Lots of keyboards seem to get bigger and bigger with more and more features packed in, but Corsair is here with something different. The K100 Air is an extremely thin keyboard with ultra-low profile switches to emulate the feeling of typing on a laptop. Will Plouffe be impressed or should you stick to your Apple Magic Keyboard?

Correction: At 0:26 the measurements are meant to read 439 x 156 x 17mm (or 17.28 x 6.14 x 0.67 inches). This would be a VERY thick keyboard at 170mm!

Who chose your clothes? Mom?
So it's a massively overpriced clicklet keyboard that's way too big for FPS games and has keycaps that you cant replace yourself? What a joke.
That's why I love the Apple Magic Keyboard. It's 1mm travel and kinda nice if you like that
Why do people still buy full size? I know for a fact not everyone needs the number pad.
Been waiting for this type of wireless keyboard from Corsair or Logitech for a while, but it's way to expensive. Did settle for the K57 wireless and not disappointed.
I have the logitech G whatever wireless flat keyboard. Amazon had a discounted, B-ware unit and it is really good. The oily-ness of this keyboard freaking su kz. Also not all legends are transparent but just printed on. I can tell ya the Corsair K70 and other K models are so much better in every way and the mechanical feel is better but since I can type only on a keyboard like the Dell XPS, experienced the model from 2018, and the Logitech keyboard is so fun to type on and also play games. My main reason to leave corsair is the the battery life differences so that I did not get one of the wireless ones and also there were no models I liked since I like 10 Keys.
I never realised until the yesterday live stream that Plouffe is completely bald 😂 that explains the hat.
But he's still handsome, even without the hat. He's a kind of a Vsauce Plouffe..
more corsair junk
The fact that it's bluetooth and wi-fi is awesome for me. I want something to take back and forth between my steam deck, ally, and desktop… But not for $300
You can always choose Lenovo Trackpoint II over this keyboard.
corsair is a bunch of woke ass soy bois. never buy from them again.
Is that an omega mart hat I see, excellent taste👌
when you were explaining the pros and cons of iCue I actually nodded my head and said this guy Icues. Well said, if I didn't love the look of Lian Li I'd probably have stuck with the all corsair route, my ram is the only corsair man standing nowadays
Where do I get that hoodie though?
Test the Corsair dark star please
One nice thing, would be if we would start getting built in fingerprint reader in to keyboards… I don't understand why it is not the thing, in premium products these days.
6:40 finally someone said it! Bravo
Custom mech or bust. Idk why people over pay for this crap
You know the keyboard looked like the perfect choice for the media center PC and entertainment center me and my partner are building up but then I looked at the price and decided that membrane was just find for me for that lol, It's almost the equivalent of 320 USD in Sweden
Another correction. You keep mentioning the "screen" and how it would be really cool if the "screen" could display an animation or something. It looks like there isn't a screen. It's just a piece of plastic with some LEDs under that light up some icons
Jesus Christ, what is with that price tag. For that I can buy premium Topre keyboards.
People buying this sht are the same people causing inflation.
Still waiting for either Logitech to re-release the G15 but in a Mechanical, or Corsair to re-release the K95 Vengeance with an added screen.
It's Not razor thin it's Corsair thin
I use iCUE to BSOD people's computers. Because that's what it does to mine if I leave it installed.
Its the same switch as the Alienware laptop ones
thin keyboard will hurt ur wrist if u r not use to it.
I LOVE this keyboard. BUT Just a heads up, I bought the keyboard Dec 2022. The space bar started squeaking after a few months. Corsair support said to remove the space bar key and blow compressed air in it (but the keys are ultra slim and I didnt feel comfortable with pulling the key caps off) Amazon replaced the key board for me aaaaaand guess what? Just after a few weeks the replacement keyboard started doing the same thing.
I use the keyboard about 10-16 hours per day (WFH full time)
