SeekerCorsair K65 RGB MINI
The Corsair K65 RGB MINI is an outstanding gaming keyboard that feels very well-built and has remarkably low latency. It's one of Corsair's first keyboards advertised as having an 8000Hz polling rate, and we tested it at its highest polling rate according to our methodology. However, we don't test polling rates specifically. The Cherry MX Speed switches on the unit we tested have very short pre-travel and require very light force to actuate, resulting in a very responsive feel. It also has full RGB lighting, and all keys are macro-programmable. That said, the ergonomics are mediocre, as it doesn't have an included wrist rest or any adjustable incline settings.

The Corsair K65 RGB Mini is a well-performing highly customizable keyboard that should help raise awareness for the 60% form factor despite a few (mostly cosmetic) flaws.

The Corsair K65 RGB Mini has incredible key switches and an impressively small profile, but a few strange design decisions hamper this keyboard.
