Whether you spend a lot of time in front of the computer, especially typing, or you like to play with a keyboard and mouse instead of a controller, mechanical keyboards are always the most recommended option. While it is true that one can opt for membrane keyboards, not all of them are valid for these purposes.
If we don’t really like the long key travel of most keyboards with mechanical switches, a great option among membrane keyboards is found in the K55 corea keyboard that Corsair has just presented at CES which is being held these days in Las Vegas and is now available for sale.
Corsair K55 Core
The Corsair K55 Core is a full-fledged keyboard with a modern look and a light profile, far removed from the traditional height of mechanical keyboards, which allows us to hide it under any monitor stand that we usually use on our desk . This is a membrane keyboard that we allow you to carry out all types of movements and precise form actions without which it does not take into account any type of noise, so it is ideal for you not to disturb the people you are dealing with, especially if you only play or work in this way. the nights.
It is ideal for all types of games since it allows us to press up to 12 keys simultaneously with a polling of 1000 Hz avoiding any type of delay in actions where it is necessary to be as precise as possible. One of the points that cannot fail to be highlighted about this keyboard is that it includes dedicated multimedia keys on the top right of the keyboard. These multimedia keys allow us to control playback as well as sound in addition to turning it on and off with a simple press.
Just to the right of this media control keyboard, there is also a dedicated button to lock the Windows key without needing to perform keystrokes or use Corsair’s iCue application. Below this button, there is a dedicated button to control the lighting of this keyboard.
The Corsair K55 Core has 10 lighting zones which we can customize through the iCue application and which we can activate or deactivate from the dedicated button that we talked about in the previous paragraph. As if that were not enough and to avoid one of the problems that usually prevents many keyboards from working, is the spilling of liquids, a problem that will be found in the K55 Core, as it resists spills up to at 330 ml.
