CORSAIR Introduces K70 CORE TKL Series: Refined Gaming Keyboards with Enhanced Switches

CORSAIR has unveiled its latest additions to the K70 CORE series, bringing tenkeyless design to their popular gaming keyboard line. I’ve reviewed many of their K70 lines before like the K70 RGB MK.2 LOW PROFILE, K70 RGB TKL, K70 PRO MINI WIRELESS, K70 RGB RAPIDFIRE with Cherry MX Speed, and K70 RGB PRO.

The new K70 CORE TKL and K70 CORE TKL WIRELESS offer gamers a compact yet powerful option, combining smooth typing experience with top-tier performance. And oh they look so beautiful!

At the heart of these keyboards are the improved CORSAIR MLX Red v2 switches. Pre-lubricated for a silky-smooth feel, these switches promise durability with up to 80 million clicks. The K70 CORE TKL model features two layers of premium sound dampening foam, reducing unwanted noise for a more refined typing experience.

For those who prefer a wireless setup, the K70 CORE TKL WIRELESS offers CORSAIR’s ultra-fast SLIPSTREAM WIRELESS technology. This provides wired-like reliability and speed without the clutter of cables. The wireless model boasts impressive battery life, lasting up to 890 hours via SLIPSTREAM WIRELESS or a staggering 2,400 hours over Bluetooth. When the battery runs low, users can simply switch to USB mode to recharge whilst gaming.

A standout feature of the K70 CORE TKL series is the new FlashTap system. This SOCD (Simultaneous Opposite Cardinal Direction) system offers modes that prioritise either the first or last key pressed, giving competitive gamers an edge in rapid movements and mirroring techniques.

Both keyboards come equipped with a Game Mode, activated by a single button press. This mode optimises settings for gameplay, locking easily mispressed keys and simplifying RGB lighting to reduce latency and visual distractions. A magnetic cushioned palm rest ensures comfort during extended gaming sessions.

Additional features include a multi-function tactile rotary dial for easy setting adjustments and a detachable USB Type-C cable for improved portability. These elements combine to create a keyboard that CORSAIR describes as ‘endgame’ for gamers seeking the ideal balance of performance and typing feel in a compact form factor.

The K70 CORE TKL and K70 CORE TKL WIRELESS are now available through CORSAIR’s website and authorised retailers. Both models come with a two-year warranty and access to CORSAIR’s customer service network.

The combination of high-performance switches, sound dampening, and wireless capabilities in a compact design is quite appealing. However, it’s worth noting that the true test of any gaming peripheral comes with extended use, so time will tell if these new models live up to the hype.

For gamers seeking a space-saving solution without compromising on features, the K70 CORE TKL series certainly warrants consideration. Whether you’re a competitive player looking to gain an edge or simply want a refined typing experience for both work and play, CORSAIR seems to have crafted these keyboards with versatility in mind.
