A lovely upgrade to my previous Corsair keyboard
I got this keyboard after friends suggested it and even donated money so I could afford it. It is so, so nice! The keys are super responsive, and since I have rheumatoid arthritis, the less effort to push the keys is amazing. I had enjoyed my previous low profile keyboard by Corsair, and while I still very much miss it (poor thing got its keys stuck in the middle), I am happy to have this keyboard. The new buttons - media dial + Steam Deck macro buttons - are going to take some getting used to, but I'm excited to learn and explore all the features. It's also super lightweight and super nice quality wise. It's also has the first Corsair wrist rest I've actually enjoyed, as this one is cushioned and soft. My only complaint is it is very long/large, but I expected that and made some space on my desk. All in all, it's super nice. I'm so happy friends helped me get it. I've put some stickers on it as my seal of approval! :)

phenomenal keyboard
Really nice keyboard - undeniably the best keyboard I personally have ever used, aesthetically and functionally. I work on my computer all day and when I am not working I enjoy gaming and trading, so my hardware is under consistent daily use. That being said this keyboard feels extremely solid and well built. The wrist guard feels good, the keys feel good and overall the quality level is really high. The well thought out look and feel would be immediately noticed by anybody. In terms of work, it handles and feels great and I appreciate that it seems be to be quieter than other mechanical keyboards I have owned. As far as gaming, it feels good and has a fantastic response, I also enjoy the included textured keys for "WASD". I have been building my own PC's for years and this current build has many Corsair parts (RAM, Cooler, Case, Mouse) so I appreciate that all of various features and lighting effects can be managed under one software, being iCue, which makes for easy use and adjustment of the multiple features. So far in my experience there are no downsides to this keyboard with exception to the price. For a brand new build, $200 to allocate to the keyboard does not make much sense when I would think someone would prioritize funds towards CPU, MOBO, GPU, SSD or RAM - So overall, this is phenomenal keyboard and I am satisfied with what I paid with respect to its value and performance and also compared to what I know is available for under $100- I also believe it is for the customer looking for high end accessories to compliment an already complete high end build. (Ryzen 9 5900x, Asus ROG Strix X-570-e Wifi II, Corsair H150i Elite, Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 3600, RX 6900XT)

Worth it!
Everything i wanted in a keyboard. Has TONS of customization and different tools to make your keyboard do exactly what you want. I love the lighting. The responsivness of the keys in insane! They boast a 1mm activation of keys. They were not kidding! Simply resting my hand on the keyboard and i find myself hitting buttoms on accident. Not a down side by any means. Worth the price. And if you have multipule corsair devices, you can link them all together for a spectacular light show if desired.
