For many years there has been a belief that wireless keyboards can’t match the performance of wired keyboards, despite the fact that devices like this CORSAIR K100 AIR Wireless, announced by CORSAIR in early September, let us categorically deny it. But of course, to be fair, we have to admit that this was true in the early days of wireless technology applied to keyboards and mice. In these early days, delay it was practically negligible for many tasks, but exceptionally high for those that required almost immediate response.

Manufacturers like CORSAIR realize the importance of improving in this regard and did not hesitate so much add the most innovative connection systems, such as the development of proprietary technologies to get the most out of these connection protocols. As a result, we’ve been talking about wireless keyboards like this CORSAIR K100 AIR Wireless for quite some time now, which have nothing to envy their wired counterparts, or at least for the vast majority of users. And for them, this K100 AIR also has a solution.

But in order to understand what we are talking about, we must already deal with the analysis of its connectivity options. At the wireless level, we can choose between technology High speed SLIPSTREAM WIRELESSwhich we already know from other CORSAIR keyboards and which offers very high performance, and Low Latency Bluetooth which we can configure simultaneously on up to three devices. To switch between them, we just need to press a key and security is guaranteed thanks 128-bit AES encryption.

Now, as I’ve already indicated, what happens when this performance is generally tailored to your needs, but at more or less specific times you need to hit the limit with a wired connection? well in that case You can also connect this CORSAIR K100 AIR Wireless to your computer with a cable (Windows and macOS), making the connection based on CORSAIR AXON hyperprocessing technology, which provides a sampling frequency of 8,000 hertz.

In terms of design, the CORSAIR K100 AIR Wireless boasts of being the manufacturer’s thinnest gaming keyboard, measuring tjust 11 millimeters at the thinnest point its construction is made of brushed aluminum. For control, it integrates Tactile CHERRY MX Ultra Low Profile mechanical switches, designed to offer a full-touch feel with just 0.8 millimeters of travel.

Of course, and speaking of the keyboard playing gamesCORSAIR K100 AIR Wireless cIt has RGB lighting, which we can manage and combine with the rest of the components and peripherals of our system through CORSAIR iCUE. If you use it with the keyboard in wireless mode, its battery provides up to 50 hours of autonomy, which is multiplied by four if we use the keyboard with the lighting off.

The CORSAIR K100 AIR Wireless Keyboard is now available for purchase through CORSAIR’s network of authorized dealers and resellers for an RRP of €299.99.
