The editors didn't like
A tinny ringingwhine sound can be heard from the keyboard if you tap certain keys right
Lowprofile design means no cable routing under the keyboard
While with the K70 RGB RAPIDFIRE sporting regular MX Speed switches we needed a bit of adjustment time due to the fast 1.2mm mechanical actuation distance and was sometimes difficult typing documents without making mistakes
With the K70 RGB MK.2 Low Prof
No Dedicated Macro Keys
Price (For Some)
Low Profile Keys Are Not For Everyone (Limited Feedback)
Expensive at MSRP
Although the sale price is attractive
Only one switch option for the SE version
Aftermarket keycap-set compatibility is still low
Not very low in profile
The low-profile version of the Cherry MX Speed switch is fairly redundant
And the stock keycaps can be better built
Terrible wrist rest
Questionable key feel
Clunky cable
Expensive
Minimal updates from previous iterations
K70 MK.2 Can get pricey
Strafe MK.2 limited switch types
Feels less ergonomic than a traditional desktop keyboard
Low Profile MX Red makes more drastic changes than the MX Silver we tested
Wrist rest feels cheap after Razer and Logitech's recent models
Software is comprehensive but as clunky as ever
Keyboard feet feel flimsy
Non-standard bottom row layout for keycap compatibility

The CORSAIR K70 RGB MK.2 Low Profile keyboard comes in two switch options and is $169.99 from the CORSAIR webshop. The current street price is ~$120 from their retail partners, including Amazon.com, for customers in the USA. Good price for the feature se...
Unless you were absolutely tied to the idea of low-profile keys, we'd probably opt for the big boy K70 over this. It's a fine keyboard with some smart features, but there's a lot not to like – and much of that is the fault of its switches...

The CORSAIR K70 RGB MK.2 SE Keyboard only comes in one switch option and costs $179.99, albeit with a current temporary sale price of $139.99 from the CORSAIR web shop, as well as other retailers, including Amazon.com for customers in the USA, as of the...
We will always recommend a great keyboard and the new Mk.2 Low Profile is no exception. Thanks go to Corsair here for letting us try this fairly priced performer out...
Excellent Build Quality, Cherry MX Speed Low Profile Mechanical Switches (Over 50 Million Actuations), Almost Inaudible, Full RGB Key Illumination (Custom Effects/Individual Key Color), USB 2.0 Pass Through, Detachable Wrist Rest, Up To 104 Macro Ke
No Dedicated Macro Keys, Price (For Some), Low Profile Keys Are Not For Everyone (Limited Feedback),
Just like the “regular” K70 RGB MK.2 Keyboard by CORSAIR the K70 RGB MK.2 Low Profile is a high-quality model with almost all the bells and whistles (the lack of dedicated macro keys being perhaps the only thing some gamers may be disappointed...

If you've been looking to recreate a laptop typing experience on a desktop, the K70 Low Profile is certainly a better choice than the bevy of rubber dome and scissor switch keyboards you'd have to choose from a few years back. I'm not sure whether Low Pro...
