Cougar today announced a refresh of its popular Attack X3 RGB mechanical gaming keyboard. The new 2018 Edition of the keyboard comes with an ergonomic palm-rest that's detachable. The palm rest has slightly raised rubberized surfaces towards the edges, where its designers thought you'd typically rest your palm, that is, until you find yourself typing quite a bit. In that case, your right palm will find itself in a gap between the two rubberized edges. Apart from the palm rest, the Attack X3 RGB 2018 Edition is identical to its 2016 predecessor.

"With LIGHTSYNC technology we are able to add real intelligence to what RGB lighting can do - synchronizing audio and RGB lighting to on-screen gameplay.

ASUS is looking to introduce another keyboard solution to the market in the form of the Strix Flare RGB keyboard. The Strix Flare doubles down on the RGB goodness that has consumers diving for such products. It uses Cherry MX RGB switches (RGB Silver, Silent RGB Red, Silent RGB Black, Silent RGB Nature White); there's a white diffuser platform under the switches to more homogeneously spread the lighting effects; and the left and right sides of the keyboard sport LEDs that glow on users' desks. The clear plastic on the top right of the keyboard also basks in RGB goodness, and there are a couple of ASUS-branded stickers, and a single user-customizable one, that users can install there to achieve a desired RGB logo effect. All of this RGB goodness can be calibrated and individually controlled via ASUS' proprietary AURA Sync app.

Lighting and macros are adjustable and selectable on the fly; there are various media-dedicated controls on the left side of the keyboard, and there's profile configuration with ASUS' Armoury utility. The Strix Flare sports a detachable palm rest, USB pass-through, and is a wired affair that weighs in at 1,2 Kg with the cable, and should be available soon.

Corsair has launched a revised version of their K63 tenkeyless keyboard. The revised version brings with it support for wireless connection protocols (Bluetooth 4.2 (2.4 GHz and 128-bit AES wireless encryption), which means that users will now have one less wire running from their desk to their PC. In another bid to differentiate this revision from the wired one is that the per-key red LED lighting in the wired K63 has been replaced with blue LED illumination for this wireless version - another way for consumers not to be confused and know exactly which keyboard to buy. Corsair is also giving users who prefer it the option to go wired via a USB connection, however.

Other features include a 1,000 Hz poll rate, N key rollover and 100% anti-ghosting capabilities. There's also support for Corsair's "Utility Engine". The 91 keys (with the same Cherry MX Red switches as found on the wired K63) fit into a W 366 mm x 173 mm x H 41 mm frame, and the unit weighs about 1.09 kg. This model is compatible with the Lapdog solution, if that's something you care about, and should be available around the $109 mark.

At its CES presentation, Tesoro also showed off its new Gram TKL keyboard. This is a tenkeyless (TKL) variant of the original Gram Spectrum (and not the newer Gram SE Spectrum). A tenkeyless keyboard lacks the NUM pad. The lack of the NUM pad shaves a good 12 cm from its width. Like the Gram Spectrum, it features Tesoro's in-house Agile mechanical switches (in red or white flavors), with 3.5 mm key travel, and 1.5 mm actuation, and 16.7 million-color RGB LED illumination. The rest of its feature-set is identical to that of the Gram Spectrum. Tesoro plans to launch the Gram TKL some time in the first half of 2018, but has not decided upon its pricing, yet. There's also the possibility of a white (body color) variant.

Tesoro had a few tricks up its sleeve at CES, and we spotted its latest gaming gear beginning with the now finalized Tesoro Gram XS keyboard. This keyboard retains the essential design of the Gram SPECTRUM, but is compacted in every dimension. Its frame is as thin as possible, the keycaps are flattened (chiclet-type), the overall body is thin (at just 14 mm), and yet it offers the linear or tactile/clicky feedback of conventional mechanical keyboards. The magic happens thanks to the all new TTC low profile mechanical switches that Tesoro say they were involved in the development of. Alongside the new hardware design comes also a revamped software driver featuring a clean aesthetic with user experience improvements throughout. Slated for late-January availability, the Tesoro Gram XS will be priced at USD $149.99.
