Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Corsair K100 Air Wireless keyboard may not be my introduction to the Corsair product line. I've previously used the K70 and K95, both solid gaming keyboards. However, it has quickly become my favorite after spending some time with it. I've also owned a few wireless keyboards in the past but none were actual gaming keyboards. And as someone who likes to be "cord free", the idea of a premium gaming keyboard that's also wireless was something that I had to experience. After unpackaging my new K100 Air, I was thoroughly impressed with the build quality of this unit. Despite only being 17mm thick, the K100 Air feels rather sturdy and durable for being constructed with aluminum. The thin profile is a plus since most gaming keyboards tend to be on the "clunky" side. Although it's pretty rigid, it doesn't weigh a ton. It's rather light, which makes it the perfect choice for a travel keyboard. The Cherry MX Ultra Low Profile keys feel phenomenal. I probably do more PC gaming on my laptop than my desktop, so I really appreciate the look and feel of the K100 Air because it has the look and feel of my laptop keyboard while delivering that satisfying "click" that my mechanical keyboards deliver. All of the keys feel nice and solid and don't sway under the weight of your fingertips. Gaming Keyboards and RGB go hand-in-hand and if you want to get the most out of the K100 Air, you're gonna need to install the new iCUE software. I've probably spent just as much time customizing color patterns as I have actually using the keyboard. The amount of options almost seems endless as you can configure the keys to look like and do just about anything you can imagine. One of the coolest features on the K100 Air is the ability to connect to multiple devices. I have this paired up with my gaming machine, my work machine and my PS5. Switching between devices is seamless and I get the same reliable connection on all of my devices. Usually, I would have to have 3 separate keyboards hooked up, which would all be different. Now I just move from device to device with the same keyboard, sit down and I'm ready to go. A benefit that I have now, that I never knew I was missing out on. Overall, if you're looking for the functionality of a premium gaming keyboard, coupled with the freedom of wireless connectivity, the Corsair K100 Air Wireless keyboard just might be what you've been looking for. The K100 Air is a full sized wireless mechanical keyboard that is highly customizable, low latency, and offers masterful wireless multi-tasking through the seamless switching between paired devices.

Absolute trash keyboard, continues to have issues of not responding to key strokes then spamming a random key. Tried resetting keyboard multiple times and continue to check for any updates yet continue to have problems multiple times a day with this keyboard.

Recently i brought this keyboard and it always disconnects with if you use dongle. And i had to reach out to the customer care and they replaced which worked perfectly fine. Instead of buying from best buy directly buy from product store.

For me, the appeal of a gaming keyboard being wireless and low-profile is that it's easy to store. That's important for me since my gaming computer is hooked up to a TV instead of a desk. I was worried that this configuration would make it work less well, but that doesn't seem to be the case. There's been no connectivity issues, no input lag, and once I got used to the flat keys it just felt like gaming on my laptop. And it does all of this without sacrificing configurable RGB. One issue I've had with wireless keyboards in the past is that they have short ranges. If the receiver ever gets out of line-of-sight or the keyboard gets more than three feet away, it becomes barely functional. I appreciate that Corsair has avoided this issue without necessitating a large dongle or a Bluetooth connection, since both would be pretty awkward for my system. I can use my keyboard sitting at a comfortable distance from the 50" TV I have my computer connected to and notice no issues. Honestly, this is one of my favorite keyboards so far. It's responsive, feels nice to use, has RGB that looks good and is programmable and can be reactive, has everything else I'd expect from a gaming keyboard like macros and programmable keys, and it does all of this while being super thin and portable. Being able to stuff the thing into the gap under my TV when I'm done with it without fiddling about with wires or USB3 extension cables is a breath of fresh air after trying to use wired keyboards with my system, and to me it feels like it has a reasonable enough battery I don't have to worry about it too much. While there are probably more ergonomic solutions if you sit at a desk, I would totally recommend this keyboard for anyone who uses their gaming computer as though it's a console and part of an entertainment center.

poor real poor u cant bump it u cant do anything with it or its going out like it did with me not good at all it boke i paid 200 dollars and i am out of 200 dollas

4 hours of use and the space bar started to stick in the down position making the keyboard completely unusable had to return it because corsair customer support for warranty work took almost 2 weeks to respond.

This is a piece of garbage. It does not type, and then when it types, it gets stock on one letter and types it indefinitely. Do not recommend to buy an overpriced piece of garbage.

I’m not going to pretend to be a connoisseur of mechanical keyboards; my knowledge and experience here are limited. But so far, I really love the parameters of the key switches and I like the aesthetics of the overall design. [ The key switches ] The Cherry MX Ultra Low Profile switches employed feel like the polar opposite of the Cherry MX Red (linear), which I absolutely hated to use. The pre-activation travel is very short but is also masked by not being ‘soft’ travel. There’s an extremely narrow margin between having just enough pressure to activate key travel, and having enough to bottom out, to the point that if you can get the key moving, you’ve almost certainly reached the point of no return. While it has less total travel than the pre-travel of most other keyboard switches, I don’t feel like I’m missing out on tactile feedback. I’m sure this won’t suit everyone’s preference, but I happen to really like it. I think I have better typing accuracy with these switches than any others I’ve used. It felt a little unusual when gaming, but I think I’m just going to need a longer adjustment period than the three days I was allotted for testing before reviewing. [ Aesthetics ] The brushed aluminum front plate looks sharp. Corsair did a very good job of limiting the bleed-through of lighting around the edges of the keys; it’s really only visible from extreme angles. This is something either not done well or overlooked entirely by many other backlit/RGB keyboards. I can see why they decided to combine the G-keys (macro keys) with the wireless/Bluetooth keys, but it makes using both features inconvenient. Using them for wireless switching requires holding the 'Fn' key which, because of its distance, will require two-handed operation for many users (myself included). Using them as macro keys, the location above the keypad is far from ideal for use in general but downright problematic for gaming. This is by far my least favorite design choice of this model. My second least favorite design aspects are the status indicators at the middle top. They’re too small for my taste and have a sort of mottled pixelation that just does not look good. Coming in third among my disapprovals is the inconsistent lighting coverage across the cutouts of the keys. For example, in the ‘scroll lock’ key, the ‘C’ loses a significant amount of lighting compared to its neighboring ‘R’, and the ‘S’ is downright dark. It’s worth noting that the secondary function cutouts on the keys are unlit. For example, the percent sign under the number 5 key, ‘END’ under the number 1 keypad key, and the wireless icons on the G-keys are all unlit. [ Other thoughts ] This keyboard seems to be more susceptible to wireless interference and poor signal quality than other wireless keyboards and mice that I’ve used, both when using the dongle and when connecting via Bluetooth. This can result in laggy key responses or even cause events to drop entirely, like a key up event dropping causing a key press to trigger constant repeats. The ‘hardware’ profile is used instead of the ‘wireless’ profile when connected via Bluetooth which may seem counterintuitive but makes sense from a technical perspective. The iCUE software has improved since I last used it, but it still has its issues. For example, it wanted to constantly nag me about saving hardware profiles to the keyboard’s memory even when I had done so and verified them to be working. It still lacks scripting support which a top competitor implements in their software, though Corsair does provide an arguably less convenient developer SDK. On the positive side, the lighting effects configuration is pretty extensible with lots of preset animation types and options, as well as support for layers. [ Conclusion ] I’m particularly critical in my judgments; I almost always find a lot of things to nitpick about, and this keyboard proved no exception. However, it feels like a step up from any other keyboard I’ve used, thanks primarily to the Cherry MX Ultra Low Profile switches used. The short key travel won’t be for everyone, but you might be pleasantly surprised if you give it a try.

Generally a high end quality product by all accounts. However, the one I picked out of the box would not work. Had to return it to the store in disapointment.

I really love this keyboard, but it’s really expensive and I was still left wanting more. Great typing experience, love how firm the switches are and am a sucker for the chiclet style keys. The RGB lighting is stellar and Corsair is one of the few companies that have Mac support. Great layout and it’s fairly minimalistic with great battery life even with lighting on. The piece that might be great for some, but was what left me wanting more was the audible click of the keyboard. I really love the audible feedback of blue switches and after reading a few reviews and reading Corsair’s description I’d convinced myself that there’d be enough of an audible click to go along with all of the other positives I loved about this keyboard. It’s really the one thing I would change if I could. Still a great keyboard and some might be 100% satisfied, but I’m not sure it was worth the price I paid for it.

If you like mechanical keyboards, this is not the keyboard for you. Aside from that, it feels very cheap. I was very disappointed. I will be returning the keyboard tomorrow.

Broke within the first two weeks of purchase. Similar results from what others experienced.

There’s a ton to love about Corsair’s latest offering for wireless mechanical keyboards. I think this is one of the thinnest keyboards I have ever used. Even so, the key switches feel great, and it doesn’t impact my ability to type quickly, and, you still get the full Corsair experience with full customization of the keyboard lighting and functionality. The Design - the design is SUPER thing and there’s a lot to love here. The keyboard has a really nice-looking brushed aluminum key base with a textured hard plastic bottom. The two pieces come together to make a very thin but rigid full sized keyboard. The keys are spaced appropriately for me and are very easy to type on. Fingers don’t feel cramped together or forced into position. The Cherry MX Ultra Low Profile switches feel amazing. They’ve got a tactile feel and don’t sound too clicky. They’re stiff but don’t require an unnatural amount of force to actuate. If you’ve used Corsair keyboards before, then many of the button layouts will be familiar with profile switching, brightness control, and a multi function windows lock button as dedicated keys and a LED panel with illuminated indicators that let you know the status of the keyboard. I was also delighted to see 4 dedicated macro keys above the numpad which also serve as a way to switch between connection modes. Finally, media keys take up the top right part of the keyboard. Features – There’s a lot of features packed into this keyboard which you can setup to your liking using the iCue software. Aside from what can be done without iCue (more on that later) you can set up layers and layers of RGB. Also, you can reassign keys to perform different functions, including keystrokes, macros, launch programs, and even integration into Voicemod and Elgato Streamdeck. If there’s a repetitive key combo your constantly hitting, you can assign it to quickly execute with a dedicated G-Key. Also, Corsair iCue is also one of the most widely used plugin for RGB lighting and very compatible with 3rd party lighting effects. As far as features outside of iCue software, I sometimes record macros to reduce keyboard input commands within software used at work. If things change, I can go in and re-record those macros on the fly. This makes for quick work navigating through application menus and executing commands. Connectivity – Probably one of the most useful features for me is the ability to pair three Bluetooth devices, plus whatever the slipstream receiver is plugged into. I have a work laptop, gaming laptop, and a personal desktop as well as an iPad. My work laptop and desktop share monitors. It’s nice having one keyboard and one mouse to share between the two when I want to switch from work to play. Although not used this way as often, This keyboard is thin and light enough to throw into my backpack so I have a full size keyboard when I want to get some work done (I’ve grown to using a numpad fairly heavily). Switching between the dongle and Bluetooth takes less than a couple seconds. If you frequently switch between machines this will be a luxury. Performance – Most people don’t consider too much about performance when talking about keyboards but a lot goes into low latency and response time as well as all the lighting layers and hardware profiles. Using what Corsair calls their Hyper Processing Technology, Axon, it can deliver polling rates up to 8,000 when wired and 2,000 using slipstream technology. I’m not sensitive enough to small delays in keyboards to personally tell a difference, but what I can tell you, I can’t the difference when it’s wired or wireless. Knowing that I’m not going to notice lag when gaming helps keep a clean aesthetic on my desktop by forgoing the wires, only needing them for a charge. Gaming – Gaming performance is just like using a wired keyboard. As mentioned above, I can’t tell the difference with it plugged in or wireless. The difference is you don’t have the cords in your way so you can position the keyboard wherever you need to. Inputs are smooth and because it’s a full size keyboard, there’s no concerns with hitting the wrong key because keys are too close. WSAD keys are fully customizable so you can quickly see them and get your hand positioned and because each key is individually mappable, if you wanted to color code your buttons, you can do that too. The key switches feel good when gaming and are very responsive. Other thoughts – I like how the keys at top are flush with the keyboard. It just helps add to the aesthetics. USB C charging is nice to see and should be standard on ALL electronics at this point. Dedicated on/off switch so you don’t accidently smash keys in transport. A nice little pocket for your dongle is cut out at the top, and again, should be the gold standard if your device comes with a dongle. The only thing that is concerning about this design, is I worry that, because it IS so incredibly thin, is it more prone to damage? For example, if I throw it in my backpack, and lean back against it, is it going to bend or warp? It feels very sturdy in the hands, but I know aluminum isn’t known for it’s hardness. Time will tell. Finally, I like how much you can do on the keyboard without the need for iCue, right out of the box. Preset color options using FN+1-0, keyboard macros, device connectivity, checking battery levels are all available before you ever install iCue. After iCue is installed, you can power up what you can do when your without the software with hardware profiles. Final Thoughts – If you need a highly customizable, full sized, full featured keyboard, that is wireless, ultra low latency, mechanical, onboard macro recording, with connections to multiple devices that can switch seamlessly, I’m not sure what other boxes you would want to check. I love this keyboard and look forward to daily driving it. It may even end up being the keyboard I just use for everything.

The Corsair K100 Air Wireless Gaming Keyboard is a high-quality gaming keyboard that could give serious gamers an edge in their gaming. This keyboard is a high-quality, RGB mechanical wireless keyboard that is intended for high-performance gaming. The keyboard has serious features – such as an ability to connect via a highspeed wireless connection technology called SLIPSTREAM, and ultra-low profile Cherry MX mechanical switches for the keys. These keys help to enable a 17mm profile deign of the keyboard. Key Features include multi-device connectivity that allow the keyboard to connect via Slipstream high-speed wireless, 3 Bluetooth devices, and or USB Wired, an estimated run time of up to 50 hours per charge which can be extended with adaptive brightness features, AXON Hyper-processing technology to run complex onboard profiles and lighting effects, four (4) programmable G keys for custom shortcuts, macros, application launching, and more. The keyboard functions with PC, Mac, Mobile (iOS and Android via Bluetooth), Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 4 and 5. On the PC the device can be configured and controlled via Corsair’s iCUE software and for Bluetooth connectivity the device must be Bluetooth 4.0p or higher and support standard keyboard HID input. The keyboard is rounded out with Media controls that include a volume roller as well as onboard lighting. An final interesting feature is the on a PC or Mac with the iCUE software running the keyboard runs is a software mode and for other systems without the ICUE software it runs in hardware mode with profiles and setting saved in the 8MB of onboard storage. Usage Impressions: The K100 Air Wireless is a high-quality keyboard that is oriented at avid and professional gamers. The keyboard works great for other uses as well. I have especially liked the feel of the keys and the audio controls. I have also found the keyboard back lighting option to be a fun addition to the keyboard allowing you to set the mood of one’s gaming or work sessions. I like the capabilities of the keyboard and the unit’s battery life is excellent, but this is not a keyboard that one would normally think of for every day. The connectivity options provide a whole host of options for each usage scenario. I have noticed that there is an initial lag with the keyboard/system must wake up and the first key press may be missed. Overall, this is a high-quality gaming keyboard. The investment required to have it will be one that only you can decide if it is right for you. Pros: Build quality, Connectivity options, audio controls, and lighting Cons: Initial Lag when it first starts up

I was a bit apprehensive moving to this keyboard, and was unsure if the hype was to be believed. But oh my is this good. It took me maybe an hour to get used to the layout and the key travel, and once I did, typing felt effortless. And now when I use any other keyboard it just feels inferior. Before using it, the low key travel was the one I was most worried about, but you don't even remember it once you get the hang of it, and the keys feel super precise, and no matter if you hit the middle, the corner or the edge, your key stroke is always registered accurately. A few items I wish it had - a bit more of an incline (at least an option of one), and a palm rest - I have a desk pad and so its not as bad, but my wrists could do with some more cushion. And I find it's pretty annoying, that somehow it does not auto reconnect, when my system wakes up from hibernation. This is while connected with the USB dongle, and I have to replug the dongle. The included software iCue seems to still be in its early stages of developments, are there are some kinks. But you have to use it to set custom color profiles. You can also cycle through the preset color profiles right from the keyboard as well, and I stuck to it. Overall - The keyboard looks pretty and sleek and high-end. Its absolutely terrific to type on and is precise. And for these reasons its a definite recommendation.

Unboxing the Corsair K100 Air Wireless RGB Ultra-Thin mechanical gaming keyboard reveals the keyboard, some manuals, a usb a to usb c cable, and the 2.5 ghz wireless usb dongle. The dongle is found inserted into a storage slot on the rear edge of the keyboard. I was somewhat disappointed to see that extra key caps were not included. I’ve had other Corsair gaming keyboards and inevitably keycaps break. I sure hope these key caps are resilient to many long hours of intense gaming. Time will tell but feel backup keycaps should be in the box. Also missing is a wrist wrest. Perhaps the wrist wrest isn’t available because this keyboard is so thin measuring only 17mm at its thickest point and 11mm at its thinnest. This keyboard looks like no other gaming keyboard that I’ve ever used. It is super thin and sleek with what appears to be a dark brushed metal exterior. The key caps are low profile and look like those found on laptops so all in all the K100 Air is a stunner. The K100 uses Cherry MX ultra low-profile mechanical switches which have just 1.8mm of travel. These switches also actuate at 0.8mm. I love that there are multimedia controls on the K100 Air. The volume roller is quite nice for easy volume adjustments while in game. There are also 4 macro keys on the K100 Air. There are 3 ways to connect the K100 Air to your pc including hyper fast slipstream wireless via the included dongle, Bluetooth, or usb cable. You can also switch connections effortlessly using a button on the keyboard to 3 different devices. While it’s nice to have the wireless options, I intend to use it via usb which would provide the best responsiveness. Plus when using as a wired keyboard you can use an 8,000 hz hyper-polling mode with a .125ms response. That is sweet! I already own a Corsair keyboard so their iCUE app was already installed. Make sure to get the latest version and then update the keyboard firmware. Here you can also setup the RGB effects. There is a multitude of lighting options. If you’re using light effects while on wireless you’ll get about 50 hours of battery time but with effects turned off you’ll get 200 hours. I’m always excited to try new gaming hardware due to the potential gaming edge upgraded hardware can offer so I jumped on one of my favorite games to check out the K100 Air. I’m also somewhat apprehensive about using new hardware because new hardware can feel awkward which of course can negatively impact your gameplay. That was in fact my initial sense about this keyboard. The low profile key caps felt odd compared to my other gaming keyboards. I also noticed that when removing my hands momentarily from the keyboard the low key caps seemed to make it quite difficult to find my hand position again. I concluded this would take some time to get accustomed to. After many hours of playing I adjusted nicely to these differences. As I played I could immediately sense a greatly responsiveness on this keyboard. In game movements and reaction times were much faster and more fluid. This paid off in outmaneuvering my opponents. This is what it’s all about. My old keyboard maxed out at 1,000 hz so the advantages of the K100 Air’s 8,000 hz polling mode in combination with the ultra low profile switches was very noticeable. Milliseconds add up in gaming and I quickly recognized a new advantage over my opponents. Without a doubt this is the best gaming keyboard I had ever used.

The Corsair K100 Air is a dream for keyboard snobs who don’t want to be prying off keys and swapping switches all the time. For those that aren’t aware, there is a sizable market of users that love taking apart keyboards and customizing them to their liking. These keyboards tend to be an expensive endeavor when all is said and done. I say this to help people understand why this keyboard being $280 is not as crazy as you might think. The Corsair K100 Air has the best build quality I’ve ever experienced with a keyboard. Much of the keyboard is built out of brushed aluminum which gives it a super-premium feel and finish. I think the use of aluminum here is a fantastic decision since the Corsair K100 Air is unbelievably thin. In fact, its almost as thin as my smartphone keys included. Aluminum helps keep a nice rigid feel with no flex or uneasy feeling when typing. The keys honestly remind me of a nice laptop key. This could be viewed as a knock, but its not. The Corsair K100 Air is an ultra-thin keyboard. Its impossible to put full size keys in this keyboard. If they did, it wouldn’t be an ultra-thin anymore. Anyone buying this keyboard, is probably buying it for the aesthetics, not really the super gaming/typing performance. This keyboard provides good playability and typeability, but that’s not its core mission. The mission for this keyboard is to look like a 2-D sticker of a keyboard on your desk. In this sense, it accomplishes its mission better than any keyboard on the market. It looks simply incredible. Anyone who has a high-end gaming or workstation that wants a space-age keyboard pulled out of the hands of a time traveler from 2045 will love this keyboard. There are tons of high-end features like a metal scroll wheel on the top right corner. This scroll wheel feels like you own a $280 keyboard. Its precision metal textured, and scrolls as smooth as a steel ball bearing. The entire time I’ve used this keyboard I’ve always felt like its simply built better than anything else I’ve ever used before. Its never felt like a simple plastic keyboard. I think that’s the biggest takeaway for the past few days I’ve used it. It’s a completely superior feeling product. If you can swing the $280 price tag and want to add another great looking piece to your workstation/gaming rig, then the Corsair K100 Air is an absolute must. Especially if you want a thin, metal keyboard.

With a low-profile design, it is the slimmest I’ve ever seen on a gaming keyboard. That alone would have convinced me to buy it, but it is much more than that. There’s no plasticky feel here. It is plain solid, sturdy, brushed aluminum alloy. It looks and feels premium. Using the wireless dongle, latency is a mere one millisecond, which is adequate even for the most demanding games. Many monitors have a much higher latency than that. When using Bluetooth, latency was comparatively much higher and there were some glitches, which I’m mostly blaming my computer Bluetooth since I’ve experienced similar issues with other keyboards. However, it seems that it supports Bluetooth 4 instead of 5. Still, for gaming, Bluetooth should not even be considered. Default backlighting is not overwhelming, which is great. I don’t need my keyboard lighting competing with my computer screen and it doesn’t. It is there to add coolness and provide visual clues when the room is not lit enough. It does that well and you can customize it fully, even per individual keys. Being a gaming keyboard, it gives you a lot of customization with keymapping. I have a lot to experiment yet, but I like what I have seen so far. It is just a big louder than I like, but it’s not bad. Again, Corsair K100 is incredibly thin, but no compromise that I can tell. Battery seems to last forever even with backlighting on. They say it lasts between 50 and 200 hours. The upper range is for no backlighting. In my experience, the battery is still going after about a week, using it for an average of about 4 or 5 hours. The software to customize it is also commendable. With it, you can set the keyboard to PlayStation mode. That was unexpected but very welcome. Of course, you can customize keys, RGB lights, and so on. Definitely recommend.

The CORSAIR K100 AIR Wireless Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, is CORSAIR’s thinnest, 11mm thick, highest-performance keyboard to date. The sophisticated, brushed aluminum keyboard frame provides great connectivity, 3+2 for multiple devices including Window’s and macOS, the K100 AIR delivers and then some! It is great for games, business and visual arts use due to the color mappable keyboard. The industry standard hyper-responsive CHERRY MX Ultra Low Profile mechanical keyswitches provide tactile, and reliable keystrokes without needing the height of a full-size keyswitch. The K100 AIR has three ways to connect to devices: hyper-fast SLIPSTREAM WIRELESS, low-latency Bluetooth® on up to three host devices, or USB wired mode on PC and Mac (two devices). The USB connection enables 8,000Hz hyper-polling for ultra-responsive gaming. The keyboard’s battery provides around 50 hours of life while using the dazzling RGB backlighting, or around 200 hours, sans backlighting. The K100 AIR can switch between the wireless connections on your PC, laptop, tablet, and more providing multi-tasking. Security is provided by AES 128-bit encryption. You have four fully programmable macro keys that enable you to perform complex macros, actions, and launch applications, while media keys and a programmable volume roller give you superb control. The K100 AIR has 8MB of storage to save up to 50 profiles, macros and up to 20 RGB effects using CORSAIR’s AXON Hyper-Processing Technology and CORSAIR iCUE software. The iCUE software allows you to modify your key map and RGB lighting.

My first mechanical KB was a Corsair and I stuck with them for years and still love them. As options became more abundant I found I love low profile keys. No need for a wrist rest and faster actuation of the keys because of the shorter travel. I bought Corsair's first low profile KB, but that was just a half hearted attempt where they just made the caps shorter and didn't decrease the activation distance. I didn't end up using it much. Now the Corsair K100 Air Wireless makes up for what was wrong in the first go. The KB is thin, very low profile caps that require around 1mm of travel, and the best RBG lighting I've seen in any KB - Corsair always had nice saturated and bright RGB leds. ICue has blown up to a ridiculous size hitting a 1GB download and does pretty much the same thing that previous versions did at 300MB. I really don't enjoy the bloat, but I do like the software. I've always found customizing animations and modifying layers easier in iCue than other KB software. I'm more of a static guy, but do like the ripple effect on keypress. Corsair K100 Air Wireless is a definite keeper. The comfort and software are almost unbeatable.
