Corsair K95 RGB Keyboard
Review
100% mechanical switches, 18 G keys and 16.8M color per-key backlighting for unprecedented control. The K95 RGB mechanical gaming keyboard begins with the performance of the legendary Vengeance K95, and adds multicolor per-key backlighting for virtually unlimited customization. Every key is backed with a Cherry MX RGB key switch for precise actuation and superior feel. Full key rollover and anti-ghosting ensure accurate gameplay, and the 18 G-keys can hold up to 108 macros for faster gaming.
Multi color, per key backlighting for virtually unlimited customization. Every one of the keys can be assigned a unique backlighting color from a palette of 16.8 million. This gives you opportunities for key binding that you’ve never seen before in a mechanical keyboard.

Microsoft Universal Mobile Keyboard
Review
One keyboard. For your smartphone and tablet.
With the Universal Mobile Keyboard, getting stuff done while you're on the go has never been easier. Power through emails, put together a proposal, or instant message with a friend. It doesn't matter if you're on your tablet or your smartphone—the Universal Mobile Keyboard was designed to work with iPad, iPhone, Android devices and Windows tablets. Pair with up to 3 devices with different operating systems and easily switch between them.
The compact and light weight design of the Universal Mobile Keyboard was built with portability in mind with its protective cover and built-in stand that holds your tablet or smartphone. Just flip the cover open to power-up and make a Bluetooth connection, then set your device into the integrated stand—you'll be typing in seconds.
Shutting down is just as fast. Simply close the cover to turn off the keyboard—it's that easy. The rechargeable battery provides up to 6 months of usage on a single charge. But if you're ever low on power when you're heading out, don't worry—just do a 10 minute quick charge and you'll have plenty of power for a full day's work.
So leave the laptop behind—the Universal Mobile Keyboard lets you get real work done with just your tablet or smartphone.
