  • This is the Corsair K57 wireless gaming keyboard.

    The Corsair K57 is a really interesting keyboard. It's a comfortable membrane style keyboard with a special design to help with RGB light bleed.
    See the full K57 unboxing here - • Corsair K57 RGB wirele...
    Highlights though, are the connectivity options as it works with both Slipstream wireless, via a dongle or bluetooth and can obviously be used with USB too.
    Upto 175 hours of battery life (with the lighting off) should make for a blissful experience.
    It's also possible to change the RGB lighting easily on-the-fly, both the modes and the speed.
    Specs of this wireless gaming keyboard include:
    Game in the Fast Lane: Connect with hyper-fast, sub-1ms SLIPSTREAM WIRELESS, low-latency Bluetooth, or USB wired.​
    Vivid Per-Key RGB Backlighting: Light it up anywhere with CAPELLIX LEDs, shining brighter and consuming far less power than conventional RGB LEDs.​
    Six Dedicated Macro Keys: Fully programmable with complex macros and key remaps for an in-game advantage.​
    Detachable Palm Rest: Soft rubber palm rest reduces stress on your wrists so you can play longer in comfort.​
    Dedicated Volume and Multimedia Controls: For direct control over your audio without having to interrupt your game.​
    Extensive Battery Life: Spend more time gaming and less time charging with up to 175 hours of battery life (up to 35 with RGB lighting).​
    Powerful CORSAIR iCUE Software: Enables vivid dynamic RGB lighting control, sophisticated macro programming and full-system lighting synchronization across all iCUE-compatible CORSAIR devices.​
    Quiet and Responsive Keys: For comfortable typing during both work and play.​
    Anti-Ghosting with Selective Key Rollover: Your inputs always register in-game even with simultaneous key presses.​
    Windows Key Lock Mode: Ensures you’ll never accidentally interrupt your game at critical moments​

    Won this keyboard in a giveaway, pretty solid and I was very impressed as I normally go for just mechanical boards but these feels like one of the nicest membranes I have ever used.
    This review is fantastic and I'm amazed you don't have more subs! Your video quality is top notch and your voice is so smooth and calming, keep up the solid work!

    Perfect, picked it for £40 after watching this. I'm not into mechanical keyboards but love the feel and noise of this. It's great to match my keyboard colours up to the rest of my corsair setup. I use it wired mostly and love it.
    Thanks for the video.

    Nice review! I was just wondering your opinion on the keys being rubber dome. I am a gamer and generally go for mechanical switches but I really want a wireless gaming keyboard and this one would be my number one choice if it weren't for the switches. Do you think it would be to big of a difference from Cherry MX switches to these? Thanks!

      Do you mean in terms of sounds or responsiveness? It's accurate and comfortable. I've gone from the K95 to this and found it perfectly capable. Also check this for sound ua-cam.com/video/zY0oNXDriGk/v-deo.html

    Keyboard is great .....but unfortunately my dongle went out with in a few months. So I'm stuck using a wire unless this has Bluetooth.

    my corsair K57 wireless keyboard won't connect when PC restarts. I have to unplug the receiver and reconnect. any thoughts? the ESC power on reset only resets the memory and connection. It won't reset the firmware. any idea on how to reset the firmware on the keyboard and the receiver ? Thank you

      You should test it on another PC, if it works on a restart their then its your PC

    have you tried any other of the slipstream devices....I have this keyboard along with the the Dark Core mouse, and cant seem to get them to pair to a single slipstream usb dongle as advertised. Corsair has been non-existent via support, and the google-fu has yielded no results, just seeing if you had any ideas or thoughts

    • @TheProvokedPrawn

      I wasn't aware that was even a thing. I've just been plugging all the dongles in. Interesting

      Mabey if you get a longer wire, could work Bluetooth but I would do more research.
