Tesoro Offers New Excalibur RGB Backlit Mechanical Keyboard
High-end gaming peripheral brand Tesoro is adding a new fully backlit mechanical keyboard to their line dubbed the Excalibur RGB. Aside from expected gaming features such as Full N-Key Rollover (NKRO) over USB, macro keys and profile management, the Excalibur RGB offers four levels of LED backlighting with 16.8 million color options. The lack of Cherry MX mention in the product page and the fact that Corsair has full year monopoly with their exclusive contract on authentic Cherry MX RGB switches leads to the likelihood that the Excalibur RGB uses Kailh switches or similar Cherry MX clone. The Excalibur RGB will be available in North America with an MSRP of $119.99 in most major retailers. The full press release is available below for more information.
