Turtle Beach has just launched its " Command Series " family of high-end keyboards and mice that come with a lot of niceties, in particular, touchscreens. The most interesting of the new peripherals is the Command Series MC7 , a flagship mouse featuring every spec you could imagine. There are also two stepped-down SKUs of the same design with fewer extras and lower prices, but let's go over the main course first.
The MC7 is reminiscent of pretty much every MMO or MOBA-focused mouse you've seen before, with a pretty classic ergonomic shape. The left side is flanked by a relatively huge 2.25-inch LCD touchscreen that can be customized to do all sorts of things. You can have macros on there, or quick toggles like muting/unmuting your mic, along with telemetry for your computer, such as the CPU temperature. It's also OBS and Streamlabs compatible out of the box with built-in controls.
The mouse itself features the company's 30,000 DPI "Owl-Eye" optical sensor, accompanied by optical switches on both clicks. The adaptive scroll wheel can switch between regular and free-flow scrolling, similar to the ones on Logitech mice, and it also registers left and right clicks when nudged either way. The MC7 is also tri-mode, featuring true 8K polling on the wireless connection with the 2.4 GHz dongle.

You'll love Corsair's Scimitar Elite SE wireless mouse — and it's just $79 Corsair's Scimitar RGB Elite gaming mouse hits an all-time low of $49 The other special feature here are the 1,000 mAh hotswap batteries. The mouse includes a charging base where you can juice up one of the two included cells, while the other one powers your mouse (for up to 15 hours with the screen disabled). There is a myriad of other programmable buttons scattered throughout the mouse, so you can really transform this into a gaming or productivity beast.
You can get all that goodness for a low price of just $160 when the MC7 launches on July 19 worldwide. If you don't want the fancy stuff but still like the shape and extra controls, the MC5 is a cheaper option at $120. It doesn't feature the touchscreen or hotswap batteries but retains the 8K Hz polling rate. The MC3 further cuts down to just $80 since it sheds the wireless connection but keeps the same sensor. Both mice actually feature more customizable buttons (up to 29 in total!) than the MC7.
Turtle Beach also launched new keyboards with the most exciting one being the KB7 , a low-profile TKL with a giant 4.3-inch touchscreen on the right, kind of like the Aula L99 or the Ajazz AKP815. It has hall-effect switches, similar 8K polling, and doubleshot PBT keycaps. It costs $200 and isn't wireless. The slightly cheaper KB5 goes for $150 and ditches hall-effect for standard mechanical switches, while swapping to a full-sized layout.
Lastly, there's also a the KP7 keypad that can work on its own or slot onto the sides of the KB7 keyboard and share a connection wirelessly. It features the same hall-effect switches and low-profile keycaps, along with a knob at the bottom corner. It costs $100 and launches May 21st with the rest of the keyboards. All the peripherals, including the lovely MC7 mouse, are available for pre-order on Turtle Beach's website right now.
