We’re just over a week away from the big day, but the amazing Black Friday deals on tech are already here, including this Corsair mechanical gaming keyboard. The Corsair K70 Pro RGB is full-size with lots of options for customization, and thanks to this hefty discount, it’s down to one of its lowest ever prices. That’s all thanks to Scan, who have stuck a £89.99 sale price on the Corsair K70 Pro RGB for Black Friday.
We can’t check Scan’s past pricing, but we can compare it to Amazon, thanks to Camelcamelcamel. That data shows that the retailing behemoth hasn’t priced this wired gaming keyboard below £100 before, and with it priced much higher (or out of stock) elsewhere, you’ve got a serious bargain on your hands right here with this half-price discount.
Save 50% (£90) Corsair K70 Pro RGB Mechanical: was £179.99 now £89.99 at Scan The Corsair K70 Pro RGB is a full-size mechanical keyboard built for competitive gaming. A special tournament switch and 50 different profile settings allow you to fully customize your setup, while the PBT keycaps and Cherry MX switches ensure fast and responsive key presses, helped by the 8,000Hz polling rate.
As our Corsair K70 Pro RGB review explains, a high starting price on launch wasn’t enough to put us off recommending this board. Featuring a full set of keys, including the numpad, the K70 Pro RGB includes a magnetic wrist rest and per-key RGB lighting, which you can fully customize in the iCUE app.
The Corsair K70 Pro RGB also ships with double-shot PBT keycaps, which remain sturdy enough while also allowing for a decent level of RGB lighting to pass through. The Cherry MX Speed mechanical switches, combined with Corsair’s Axon technology, allow for a keyscan rate of 4,000Hz that Corsair claims can detect keystrokes up to four times faster than other gaming keyboards. Corsair’s board is equipped with a polling rate of 8,000Hz, which should ensure an ultra-low latency when you’re quickly tapping those keys.
It’s also an esports-ready keyboard, featuring 50 different onboard profiles for you to customize, depending on the game you’re playing, your style of play, or just the kind of RGB lighting you want to use. There's a special tournament switch you can take advantage of, too, which will allow you to quickly disable any special features to ensure fair play while you game. You can also customize macros quickly using a special hotkey.
This aluminium-constructed board is a serious option for both gaming and productivity, so if you’re looking for a tactile set of keys with plenty of features, then the Corsair K70 Pro RGB is a serious option. That £89.99 sale price makes it astonishingly good value, but we’d expect a board like this to sell out fast, so make sure to jump on it while you can before the deal runs out.
