The Corsair K70 RGB MK.2 may not possess a litany of substantial upgrades on the previous generation, but it does offer small improvements on Corsair's steadfast and functional design.

The Corsair K70 RGB is a very well-made keyboard with an impressive array of customizable features and dazzling backlighting options.

Corsair's new K70 is the first to feature Cherry's new Low Profile MX switch, recreating a laptop feel on a desktop keyboard. It won't be to everyone's tastes, but it's pretty damn nice regardless.
Low Profile Cherry MX switch mimics standard desktop switches surprisingly well ; Same durable K70 build quality ; Flatter laptop-style layout makes for speedy typing
Feels less ergonomic than a traditional desktop keyboard ; Low Profile MX Red makes more drastic changes than the MX Silver we tested ; Wrist rest feels cheap after Razer and Logitech's recent models
If you’ve been looking to recreate a laptop typing experience on a desktop, the K70 Low Profile is certainly a better choice than the bevy of rubber dome and scissor switch keyboards you’d have to choose from a few years back. I’m not sure whether Low...

Not that long ago, Corsair decided to give some of their older keyboards a second lease on life, which is what has us here today. With these products, they keep a similar size, overall design, and shape, yet have been gone over again to improve upon...
Many keyboards, including earlier versions of Corsair keyboards have asked this much or more, but it is rare that you get this much bang for the buck. If you would like the low-profile version, the price is similar, but expect to pay up to ten dollars...

The Corsair K70 RGB MK.2 Low Profile RAPIDFIRE keyboard is the latest mechanical gaming keyboard from a company that's been at the forefront of the field for years. This isn't just the usual gaming keyboard, though – it's got a different key design and...
Fast, comfortable, effective key design Good RGB LED lighting Loads of features Solid build quality
Doesn’t have full-height keys Only uses USB 2 Weak wrist-rest
Our Corsair K70 RGB MK.2 Low Profile RAPIDFIRE review illustrates that this keyboard is deeply impressive – and that it doesn’t lose out on much because its keys are shorter than conventional buttons.

Mechanical keyboards have fallen back into fashion after years on the sidelines. But in an age where a lot of people use laptop keyboards during the day and their PC at night, many would-be mechanical converts find themselves frustrated with the bulky...
Corsair’s K70 Low Profile is a unique board with good software and a solid feature set, and is an interesting alternative to the standard Cherry MX version. Oddly it feels a bit cheaper than its sibling, and I prefer the taller and clackier MX...

Corsair's K70 RGB MK.2 and Strafe RGB MK.2 are two of the best built gaming keyboards on the market right now, worthy of any serious gamer's arsenal.
Expert review by : Marshall Honorof (tomsguide.com)
Aside from its high price and initially tricky software, Corsair's latest keyboard is nearly without flaw. I have high hopes for the company's upcoming line of wireless gear, and I'm sure the company will think of more wired improvements as time goes...
Gorgeous design ; Key switch selection ; High-quality components ; Helpful extra features
Expensive
Beautiful, functional and innovative, the Corsair K70 RGB Mk.2 is a gaming keyboard that has something for everyone.

This keyboard is low-profile but packs a punch. Should it be on your desk?
Fast, reliable, snappy typing ; Smart, slick physical design ; Plenty of extra features ; Reliable build quality
Slightly different feel to full-height keys ; Flimsy wrist-rest ; Uses slow USB 2
The latest Corsair keyboard has fast, comfortable keys and plenty of features – but it isn't the only option for rapid-fire gaming

The Corsair K70 RGB MK.2 low profile is much leaner than its predecessor, so does it pack the same heavy-weight punch?
