CORSAIR, a world leader in PC gaming peripherals and enthusiast components, today launched the new CORSAIR K57 RGB Wireless Gaming Keyboard. The first gaming keyboard from CORSAIR to include the breakthrough technologies CAPELLIX RGB LEDs and SLIPSTREAM WIRELESS, the K57 RGB Wireless boasts both incredibly bright, stunning per-key RGB LED lighting and the convenience of a hyper-fast, ultra-stable wireless connection.

The K57 RGB Wireless is lit up by vivid per-key dynamic RGB backlighting, without sacrificing performance thanks to its CAPELLIX RGB LEDs. First debuted in CORSAIR DOMINATOR PLATINUM RGB DDR4 Memory, CAPELLIX LEDs shine up to 60% brighter and are up to 60% more efficient than conventional LEDs, giving the K57 RGB Wireless a long-lasting battery life of up to 35 hours on a single charge even with RGB lighting enabled, so you can spend more time enjoying the light show and less time charging.
 
This wireless keyboard looks absolutely awesome. I'm curious about pricing which was not yet announced.

    Not just more bright but more power efficient iirc from their past videos at CES, on top of better wireless.  

    I'm currently using their new RAM sticks with that CAPELLIX RGB LEDs and it looks great.

    They apparently are using newer wireless tech with very low latency.  I think 1ms iirc.

    It does have some nice features like the ability to connect to Bluetooth devices but at 35 hours I think people would be turning off RGB to get about a week between charges as a day and a half would get old very quickly. Also nobody wants to lose the keyboard while gaming because it ran out of power.

    Use an Associates Code & SAVE 5% - 10% on your purchase. Just click on the associates banner to save, or enter the associates code at checkout on your next purchase. If you choose to use my code I want to personally say "Thank You" for using it.

    Only 35 hours of battery life with the RBG on and only 175 hours if you are using the faster wireless connection but no lighting. I suppose this would be great for LAN competitions, but not so much as a daily driver.

    wireless  ?    "Charges via USB to computer"
     
    they need a inductive charger ...so charging is also wireless

    I disable RGB on Logitech G900. Logo never light. Only DPI Sensor.
    I'm not idiot to charge 5 times more often because RGB.
     
    New Logitech G915 Wireless keyboard work 12 days with RGB and more then 100 days without RGB.

    I've been using the wireless K63 for over a year now, and I haven't noticed any lag/response time issues at all.
