Bought this last week for $149.99 from Amazon AU as it was cheaper than anywhere else. And now it's even cheaper… Still, I thought I'd share the love!

And probably quite scratchy until it's lubed.
Yeah, she did mention that.
Not sure why you were downvoted, I would get that one too
Gamesir is a good brand, not everyone knows it. I think that is why.
People who clicked on this post probably looking for red switches and you suggest them to get blue switches.
or got mixed up with "backlit blue led"
Have had this keyboard for awhile, just be aware for some reason the keycaps come off easily from the switch stem. A little flick and it’ll jump right off.
I had one for work when we were hot desking, every day I would take it out of a bag and put it back at the end of the day and I had no such issues. So YMMV.
I have 2 of these! Only reason being that you can hook them into this 'lapboard':
https://www.amazon.com.au/CORSAIR-Wireless-Gaming-Lapboard-K… (not at all claiming this link is a deal; just showing the product).Average keyboard (not bad, not amazing) but it's the single best #lapboard life option in my opinion.
That's actually why I bought the K63. In that in future if I wanted a couch setup that lapboard would be the best option.
Was pretty excited to get this and the lapboard. however, reading quite a few reviews of it constantly disconnecting, and the battery dying after a year or so. Can anyone comment?
Yep. Mum bought herself one just before lockdown #5. Battery died within a few days and it refused to turn on. She got a replacement between #5 and #6 and it too has now stopped responding randomly and not turning on at times. Stay the hell away!
I have been using it with lapboard for 2-3 years and it has been great. I have bluetooth, mouse and keyboard dongles plugged into extension cables and spaced 10cm from each other
Used two (keyboard + lapboard combos) for about 3 years now; had 1 for a year and liked it enough to buy a second.
Zero issues since I started using the little… USB plug thingies ("dongles!" - thanks pakadum) to connect wirelessly instead of Bluetooth. Pure Bluetooth was mostly fine but iffy if the PC I was connecting to was behind the TV..
The one I use for an hour or two each night gets charged once every fortnight and I can use it while doing so too, even if though I just charge it via a USB powerpoint. I don't use the keyboard backlighting much at all though.
I am using mine with my lapboard as I type this. Has been going strong for 1.5 - 2yrs now and no issues. Battery lasts an acceptable amount of time before recharge.
This hasn't dropped in price at all, I paid this much like 2 years ago.
