Corsair Gaming CH-9000235-WW PBT Double-Shot Keycaps Full 104/105-Keyset - Black

I can't complain about the quality of these keycaps - they are fantastic, solid and nice to the touch. I used them to replace the keycaps on my Corsair K95 RGB Platinum. Backlighting works nicely, although it is a little dimmer due to the thicker material used to make the keys, but this is a fair trade off for something that is quality. I find typing is much easier with the PBT Double-Shots, as the top of the key is slightly bigger than the ABS keycaps that were shipped as standard on the keyboard, and the slight textured feel is much better than the smooth finish the ABS keys had. The set comes with enough keycaps to fill a US, EU or UK layout as well as a handy guide as to what keys you need for each. There is also a keycap pull tool included as well. On the negative side - I would like to have had a choice of space bar, one that has the same texture as the rest of the keycaps as well as the default heavily textured one. The placement of the text on the "Enter" key for the EU and UK layout needs to be moved so that it sits over where the light is, rather than sit at the top of the key where it gets little light. Also, the included guide has a tiny error with the UK layout - the keycap to the left of the "1" needs to be replace with the alternative one supplied. I would also like to have seen the set include the macro "G" keys as well, after all, this is supposed to be a Corsair set. But these are minor gripes that I am sure Corsair will address in time. I’m not going to touch the argument of whether Corsair should include these type of keycaps as default for the premium keyboards; the provided ABS keycaps are decent enough and will last a good two-three of years before needing replacement. That’s the same for any mechanical keyboard. All that aside, these are well built solid keys, perfect for anyone who does a lot of typing or heavy gaming. They look and feel nice, and will enhance your keyboard experience.

I bought these for my Corsair K95 Platinum which I've had for about 4 years now. It has transformed it. The old keys were ABS plastic and they felt very greasy and cheap. These are much, much nicer. They feel more premium and the textured finish make them feel so much nicer to type with. Very happy with the purchase. I was considering buying a whole new keyboard, these have changed my mind.

As I live in Switzerland the only keyboards I can get are with a Swiss layout and as an x-pat this doesn't help for working. So I bought these key caps to replace the Swiss layout on my newly bought Logitech G513 GX Brown keyboard. First of all, let me say, I love thickness of these Corsair keycaps, they are thicker than the originals that come with the keyboard. I like the mat finish and they have a great feel to them. To my grips is that the it doesn't completely fit the Logitech layout, the spacebar is to long and I have had to settle with the original. The Enter keycap fits, however the colour light doesn't come through very well so I too have had to use the original keycap. But these two caps dont really look out of place. What looks out of place is the CAPS key, it fits on the GX switch. However, the keycap is too long and doesn't fit with a clean aesthetics to complete the look. I kind of like it, but it does bug me from time to time. For gaming and typing it makes it easier to find the key. If you use the original keycap it fits with the Corsair keys, but it too looks out of place as the font on the CAPS is different. So its a trade of if you want to use with the Logitech G512 or G513 keyboard with the original CAPS keycap for a clean look but out of place font. Or have matching font but out of pace CAPS key. I have attached the pictures to better help with my explanation. Overall, I love the keycaps and I'm to to have go them as an upgrade to the stock caps. Worth it, just beware for Logitech G512 or G513 owners.

Recently got the K70 Mk.2 Rapidfire and I'd forgotten how cheap the keycaps that came with these keyboards felt. Been using some pudding keycaps on my Strafe, but really wanted caps that could be used on every key on a Corsair keyboard so went for these in white. WOW they look amazing! Lighting effects are more vibrant since the lights bounces off the white keys and also they feel amazing to type/game on. No more of that cheap slippy keycap feel, these have a nice quality feel to them and are a night and day improvement. 100% recommend if you have a spare £40 burning a hole in your pocket.

Although these Keycaps are not cheap, soon as you install these in lieu of the original you realise just how much they feel better to type with. Comes with all the correct keys for selecter (not all) compatible Corsair Keyboard to suit UK layout and choice of black or white keys, excellent upgrade, easy to change over with tool supplied and a bit of time to swap over.

I both love and hate these keycaps. Let's get the negatives out of the way, so we can end on a positive. I really dislike the way they turn all the RGB into pastel shades. Without a doubt, I much prefer the RGB when they are on black keycaps. They are far more pure than when on white. The white keycaps really turn them into pastels. You can have a look at the videos, or the other photos on here. Don't get me wrong, the RGB still works great. But you have to really like pastels. Me, I'm not so keen on it, personally. Now, what is good, and what is making me keep these is the quality of them. These should have been standard from the get go. They really are better to type on. The texture on the keycaps is superb, and really stops your fingers slipping when you're really going for it. It's surprising how much of a difference that makes. Probably only applicable if you're a super fast touch typist. But, if you are, it's far superior than the shiny glossy keys that come with the device. But for me, the number 1 reason I'm keeping them is their legibility without any backlights at all. On the black keycaps, I had to have the lights on at all times to see the letters. Now, if it's daylight, you can read the letters without any lights on at all. I've included some pictures of what I mean. This is what the keyboard looks like without any lights, in a well lit room, but not in direct sunlight. As you can see, there is great contrast, and each key is perfectly legible. I don't always need RGB lighting. But in the past, I couldn't read the keycaps as well as I can now without it. So, I'm keeping them. I would have given these 3.5 if I could. The points taken off are for Corsair expecting me to buy these keycaps when they should have come standard (1 point) and that they make everything pastel (.5 points)

If you're not a keyboard enthusiast, then you may not care too much about the differences between ABS and PBT keycaps. You're better off Googling this for a more in-depth comparison, but to summarise: - ABS keycaps (The black ones in the pictures) are what usually comes with your standard keyboard, they have a shiny surface that highlights grease and oil marks from your fingers, they generally produce a higher pitch and somewhat crashier sound compared to PBT, and they're (very slightly) lighter than PBT. - PBT keycaps (The white ones in the pictures) do not have a smooth surface so this does not highlight grease and oil marks. They have thicker walls which produce a deeper, thockier sound, and (In my personal opinion) feel nicer to touch due to the rougher surface which allows for better grip. These particular PBT keycaps are DoubleShot, meaning that 2 different PBT plastics are used, 1 opaque for the walls/housing, and 1 translucent for the stem and legend to allow for light transfer from the key switch (if they have RGB). Things to bear in mind before purchasing: - The translucent stem of the PBT keycaps don't allow for as much light transfer as ABS (meaning PBT keycaps will slightly dim the lighting). - This keycap set is not for keyboards with a standard bottom row layout, They're very specific to the bottom row layout of Corsair keyboards. - Don't let the price put you off. This costs peanuts compared to some of the fancier keycap sets from the likes of GMK and such. - ISO modifiers and EU region-specific keys are included.

I have the K70 low profile with cherry speed switches and I needed a full new set of keys to change my keyboard from AZERTY to QWERTY after moving back home to the UK. I couldn't find a legitimate set of Corsair low profile replacements online so I contacted Corsair directly and they told me **twice** (because I double check before I buy) that these would fit my keyboard. But they don't. The connectors at the bottom of the space bar, enter key, and most other slightly larger keys are arranged in a different pattern all together to the low profile keys and so they simply won't fit no matter how much you try to smash them into your keyboard. As you can see in my picture, the low profile enter key is on the right. The beautifully sturdy but incompatible key that you may be interesting in buying is on the left. Corsair themselves will only replace 5 keys, so I have ended up having to buy a US-layout set from some seller in China and have 5 of the 6 keys which differ to the US layout sent to me directly from Corsair. The other key will always have the sticker of shame on it, indicating which key it actually is, plus reminding me of Corsair's wobbly customer service. Otherwise, they're decent, if slightly too expensive, keyboard keys.

cumpre oque promete

Estas teclas son lo mejor para reemplazar las que vienen de fábrica por parte de Corsair. Las compré para mi K70 y para mi Strafe MK2 Silent. Compatibles 100% con esos 2 modelos.

Bu hizmetten çok hayal kırıklığına uğradım, ürünün gelmesi için 2 haftadan fazla bekledim, İngiltere/AB/ABD Düzeni belirtildi ve bu klavyem için uyumluydu… CTRL tuşu STRG idi ve boşluk tuşu klavyeme de uymuyordu tuşların çoğu metin okunamıyor, çok kalitesiz

Le produit semble de qualité, l'emballage est très valorisant. Le mode de construction des touches est différent de celui de mon clavier K70 RGB Lux. Pour les touches communes à tous les claviers non localisés, c'est parfait. Par contre, si vous voulez remplacez une touche localisée AZERTY, ça ne sera pas possible avec le kit en tout cas. Car les accents, les caractères spéciaux ne se trouvent pas sur les mêmes touches selon les versions. A voir s'il existe une version AZERTY du kit.

Greetings keyboardphiles. Thought I would throw up (sounds messy) a quick review of the white Corsair PBT full 104/105 keycap set. These would be fitted to my Corsair K70 LUX RGB keyboard with Cherry Browns which I purchased a few weeks ago. Kudos and thanks to the Corsair fellow on the forums who took input from users as to whether they would like these to be made. Without him the PBT keys likely would not exist. TLDR, full review follows: Pros: -Exactly what a good set of key caps should feel like, build quality is excellent and sturdy. Time will tell how well these hold up, the race is on for cherry switch failure vs keycap wear. -Reasonably priced, some may say a little bit expensive, but you could spend a lot more for PBT and I feel happy with my purchase. Keep in mind these are niche and not likely to sell high volume, with likely a small markup. -The white on black with my K70 LUX RGB looks fantastic, like an IBM Model M bred with a stud Razer. It matches my Corsair M65 White/Black mouse perfectly. -The texture feels far nicer than the smooth stockers. -Back lighting is kept intact, though you may need to re-do some of your profiles since lighting looks different from the black keys and is not quite as pronounced. -A big plus for me is the back lighting for the numrow special characters, they are inline and back lighting is far more pronounced so my tiring eyes can see them. -Typing feels a little heavier and more solid with a good 'thump' sound rather than a 'clack'. -The white color with font is far easier to see in dark conditions with the back lighting off. I like to think that I can use these keys on another keyboard down the line without back lighting (with the exception of the bottom row, Grrr), or when the LED's on the K70 eventually start to fail. I can live without back lighting since I grew up with IBM keyboards, but it is nice when it works. Cons: -Back lighting on the numpad keys is uneven or not at all due to some writing out of range from the LED's -No really a con for me, but some may be turned off by the font (especially new abbreviations for some of the keys). I am quite fond of it though. -The extra ISO keys are a taunt and a waste, taunt because I love the big enter key but cannot use it on my USA keyboard :( Full review: The key caps on the stock K70 were the biggest weakness for me on an otherwise fantastic keyboard. They just felt cheap and unsatisfying to type on, and shortly after settling in with the K70 I began to seek other solutions for my little fingertip friends. I wanted PBT doubleshot, and unfortunately for me options were very limited due to Corsair choosing a non-standard bottom row layout, a decision no doubt instilled by a desire to soak in an Apple closed wall garden pond. I knew this going in and thought I may be able to live with the stock keycaps, but still Grrrrr Corsair! Also, the thought of the characters wearing off after a year or two was a horror just too awful to bear for me. Yes, I may be able to get replacements but, discontinued is a nasty word. As luck would have it, these released around the same time as I purchased the keyboard, yessss :) First impressions were very good. The keys arrived from Amazon yesterday, courtesy of one day shipping, in a full size retail box which was very sturdy and had full color graphics, along with descriptive text about the materials and capabilities (and how these will definitely possibly transform you into a massively attractive typing savant Batman-type person). Really, it is a nice box to just hold and stroke, I am cradling it right now! Ehm, anyway upon opening it up you are presented with two dense foam layers (which I call their nest from here out), with cutouts for each key to hug them warmly on their positively scary trip to your home with the postman. The key caps are organized exactly how they will be fitted to your keyboard so you will not have to painfully strain your memory (like remembering back to school typing lessons) or reference a picture when placing the little guys into their new home. The set comes with a key puller, but it is not quite as effective as the one that comes with the K70. I found the little nubs that snap onto the key are smaller and come loose from the key far too easily. This was not so much a problem with smaller keys, but made larger key removal difficult. Nonetheless I was too lazy to dig out the one that came with my K70 and made do. I started with a delicate plucking of one key from the NUM pad section as a trial run, and found the stock one came away from the stem a little too easily. The new PBT key slid down far more firmly, not too tight, not too loose - perfect! This firm fit continued as I replaced all the keys in that section, so far so good. I inspected some of the keys as I tore them from their snug little nest, and they are of extremely high build quality. My previous keyboard before my last was a Deck Legend which is one of the few mechanical keyboards that come with PBT key caps stock, and I can tell you these Corsair's are far nicer. The Decks caps eventually did start to shine after a few years, something PBT is not supposed to do. The Corsair PBT keys are of a rougher texture than the Deck, something I really like as my fingers feel like they have more traction and stick, like a good pair of running sneakers. As a result I feel confident these will take a lot longer to wear down. The transparent lettering is very well formed and feels completely flush with the surface. As a comparison I recently sampled some WASD key caps, and the characters were not as well formed as these. Carrying on, I removed all the remaining stock keys, lining them up in order on my desk so that I could place them into the nest for storage. I inserted the new PBT keys row by row, all fitting perfectly firm and straight. An independent review on another site mentioned some black residue on the keys, caused by the nest foam, but I did not experience this and so did not have to clean them. These keys have made a big difference already to my typing experience. I was lucky to get my K70 on sale, and with the additional cost of these keys I basically got the upgrade for the price of a normal retail keyboard. I think Corsair should include these on their higher end keyboards stock, or at least as an option when ordering for a discount. Assuming the LED's hold up, I should have this keyboard for a long time or at least as long as the two year warranty holds up. I also do not think the white color is a cause for concern with regards to dirt. Assuming you do not wallow in the mud when raining (I don't know, that may be your thing) like a hog in, well mud, then these should be fine with the occasional wipe down needed. Remember, old school keyboards did not have black keys and I do not remember needing a mop when using other peoples input devices. If this really continues to stress you out, buy the black ones when they come back in stock in a few weeks. In short, buy these if you have the extra cash, they complete the package. Can you tell I like them?
