Verdict

Corsair K65 RGB Mini

8 / 10 Expert Rating

A compact, hot-swappable 60% board that brings Corsair's fastest polling tech down to LAN-party size.

Keychron K2 HE

8 / 10 Expert Rating

One of the only wireless Hall Effect boards on the market, and it doesn't meaningfully compromise the magnetic-switch feature set to get there.
