Corsair Expands Peripheral Line With Keyboards And Mice For Everyday Gamers
Corsair has introduced the Skiff 100 and Skiff 100 Plus wired keyboards, alongside the wireless Harpoon v2 mouse. The new lineup targets mainstream gamers with a focus on durability, practical features, and competitive pricing.
As component prices continue to rise driven by the AI boom, manufacturers are increasingly focusing on affordable alternatives that do not compromise on essential quality. Corsair has responded with a new lineup of peripherals designed for everyday gamers: the Skiff 100, Skiff 100 Plus, and the wireless Harpoon v2. These are not flagship models pushing the limits of performance, but rather reliable tools built for daily use with practical features.
Skiff 100 and Skiff 100 Plus: Durability and Ergonomics
The new keyboards from Corsair feature a standard full-sized membrane layout. A key highlight for these models is their IP-53 rating, which provides protection against accidental spills—a practical benefit for users who value durability over extreme gaming specs. Media controls are conveniently located on the top right, featuring a rotary dial alongside volume buttons for easy music and video playback.
Ergonomics are well considered with adjustable feet to change the keyboard angle and detachable wrist rests included in the box. Both models feature 10 zones of RGB lighting, allowing users to customize their setup without needing complex software configurations.
The primary distinction between the two models lies in macro support. The base Skiff 100 lacks additional programmable keys, while the Skiff 100 Plus adds six G-Keys on the left side of the chassis. This makes the Plus version a more suitable choice for gamers who rely heavily on macros in shooters or strategy games.
Harpoon v2: Flexible Connectivity and Battery Life
The new wireless mouse, Harpoon v2, is equipped with a 26K Corsair Marksman sensor for high-precision tracking. The chassis includes six programmable buttons to expand functionality beyond standard navigation.
Battery life is a significant focus, with the device capable of lasting up to 140 hours on a single charge. Connectivity options are versatile, supporting wired USB-C, 2.4 GHz wireless, and Bluetooth connections. This flexibility allows users to switch between modes depending on whether they are using a desktop PC or a laptop.
Pricing and Availability
All three new products are available for purchase now. The Skiff 100 is priced at $59.99, while the feature-rich Skiff 100 Plus costs $69.99. The wireless Harpoon v2 mouse is also available for $69.99. These price points position the products as accessible solutions for the mass market, offering a solid entry point into Corsair's ecosystem without requiring a significant budget upgrade.
