The keys stick out really far since theres no bezel around the edges of the. Lift it out of the housing, and you can flip it over to get the other finish. The multimedia keys and volume scroll wheel are just the icing on the cake. On one side, you’ll find this grippy textured surface. The rubber padding on the features two finishes. The wrist rest locks into place using two plastic clips, why Corsair hasn’t learnt about magnets yet is confusing, as I hate those stupid plastic clips, mostly because I keep breaking them haven’t broken these ones yet though, so I’ll let Corsair off this time.
