Looking for Cherry Blue, Full size, Backlit with macros
« on: Tue, 20 January 2015, 21:39:21 »
I'm seeking keyboards with these features:
  • Cherry MX Blue switches (or equivalent)
  • Full size
  • Backlit
  • At least 5 dedicated macros (eg M1, M2, M3... on the Razer BlackWidow)
  • Current model (not like CM Storm Trigger)

These satisfy those criteria:
  • Razer BlackWidow Ultimate and Chroma
  • CM Storm Trigger-Z and Mech

What other keyboards have all those features?

Not sure if the Shine 4 has marcros, but if it does than that's a good call. Probably better built than the CM or Razer boards.

It has only 4 macros and they're non-customisable (I think) but thanks

Did you try to look for a K95 RGB with blues? or you're not interested?

Oh that's weird
I initially thought you were joking about your keyboard being a custom K95 RGB cos I've never heard of it.
Then i looked up Corsair's website - turns out filtering keyboards by Cherry Blues didn't catch the K95 RGB.
Thanks!

My understanding is that Corsair stopped making Blue K95.

Why they would have problems other switches do not is a mystery to me.

Yeah I just heard about this.
Shame, I really value macro keys and clicky switches and this was by far the best keyboard in terms of those things.
It's funny to me that apparently blues aren't demanded enough but they seem really popular in the forums
