Corsair Gaming K70 PRO MINI Wireless, MX SPEED RGB Silver, USB/Bluetooth, DE

Mit der neuen K70 PRO Mini Wireless bringt Corsair die erste kabellose mechanische 60% Tastatur der Firmengeschichte auf den Markt. Und Corsair wäre ja nicht Corsair, wenn man bei der Gelegenheit nicht aus den Vollen schöpfen würde! PBT Keycaps, austauschbare Switches, eine Pollingrate von 8000Hz und viele andere Raffinessen sind an Bord. Was der Kampfzwerg kann, lest ihr im Test.

Die K70 Pro Mini Wireless ist eine der kleinsten mechanischen Tastaturen von Corsair - und doch steckt sie voller bemerkenswerter Ausstattungsmerkmale. Sie ist gleichzeitig die erste kabellose mechanische Corsair-Tastatur mit RGB-Beleuchtung und die erste Corsair-Tastatur mit Hot-Swap-Schaltern. Dadurch können im laufenden Betrieb unterschiedliche Schaltertypen eingesetzt werden. Als 60-%-Tastatur ist der Tastaturzwerg zudem besonders platzsparend.

Wenn Luxus bedeutet, Geld (200 Euro) in Platz und Freiheit verwandeln zu können, dann ist die Corsair K70 RGB Pro Mini ein richtig gutes Luxusprodukt. Trotzdem entsteht ein gewisses Premium-Defizit. Am Ende bietet die Tastatur vor allem ein bequemes Gaming-Ruhekissen.

The mechanical keyboard industry is crowded, Corsair obviously wanted to present something unique. They were successful, as the K70 Pro RGB Mini is a very enticing product. It's a 60% form-factor keyboard with Cherry MX Red keys, PBT keycaps, an 8.000 Hz polling rate, full NKRO, and 100% anti-ghosting. Next to that, it's now wireless with a proper range of at least 10m. Battery life seems great as well, an easy 5 hours of full-on gaming is dione without any issues. All in all an excellent option for gamers seeking for something a little different. The build quality is good, the keyboard is robust (and quite stable, thanks to the rubberized foot), iCUE works well (there has been a redesign since our last review), and it allows synchronization with other Corsair products as well as per-key illumination modification. MX Red switches perform admirably, which is not surprising, and they are also a safe bet (there likely will also be Speed and Silent available). One thing you need to realize though, is you need to get accustomed to the product repeatedly pressing the Fn key to reach the F-keys and media keys (I actually didn't use the latter at all because of it). Obviously, there are fewer keys here, and this issue has to be rectified in some way, so I'm not blaming the keyboard. This may be a non-issue for some, but I'm used to having dedicated keys for it, so you should consider for yourself if this will be a problem for you before purchasing this keyboard. It would also be beneficial to have folding feet. Although it is a niche product for me, I welcome Corsair's entry. Perhaps a model with low profile keys would make things even more enticing, but overall it's a great compact gaming keyboard that's now wireless as an option as well, loving that.
