CORSAIR K65 PLUS WIRELESS 75% RGB Hot-Swappable Mechanical Gaming Keyboard – Pre-Lubricated CORSAIR MLX Red Linear Switches – Top Mounted – Dual-Layer Sound Dampening – PBT Keycaps – QWERTY UK – Black

I thought I would treat myself to a new keyboard having been using the same one for the past 10+ years, I opted for the Corsair K65 Plus Wireless 75% keyboard, and I have to say, it has exceeded my expectations!First off, the design is sleek and compact, which is perfect for my desk setup. I love that it’s 75% layout; it saves space without sacrificing functionality. The build quality feels solid, and the keycaps have a nice texture that’s comfortable to type on.The wireless feature is a game-changer! I was a bit worried about latency, but I’ve had zero issues—no lag at all. I can move my keyboard around freely, and it still feels responsive. Plus, the battery life is impressive; I can go days without needing to charge it, even with the RGB lighting on.Speaking of RGB, the lighting effects are stunning! There are so many customization options through the Corsair iCUE software. I love being able to sync the colours with my other Corsair devices, and the effects really bring my gaming setup to life.Whether I’m typing up a report or getting into a heated gaming session, this keyboard performs wonderfully. The Cherry MX switches (I went with red) feel great—smooth and clicky with just the right amount of resistance. My typing speed has actually improved since switching to this keyboard!I can’t recommend the Corsair K65 Plus enough. It’s stylish, functional, and just feels great to use. If you’re looking for a compact wireless keyboard that doesn’t compromise on performance, this is definitely the one to go for!

There are so many good points and so few bad that I'll start with the bad:-I bought this at £109.99. The current price of £164.94 is funny. It would not feel good at all to pay an extra £55 for this board! Especially since,-The keycaps are not translucent. A new set costs around £20 on amazon.(I swapped 98% of the keys with my old razer blackwidow 2014, the difference is insane especially with the softwares ability to use the lights on your keyboard react to music. The lights are brilliant and can be turned down, but they look great.)-Battery life advertised is for bluetooth wireless. Its alright and you can still have fun in games, but it might cost you. Bluetooth is about 125hz polling rate (button response time to pc). the 2.4ghz dongle is what makes it a gaming keyboard but the battery life will go right down from a full charge after about 2 days with lights and 3 days without.-The comma button has stopped working unless I am running iCue software on the pc. I've tried resetting and other fixes but its an issue. I don't care about running iCue so it's not a problem for me to bother returning it.+Feel of board is strong (plastic but I like it as it's lighter for using wirelessly on thighs).+Typing good+Lights good+Very good layoutIts the best 75% keyboard just overpriced and let down by no translucent keycaps, minor bugs. The battery life remains neutral I think it's great just would prefer not to charge so often.

Bought this keyboard after using a larger cheaper which was too big.Firstly Pro's -Keys are very satisfying and typing is quick for myself. Took a little getting used to however I enjoy the feel.Key board is obviously high quality, plenty of weigh, good ergonomics. Even things like the charging cable is good.ICUE (Corsair Software) is great. Change colour, shortcuts... Everything you want it has.Cons - This is likely me being picky.The lights in the keyboard aren't too bright - My other keyboard which was cheaper had very bright lights.(Now granted this is a wireless keyboard so maybe that is the reason for dimmer lights but would be cool to have an option to brighter lights)If im being extremely picky then maybe the battery life could be a bit better (Lights go off once key board is low on battery, meaning 50% of the time I dont have the lighting).However in summary - I paid £114 for this keyboard. Is it worth it?If you want a smaller wireless keyboard which is obviously made well with good customisability then this is a great keyboard.All in all good job Corsair, happy customer.

A really sturdy 75% sized keyboard. Easy to install, plugged in the 2.4ghz dongle and connected straight away with no interference or lag so far. The keycaps are sturdy and have a nice muted sound, but a little disappointed that there is no RGB shine through on the key caps with the linear model (see update at the end of review). The linear switches are smooth with no tactile bump or click, which makes typing near silent. Not swapped any of the switches out yet, but the board is fully hot swappable should you want different key switches.. The keyboard uses icue to configure , but beware. When in wireless mode RGB lighting profiles are predefined and cannot be be customised. Per key RGB lighting is possible when in wired mode, just not saved to the keyboard. Switching back into wireless mode reverts the lighting back to one of the presets.Overall a great little wireless keyboard from Corsair with a few minor QoL issues. So far so goodUpdate: buying any sort of RGB shine through or pudding caps which support full UK iso layout for this keyboard is a pain, which is a shame. This does limit the customisable nature of the keyboard.
