Product Showcase
Much like all Corsair keyboards, there's a button for the keyboards back-lit keys, which can be adjusted in three brightness modes and off as well as a windows protection key (so you do not exit a game if you by accident press the key with the windows logo). Sitting next to it to the left are multimedia and to the right volume control is found.
Basically, you can cycle the LED brightness from off as towards three higher stages of brightness. Obviously, that can be configured with the CUE software as well. The wrist rest is detachable, should you not want to use it. Overall, this is your standard Corsair layout and design, and Corsair certainly has plenty of them these days.
Once powered on (switch on the backside), you'll be welcomed with blue lit (static, no animation) on the keys. We'll talk a bit more about the animation and functionality with the Corsair CUE software overview later in this article. As you can see K63 lacks numeric or for that matter any extra programmable G keys in the form of left side gaming keys. Most keys, however, are programmable with the Corsair CUE software, but here again, we'll address that later on in the article.
The backside, plain and simple. We mentioned the rubber feet already. You can use standoffs as well to allow a little more height and create an angled position. It has a very firm grip on my desktop.
Though the product is wireless, you might want to charge it every now and then, you can connect the USB cable. Also if your battery is dead, with this USB cable you can use the keyboard. It's merely a plain rubber with one USB connector (2.0). The cable is roughly two meters in length, which offers plenty of reaches. Next to that the Bluetooth dongle, and a USB converter (mini/regular), should you need it.
