In early August 2026, Sharkoon released the PureWriter W100, a flat 104-key mechanical keyboard featuring Huano linear silent switches (≈40g actuation, 50M keystroke rating). The device offers dual-mode connectivity via a 2.4 GHz nano receiver and USB-C, a 2,000 mAh battery providing up to 160 hours of operation, a 1,000 Hz polling rate, full N-Key rollover, an aluminium-top chassis, RGB lighting, and a volume wheel, priced at €59.90.

During the same period, Corsair introduced several budget-focused peripherals, including the Skiff 100 full-size membrane keyboard (€59.99) and the Skiff 100 Plus with six macro-keys (€69.99). Both Skiff models feature 10-zone RGB, a rotary media dial, a detachable wrist-rest, IP53 dust- and splash-resistance, and a 1,000 Hz report rate. Corsair also launched the Harpoon v2 Wireless ergonomic mouse for €69.99, which includes a 26,000 DPI Marksman sensor, 650 IPS tracking, 50 G acceleration, and both 2.4 GHz Slipstream and Bluetooth connectivity.

By late August, Corsair expanded its keyboard lineup to include the high-end Clipper Pro Mini 60. This compact 60% format keyboard is designed for competitive play, featuring Hall Effect MGX Hyperdrive Core switches, 8,000 Hz hyper-polling, and advanced technologies such as Rapid Trigger, FlashTap SOCD, Multi Action, Tap Lock, and Smart Tap. It also carries an IP57 rating for dust and water resistance.
