Overpriced keyboard with buggy customization

Good keyboard but for the price, there are definitely better options available. Until Corsair delivers on their promise to bring iCue to the keyboard for full functionality, 220 dollars on this keyboard is nowhere near worth it. The only option available is an extremely buggy and sub-par web-based customization. On top of that Corsair promised iCue integration would arrive about a month ago now and has been radio silent since.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Decided to get a new keyboard and although it is very nice, iCue software is super trash.

I'm giving 4 stars which kind of stinks, because I absolutely love this keyboard. I'll start with the good- typing on it right now and setting the actuation manually and quickly is a great feature. The hall effect is a neat feature, as are the absolutely insanely complex custom lighting options with layering. I love the ability to upload images to my screen (I stare at my business logo all day as I type), and the wheel is firm, and this thing is sturdy. The key bind and macro-options are flexible and full of neat options including custom G1-G5 button binds.
Pros:
Solid Build
Great RGB options
Smooth Typing
If you're a keyboard gamer, this is perfectly customizable
Why I'm giving 4 stars:
I spent roughly an hour trying to connect to the Corsair web hub app. I had to reset cookies, try new browsers, and do no less than 4 hard resets. I used the instruction manual, but in the end, one feature I could not resolve was the 8000 Hz polling. In my experience, setting it any higher than 2000 Hz crashes the keyboard, requiring a hard firmware reset (which resets all custom key binds/lighting/etc.).
Overall I love this thing. Please don't let the 4 stars dissuade you!

Doesn’t work with iCue software, screen is very limited in customizability, and the form factor still is a little over TKL. Not suitable for smaller stations. You can pick up the Corsair TKL with the exact same switches for less money.

I love using this keyboard. It’s smooth, soft clicks and very light.
