Pros:
Easy to use
It does the job as keyboard
Dedicated media controls
Lighting is great
Cons:
Corsair's iCue program was a bit confusing at first
Corsair needs to release a pudding keycap for their keyboards
Overall Review: Pro/Con: Keyboard is loud since this is a MX Blue, but I like it, but just know what switches you want
Pros:
Easy to use
Easy to setup with iCUE
Great audible feedback
Great tactile feedback
Cons: Little costly.
Overall Review: Overall it is a great keyboard. I liked it so much I bought two for both of my machines. First new keyboard I have bought in over 8 years. I am very picky when it comes to keyboards. This is also my first mechanial keyboards and I am very happy with it.
Pros:
Corsair
Triple Sails!
Cherry MX
Cherry MX Blues
Beautiful design
Full RGB backlight
Dedicated media controls
Dedicated profile selector on the keyboard
Ultra premium feel from the rigid aluminum deck to the velvety smooth key caps
No Fn key
Cons:
Stretched out font
No Linux drivers
Volume wheel has no indents (like a typical mouse wheel would)
Cherry MX Blue switches are not perfect (Though they are probably the best?)
Overall Review:
I love this keyboard as is, but if I could, I would change a few things.
I don't mind the bold font, but this font is stretched out left to right and it's takes some getting used to. I don't know why they would mess with something so important.
I don't like how far you have to release the key before it resets and gives you tactile feed back. This is an issue with the MX switches, possibly it is just the Blue switches.
I love the idea behind the volume wheel. Who ever came up with that was a genius, but I really wish it had indents so the volume changes would be a little more definitive.
I don't use Windows unless I have to. I use it for work and that's it. At this point, Proton is far enough along that if I can't play the game on Linux, I don't play the game. So I don't even have windows running on any of my computers anymore. I only use it because I have to for work. So I would really, really like it if they would support Linux.
I try not to knock companies and products for not supporting Linux. I get it, there are not that many of us, but I wouldn't have bought this keyboard if it wasn't for efforts of people like tatokis who maintains a github project called "ckb-next". Without that software to control the basic functions, the keyboard would practically be useless to me.

These key caps feel so good. I can't get over how nice they feel.
Overall Review: Dear im having issues with this model of crosair keyboard I'm just using for two weeks and out of the blue its start lagging and unusable not responsive.
Pros: Quality build, full RGB, Cherry switches
Cons: Some software bugs, mixed switch type
Overall Review: Great Corsair board as usual if you like iCUE, but for some reason my Tab key has a Silver switch for some reason? Not a big deal, but very strange and seems to show some negligence on the QC side.
Pros: Mechanical, customizable, stiff keys and stiffer keyboard. Sounds so satisfying to type on.
Cons: Expect it to be a loud keyboard and if you have coworkers, they may not like hearing it.
Overall Review: I am not a fan of mx browns, they feel too mushy. I also hate typing on linear switches so blues are the only choice; I just wish stores stocked them so I wouldn't have to wait for shipping.
Pros: Yes the Cherry Blues are super clicky, ol skool style. Led Lighting is very bright at the highest setting, but dimmable to your comfort level. Ultta responsive feedback as well
Cons:
Very loud clicky, but that is what Blues are for...Maybe one step down (noise wise) would be better, but I still like the tactile feel.
Seems difficult to see secondary function or symbol on keys when using a darker lighting effect. Also they are on the bottom of the key, not the top that my eyes have been looking at for 40 years. Have to really look hard when shifting of FN
Overall Review: Highly recommend keyboard to anyone, pick your own key style

Pros: It was a good keyboard until the top plate warped for no reason.
It is definitely loud, but the button press resistance is a lot less than I expected. Not bad, but I was expecting more feedback.
Cons: The aluminium top-plate buckled and warped near the volume control knob. However corsair support flat out is the worst I have seen. They shut down their phones and tickets take WEEKS for them to even respond.
Overall Review: It's a good keyboard, albeit really expensive.
Corsairs support is basically non-existant. I would stay away until they can actually HIRE employees for their support devision.
