Corsair K60 PRO TKL keyboard review

The Corsair K60 RGB Pro keyboard is the one we’re reviewing today. It’s not the first one from the K70 series checked on guru3d. Previously those were K70 RGB Rapidfire Mk2, also in a low-profile version, and as a TKL, so overall, there shouldn’t be any significant surprise as far as the general concept goes. Corsair K70 RGB Pro takes some K100 RGB and (most of) K70 RGB TKL CHAMPION (already mentioned) features. The suffix “Pro” wasn’t used yet, so probably it was the right time for that.

In 2014 at our local computer show I purchased a brand new ‘Corsair Vengeance K65 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard’ on sale for $35. It was build like a tank and literally out of a chunk of stainless steel and Corsair still managing to fitting in all the essentials. Love at first sight but yet the most I ever paid for a keyboard. Now in 2022 the K65 is still going strong with absolutely no fail. I am amazed that some people will now buy keyboards costing between $75-$200 plus thinking that those will significantly better their gaming or overall experience? Any decent keyboard I think should easily last for over 10-years of use? But based from what I see and Corsair pushing out new keyboards like bread out of the oven, buyers must be replacing their keyboards even though their present ones are still in perfect operating condition? But what do I know about profit margins, upselling and marketing, driving a forklift on the third-shift drinking lots Mountain Dew and eating my sandwich out of a metal lunchbox!

I have found that my hands don't get along with mechanical keyboards as they are simply too small to comfortably support my hands when typing. I don't have giant hands, but they are medium-largish, I guess. As if being too small for comfort wasn't enough, then they come along and chop off the Numpad--or offer it as a separate device. I like a largish, non-mechanical keyboard with Very Big Letters & a Numpad with big numbers, too. After years (decades) of using keyboards with tiny lettering even when backlit, causing squinting and strain, I am now using backlit large lettered keys, with complete satisfaction. For $31 it's quite a good deal! It's so cheap that when the time comes that I've worn away the letters so that they are no longer legible (keyboard is all black, has black keys with white backlit letters, numbers & symbols), I'll just order another one. Ah, simplicity... How I love it in my rapidly approaching dotage!...

$150 for this hot mess, not a chance. There's much better options out there people.

Is iCUE still a horribly bloated mess?
