What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
Rapid volume controls (with scroll function) makes muting area chat flawlessly fast. The programmable rgb effects are mindbogglingly vast and varied.
The keys are like a steinway and are beautifully stroked. They are very light to press, but are satisfying.
The corsair has the fattest, most robust keyboard cable i've ever encountered. The finish on the keyboard also feels really premium, with that aluminium finish. It is unquestionably the best keyboard i have ever used.
The k100 air is absolutely something to brag about. It feels like it's gonna last and i have confidence that it will. This keyboard is beyond amazing when it is all lit up. It's the best keyboard i've ever played with, na na na.
Rgb lighting is nice, i'm a fan of the rainbow wave preset myself. It syncs nicely with the corsair scimitar mouse. Lighting and macros can all be selected without installing any bloatware.
Cons
It is completely ok to sell refurbished items, even for similar/same prize as new, but this must be always advertised. Amazon accepted exchanging the item free of charge, however this kind of behaviour is not admissible.
Case ping is very evident when typing. One of the lights is stuck on a single colour even once turning off all lighting and messing with the keyboard settings. Just buy a logitech g915 for gaming or a logi mx mechanical for work.

Price
A bit pricey, but that being said it's the best keyboard i've ever owned
Yes its too expensive but imho it is the best keyboard you can buy
For this price though, this is a real issue.
Worth it if the price doesn't put you off.

(amazon customer service rep took my mobile and promised me a call back.
I decided to try my luck with corsair and i raised rma request.
Competitiveness
Don't get this, other brands have better stuff for much cheaper.
I have tried many other top brand gaming keyboards both chiclet and normal and none come close in typing performance and of thi... Read More
Overall i would probably recommend a cheaper keyboard as most features and similar keys can be found on cheaper keyboards.
However, one option razer doesn't have is to have both additional macro keys and media keys - not sure why as both logitech and... Read More

The corsair k100 air is not for everybody its a very niche product for those who enjoy laptop keycaps

From the photos provided you will see its size in comparison to the g815 and g915 along with the asus azoth 75 its smaller than the g815 and supports any key macro unlike the g815
