no hot-swap Wired only, and tied to iCUE for macros and lighting | 3,000 mAh battery is small; SmartZone estimated 40 to 60 hours Bluetooth polls at 125 Hz, so SmartZone suggests it for office use only Backlight lights the gaps between keys rather than each key (SmartZone) Heavy at about 1.2 kg and less portable (SmartZone) Plastic ABS frame (Akko, SmartZone) Only one review of this model was found, so evidence is thin |
| Research take , different | A quiet, solid full-size board that reviewers admire for switch smoothness and sound damping. Choose it for that feel and the dial; skip it if you want a detachable cable, tactile switches or hot-swap. | A flexible full-size wireless board with hot-swap and decent software, but evidence is thin and battery is modest. Confirm the edition and switch before buying. |
