Corsair has just lifted the veil on the K100 Air, a new gaming keyboard as thin as it is sober and… seductive?

The price, on the other hand, will probably be less attractive.

Fashion is also about finesse at Corsair

While Razer has just launched its DeathStalker Pro 2, it’s Corsair’s turn to seduce players looking for a keyboard whose main characteristic is its finesse. Make way for the K100 Air, a product with a thickness of only 11 mm at its thinnest point.

Using the classic brushed aluminum chassis found on most Corsair keyboards, this high-end product offers switches Cherry MX Ultra Low Profile tuners. Usable via a USB cable, this keyboard can also work via Bluetooth (on up to three devices) and with Corsair’s Slipstream wireless technology.

The manufacturer promises a battery life of 50 hours with backlight activated (or 200 hours without), while the latter can always be personalized via the iCUE software. Same thing for profiles and macros (four dedicated keys are part above the numeric keypad). These keys can also be used to switch from one Bluetooth device to another. There are also multimedia keys and a volume wheel, while the various indicators and lights are grouped together at the top center.

Expected on October 4 in stores, the Corsair K100 Air unfortunately does not yet have a known price.
