When i test A mechanical keyboard with “Pro” in the name, I hope it would be the best, there is no compromise on its non-ex-variants. Razor has discovered: Blackwido V4 Pro is better than the original V4 in every way, And This proves that a gaming keyboard does not need to be employed to improve the hall effect switch.
Conversely, CORSAIR performed This hall effect switch automatically does not make the keyboard better, especially when there are trade-off to receive them. The Corsair K70 keyboard has three tastes: Core ($ 100), Core wireless ($ 150)And Pro TKL ($ 180)Pro has an advantage at the core because it is Some? The hall switchs the effect but leaves wireless connectivity. It plays an 8,000-hurts polling rate, comprehensive RGB and a magnetic wrist comfort. It also has some sacrifices that decrease it compared to other K70 models and its peers.
A story of two switches

For CORSAIR product page K70 pro tkl It is said that the keyboard uses “CORSAIR MGX V2 Switch”, which has no mention of standard mechanical switch in Tech Space Section or other places. In the scene of the keyboard exploded, some switches have pink stems instead of blue and are listed as “MLX Plasma Switch”.
The function row, escape keys, arrow keys and other navigation not each key of the main cluster like keys, are mechanical switches. Even on the packaging for the keyboard, it is presented only in small prints at the top of the box, refering to only the MGX hyperradrive switch with the rest. It is disappointing or not intentionally. When I buy a keyboard, I hope that all keys will have the same type of switch. If this is not the case, the company should be clear from it.
Thankfully, it does not feel bad to type the keyboard. The MGX V2 hyperdrive switch is crisp and responsible without any softness on the bottom of the keypress. When typing or even gradually pressing a switch, an achievement is possible for a magnetic hall effect switch’s contact-free design. (Read more about technology here.) It is probably better by double-rail design inside the switch, which was introduced with Kichron Q1 and since then used in many keyboards.

Hyperdrive switch shares the same design as the leker switch of the venting, which means that both can be swapped between the keyboards. However, both are designed using the first design of the hall effect switch and are not interchangeable with the new hall effect switch used by the kitchen (an issue that I discussed while reviewing the Q1 last year).
MLX mechanical switches are pleasant to use, although they feel heavier than the hall effect switch. They have a dark, full tone and a minor scratch that can also be felt while typing normally. This cherry looks like a “good” scratch of something like MX Black. The MLX switch feels slightly slow to bounce back after a keypress.
I felt that I was constantly thrown from a mixture of MGX hall effect and MLX mechanical switch, as the two felt differently. This is not to say that MLX switches are bad; I enjoy typing on the standard K70 core that only consists of mechanical switches. The issue is how two mixtures. Whenever I had to use both back-to-back switches, it was distracted.

K70 Pro TKL performs well for gaming. It contains incredibly accurate and responsible inputs, and even more, the weight of the MGX switch and the speed of the rebound is tuned without being so light for accountability because any casual misinformation causes the wrong-input.
