"it also has three bluetooth assignments in addition to the wifi dongle, so i have the dongle connected to my main computer and then can switch over to one of the bluetooth when i use my work computer hooked up to my monitors, so no swapping keyboards."
"I use it with the adapter on my ps5 and Bluetooth on my pc. Seemless switching. My pc autoconnects in bluetooth mode and my ps5 auto connects when i swap back ... Ive got 0 complaints."
"Now I have all 3 on one wireless USB dongle that I swap between my work laptop and personal desktop. ... In the past I had to use a USB switch but I didn't like having so many wires on my desk."

"when hardwired with their power kit the parking mode never misses a motion event."
"We have four roborock S7’s running in our 5,000 sqft office. ... Bought them since they first came out years ago. ... They run every day. ... Only last year did we replace the battery for all 4. ... Other than that, no issue at all, rock solid, very pleased that we also have them for our homes too."
"My Roborock S7 does about 2,000 sqft twice a week since 2021, and it's still going strong"

"Timeless (1 or 2) is where IEM peaks for me personally, and diminishing return is hitting hard after that."

"The keys are precise and almost too responsive."
"No wierd double pressing or typing errors that are not my own fault."

"The macros are fairly easy to use, but, for some reason the macro keynrecord doesn't want to read key typing. I get around this easily with the direct add inputs options. ... I've actually been surprised with how well the macro buttons are working. The record key function doesn't, but after inputing the via command, it's been perfect. ... Here is the key macro framing I use to do in-game crafting while I'm not at home."
"i need the G-Keys for some actions in world of warcraft."
"If you need dedicated macro KB keys, then the K100 is about the only choice."

"My scimitar would randomly "unplug/replug" itself (Windows USB sound would play) ... and then it would forget all custom keybinds until I rebooted...often in the middle of a key. ... I chucked it out the window after a year of pain"
"iCue constantly explodes, requiring a reinstall to fix ... the settings you put on the headset REQUIRE iCue to reapply every time the headset connects. ... I have reinstalled iCue a number of times to try to make it work and its straight up ass IMO."
"Icue is so shit. ... But god forbid trying to reset up your bindings or trying to save them sometimes. ... So unintuitive. ... The worse ui I've used out of all the mice I've had over the last 20 years. ... Having to do macros for everything was stupid. ... I could never get the onboarding memory to work right either."

"Do not get this keyboard. Had it for awhile and the macro keys have never worked properly ... Idk I’ve tried a number of different ways to do very simple things and it just doesn’t work. ... I tried asking Corsair support they pretty much just said “yeah it’s the software, sorry” and that was it ... And for $300 everything better work properly every time"

"corsair does not recommend you remove the caps because they're a real bitch to get back on ... they want you to send the thing in to get worked on."
"My kid "removed" some keycaps from my Corsair K100 Air, which is when I found out these aren't easy to replace if it's even possible."

ammotyka 1.0I had this and it was awesome until my dogs tail spilled beer all over it and it stopped working. Back to the G915 for now, still happy with this KB but I think I liked the K100 air slightly better
cheatsie95 1.0I loved this keyboard without a doubt. I thought I was upgrading by going to the k100 air wireless. (I absolutely was not, that thing is BADLY made) now I’m enjoying the 70 pro TKL It’s definitely gotta be the best full size keyboard I’ve had so far. I hope you enjoy it!
daneguy 1.0My kid "removed" some keycaps from my Corsair K100 Air, which is when I found out these aren't easy to replace if it's even possible. So I'm in the market for a new keyboard. Requirements: - Wireless - With numpad - Easily repairable (this is standard stuff for like 95% of boards I guess, but since I apparently bought one of the exception, I stil want to mention this) - I like clicky but not too loud, will also be used in the office - Emphasis on reliable BT connection - RGB not needed - Mac compatible - Max around €150 (based in The Netherlands I've been looking around but every time I think I find something, I dig a bit deeper and I find issues with build quality or BT... Looked into Redragon, Royal Kludge, Epomaker, Keychron, and others. Any brands I want to look into that I'm missing? Thanks a lot in advance! Boy is this a rabbit hole haha... EDIT: I looked around a bit more and went for the Aula F99 Pro with the Nimbus V3 switches and the side-printed black keycaps :)
MaximumPowerTransfer 1.0I've had mine for about a year now and have no complaints. It convinced me to get the M75 mouse and the virtuoso XT headset/mic too. Now I have all 3 on one wireless USB dongle that I swap between my work laptop and personal desktop. In the past I had to use a USB switch but I didn't like having so many wires on my desk.
oldrjohnson11 1.0I prefer a full size keyboard. I have the K100 wireless and it's great.
rasmasyean 1.0If you want something thin and portable, the K100 Air is pretty cool. Though IMO not as good for "gaming" as the heavy keyboards. But it's easy to move around and use it on the couch, etc.
Tadpole-Jackson 1.0Purchased this around 9 months ago I believe and have been using it daily. The only complaint I have is that some of the keys have become a little squeaky over time, which apparently is a fairly common issue. There are some methods to add lubricant, however it's a little tricky since the key caps really shouldn't be removed
xInitial 1.0have had mine for over a year and i love it. coming from the old deathstalker with chiclet keys, i tried the g pro, huntsman v3, even the mx keys and some more “enthusiast” mechanical offerings but i needed the numpad (if anyone tells you you’re not going to miss it just disregard anything else they say from now on) and i ended up wanting this low profile type of keyboard but no one really had one that was a little more premium. it really ticked all the niche boxes i wanted in a keyboard. also when i ordered it i think it was on back order and corsair emailed me saying that they don’t have any in stock and i can wait or cancel. i told them im fine to wait and that i didn’t really need it all too quick, and a brand new one showed up at my door less than a week later
YouCallWeShouldWhat 1.0oh! this again. typing on this now, got the revival for the same price. full disclosure, mine came with one key sticking and i immediately popped it off to clean it out underneath and learned that corsair does not recommend you remove the caps because they're a real bitch to get back on, they want you to send the thing in to get worked on. found a youtube video some random guy teaching you how to do it and thank god im a guitarist lmao. https://youtu.be/3gvJT75ipKM?si=bmhHyPKriofCiLwf just in case you need to do the same, it takes time but it's doable with the right tools. it also solved the sticking key issue since i could clean it out just fine. highly recommend this keyboard, it's perfect in my opinion for my use case, not too clacky and has a mix of laptop keyboard feel while being very satisfying and responsive. made my old mechanical keyboard feel overexaggerated almost, as if i was pushing each key more than necessary in comparison. it also has three bluetooth assignments in addition to the wifi dongle, so i have the dongle connected to my main computer and then can switch over to one of the bluetooth when i use my work computer hooked up to my monitors, so no swapping keyboards. really clean, i think it's worth the $100 i paid as long as i get another two years out of it at least and it's held up for a year now really well so i'm hoping that it will keep doing so.
Agreeable-Barber2398 0.4Ngl when I got my k100 1-9 on the top were a different color than the color I selected . Everything was up to date and then eventually a few days later it sorted itself out?! Idk I’m not sure if that’s going to be the case for you but definitely the keyboards are finicky
