Corsair VANGUARD AIR Gaming Keyboard

The 99% layout offers a compact footprint that saves significant desk space compared to a full-sized keyboard, while still retaining almost all the keys you need, including the number pad and navigation cluster. It is designed to give you more room for mouse movement without sacrificing the functionality of a standard layout.

Yes. Thanks to its tri-mode connectivity, you can easily switch between devices using USB-C, Bluetooth, or the 2.4 GHz wireless connection. This makes it simple to toggle between your gaming PC, a laptop, or a tablet.

The keyboard features six dedicated programmable keys that integrate directly with Elgato Stream Deck software. You can assign these keys to trigger complex macros, control streaming tools, or launch applications, effectively turning your keyboard into a control center for your workflow.

Optical-mechanical switches use light sensors to register keypresses, which eliminates the physical delay found in traditional mechanical switches. This results in faster, more consistent inputs that are particularly beneficial for competitive gaming where reaction time matters.

Not particularly. The keyboard features a gasket-mounted design paired with five layers of sound-dampening material, which helps absorb the harsh clatter often associated with mechanical keyboards. It provides a more refined, muted sound profile that is suitable for both office environments and home setups.

For most everyday tasks, you likely won't notice a difference. However, in high-stakes competitive gaming, the 8,000Hz hyper-polling rate transmits input data to your computer much faster than standard keyboards, reducing input lag for a more instantaneous response.
