Corsair has acquired Drop, an online retailer known for its mechanical keyboards and keyboard accessories. Drop will continue to operate independently under the leadership of CEO Jef Holove. Corsair hopes to expand Drops brand globally through its supply chain and distribution network. Drop intends to continue its enthusiast-led product development approach and collaborate with community favorites. While Corsair also produces mechanical keyboards, they target a different market focusing on gaming performance rather than typing feel. The acquisition is similar to Corsair’s previous deals where the acquired company continues to operate independently

    It hurts hearing them referred to as a “mechanical keyboard specialist.” Running an Ultimate Hacking Keyboard 1.0 these days.

    DAE remember Massdrop? lol. Also wonder what this means for their audiophile line?

      That’s exactly why I finally pulled the trigger on the 6XX. It’s already on sale but even if it wasn’t it’s still over $100 cheaper than the reg 650’s.
