BY azrou achraf Corsair is back with a Vengeance, and I couldn't be happier. The Corsair Vengeance K95 ($149.99) replaces the  Corsair Vengeance K90  as the company's premier gaming  keyboard , and the mechanical keyboard keeps nearly everything I loved about the original and steps it up a notch with several welcome improvements, like programmable per-key backlighting, and a black-on-black color scheme that adds a killer look to an already excellent design. Design and Features The Vengeance K95 $161.42 at Amazon  features what may be the best keyboard design I've seen, with a machined aluminum base covered in keys that appear to hover over the black anodized aluminum deck. It's visually striking, but it also makes for completely unencumbered access to all of the keys and easier cleaning of dust and crumbs that would be lost inside a keyboard with the more common recessed keys. Attached to the front of the keyboard is a separate wrist rest, which is covered in ...

There's a reason you don't see many top-notch budget  gaming keyboards : In order to check the right boxes and hit the necessary price point, manufacturers must either sacrifice features for the typing experience or the typing experience for features. To get both, you typically have had to go with something high-end (and much more expensive), like our Editors' Choice, the  Corsair K95 RGB . But thanks to an innovative new switch, Razer gives you the best (or at least most of the best) of both the gaming and typing worlds in the Ornata Chroma, which costs just $99.99. It's our Editors' Choice for low-cost gaming keyboards. Features and Design What's Razer's secret with the Ornata Chroma? Switches that combine the, uh, key features of the predominant typing technologies in the consumer keyboard market. Razer calls the technology "Mecha-Membrane," and it's just what it sounds like: part its own proprietary mechanical switch, part silicone do...

Every PC gamer owns a mouse, but not every PC gamer owns the best gaming mouse for hipfiring in a shooter like Overwatch or clicking 100 times per minute in MOBAs like League of Legends. The best gaming mouse for you, like the Razer Deathadder or the Logitech G900 Chaos Spectrum, won't just fit your hand like the perfect tool. It'll have lower latency than a standard office mouse, come with better software for custom tweaking, support higher DPI (aka CPI, or counts per inch) settings, and use sensors that keep up with faster movements. If you play any games more intense than Solitaire, you should be doing it with a gaming mouse. But  which  gaming mouse? Razer's latest version of the Deathadder, the Deathadder Elite, features a new sensor that makes it the best version of the Deathadder yet. Razer didn't touch the mouse's perfect shape, making this iteration our new favorite gaming mouse. Personal preference matters, but not all mice are created equal. There ...

Apple The original iPhone 7 Plus review,  published in September 2016 and updated since then, follows. Phone cameras are getting really damn good. Samsung's Galaxy S7 , the  Google Pixel , and the  iPhone 7  all take photos that sometimes border on astonishing. In that sense, the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus aren't as distinctive as  phones  anymore. They're excellently made, supe...
