Reviews around rgb (4.24 of 5)

  • CORSAIR K70 LUX RGB Mechanical Gaming KeyboardSmooth and satisfying.
  • good switches, horrible RGB
  • The colors are just colors, if you don't like red, get the rgb, I'm sure it will fit your specifications to it's core
  • It has the satisfying mechanical keyboard click as well as an excellent RGB back lit functions.
  • The stored memory only allows for static RGB (no animations or actions), and Corsair has said that they have zero interest in creating MacOS software/drivers for the K70

Reviews around product (4.13 of 5)

  • Hoping i dont have 15+ failures in a month or so at this rate.typing wise: excellent product
  • No other product of any kind has ever given me as much grief and wasted as much time as this keyboard
  • So far I've had my Q, E D, & A keys break and had to replace them
  • PROs:Fantastic looking product that not only looks premium but feels like high quality build all around
  • I love Corsair products, but despite having "Quiet" as part of the product title, this keyboard is obnoxiously loud (even if you try to type softly)

Reviews around feature (4.05 of 5)

  • I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the K70 LUX to anyone looking for a good gaming keyboard with some nice backlit features and media keys.
  • The keyboard does have nice features that I appreciate - many of them in fact
  • Well, it has large keys, and many features that would make it great for a gamer
  • I actually blame this on gigabyte as it's more likely they made me a bad mobo
  • So in conclusion, this has many great features that made me give it a good score, but the noisy keys is a big distraction/let down.

Reviews around light (4.00 of 5)

  • The software allows you to save static lighting to the device, so I also saved a blue static lighting profile to it
  • The keyboard has nice lighting and the Corsair Utility Engine is rather easy to use once working properly
  • Looking at the key, it appears the plastic "T" is either fractured or broken off
  • Great RGB lighting, fast response times, tactical feel, comfortable to use
  • Very good keyboard, feels nice especially if you have the red switches and the lighting is superb

Reviews around color (3.95 of 5)

  • I am really enjoying the great colors of this key board and all the keys work really well
  • Then the lights started to go out and everything became the wrong color
  • The led colors are super impressive, but that sort of thing is a little much for me
  • The colors and effects also make typing fun and fun to show off to friends and people in my dorm hall.
  • I decided to go with the Corsair for the aluminum body, the more vibrant colors and it appears to be easier to clean than the Razer offerings,

Reviews around quality (3.82 of 5)

  • This should not be a problem with a 160.00 dollar keyboard, corsair needs to be held responsible for their low quality chosen materials and poor quality control
  • The build quality is good and all the materials are excellent quality
  • This keyboard is just amazing, everything about it is perfect, the build quality, the RGB, it's all great.
  • The build quality of this keyboard is amazing and the materials used seem to be premium.
  • I honestly would have liked to spend at most $100 to get a keyboard like this, but after researching and researching I was hard press to find anything comparable that had all the same features without losing any quality

Reviews around gaming (3.82 of 5)

  • This is a great gaming keyboard, and isn't too bad to type on either
  • Perfect keyboard for casual use in the office, or competitive gaming
  • The gaming 'FPS' and 'MOBA' cluster that come with the board don't work too well for me though, specifically because the keycaps are slanted inwards towards a point (the WASD cluster coming to a bowl shape around the gap between W and S)
  • Regarding the keys, they feel perfect to me for typing as well as gaming.
  • I actually blame this on gigabyte as it's more likely they made me a bad mobo

Reviews around switch (3.80 of 5)

  • Looking at the key, it appears the plastic "T" is either fractured or broken off
  • There are several shady fixes for the issue that is being dubbed "key chatter" (pretty sure it is really just loose switches), but I'd prefer to not look to a third party unless the issue gets much worse than it has, as unbearable as it already is
  • I've only owned one mechanical keyboard before this which had cherry MX browns, and I have to say I do prefer brown switches over the red that were the only available option on the blue led variant of the keyboard
  • I got Cherry MX Red switches, but it's available in Blue, Brown, Speed, and Silent switches
  • the red switches so bad to use it writing heavily but for gaming fantastic with high speed response and more

Reviews around feedback (3.68 of 5)

  • The tactile feedback is great from the switches and the light zones are nice for gaming
  • I was unsure of using MX Cherry Red keys on it, but have fallen in love with the lack of pressure required to type on this keyboard, as well as the nice clacky feedback
  • So far I've had my Q, E D, & A keys break and had to replace them
  • like is the feedback is all audible, no touch response until the key is bottomed out
  • Although not as loud as MX Cherry Blues, it still gives a great auditory feedback for reach key that is pressed

Reviews around board (3.61 of 5)

  • I could definitely use this keyboard for years, and I think it's a durable enough board that it'll easily last that long
  • So far I've had my Q, E D, & A keys break and had to replace them
  • The ease to register a key press does mean that you have to be careful while typing, as it's easier to make typos, but with some practice you can easily type quickly.-the key replacements for FPS (WASD) and MOBA (I don't remember because I don't play MOBAs) are a nice touch
  • Loved the keyboard simple easy assembly, not your quietest board but fantastic
  • The RGB functions are great but even without that the board is just gorgeous
