This kb lights the top half of every key directly, while the shifted characters are also transparent so they are lit indirectly. Most keyboards take the cheap way out, and paint the shifted-key symbols on without light pass though - so you can't see the shift options at night. Because Cherry keys each have their own LED near the top of each key mechanism, the top half of each key is more brightly lit than the bottom half. The non-shifted key options are also backlit, though less brightly. Too many Cherry MX Red kbs are targeted at young gamers who like spaceaged fonts that suck for typing.5.
BEST BUY CORSAIR STRAFE PROFESSIONAL
Nice clear professional font is large and easy to read. The downside is it takes a second USB connection to use, so it is effectively useless.4. In either case, try Nature-White or Black before installing O rings to Red, since it make the keys even easier to press down to the bottom.3.
BEST BUY CORSAIR STRAFE INSTALL
To make choices even more complicated, rubber O ring kits only cost a few bucks and are easy to install for those who want to quiet the board a little, or to slightly reduce the length of the stoke. All tactile key options are louder than Red, including Brown, which is a similarly soft 45g version of tactile key variants. The only sound comes from bouncing off the back-plate. Red keys are on the quiet side of the mechanical spectrum, because there is no notch and no audible click. Nature White keys availability remains limited. To me, black is too heavy, so I live with a little higher typo rate. If you like a smooth, non-tactile feel (= no stroke bump/notch and no audible click at the beginning of each keystroke) Cherry MX Black keys are 60g non-tactile linear keys, and the just released "Nature White" keys have a 55g non-tactile stroke. You'll get more accurate over time as a result. The disadvantage of the soft touch is a higher rate of typos. I love linear Cherry MX Red keys, but some find them too soft at only 45g actuation. This kb has that silky smooth, very solid Cherry MX Red feel. This paragraph applies to any Cherry MX kb. The space bar does sound and feel cheap.2. The long keys-return, shift, etc.-have good feel and sound to them, other manufacturers use cheaper supplemental key guides, giving the long keys a cheap feel. I would guess there is a metal plate inside. Although plastic, the kb has a sturdy feel. There are three similar lit indicator bars (num-lock and scroll-lock) so there is no way to know which of the three are lit up.Pros:1. Caps Lock key is always lit, the on/off indicator is an LED bar on the upper right. Plastic kb casing face comes close to the outer key boundary, so pulling the outer key caps is interfered with by the casing.5. The spacebar is the only key thats textured, oddly.4. Space bar has wear through the black paint after a few months of use (see photo). Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2017Ĭons:1. Great Cherry MX Red keys, not so great on everything else
