ASUS ROG Azoth 75 Wireless DIY Custom Gaming Keyboard, OLED Display, Gasket-Mount, Three-Layer Dampening, Hot-Swappable Pre-lubed ROG NX Brown Switches & Keyboard Stabilizers, ABS Keycaps, RGB-Black

For the price, its worth it.

I was hesitant on spending $200 on a keyboard at first. I read reviews, watched YouTube unboxings, and did research. I ultimately came to the conclusion: I didn't need this keyboard...then I bought it on a whim anyways. I do not regret it. I am not a keyboard expert by any means, honestly most of the research I did just confused me. So I cannot attest to anything in regards to "Actuation Point" or "Switches". I don't have any knowledge to base it on. What I can say is the keyboard FEELS amazing. I purchased the variant with Brown Switches, and it truly feels great. Pressing a key is nice and punchy, and it has a nice "creamy" sound. It's very satisfying to listen to, but isn't picked up by a camera very well. The keycaps feel very strong and have a bit of a grain to them. I suppose for friction or grip? I don't know. The LED behind the keys have multiple lighting ranges for battery saving, as does the OLED screen. The connection speed using the dongle is almost instant. I barely have time to get my hand away from the slider after turning it on before it pairs to my computer. I've seen no noticeable latency, connection, or power loss issues. The first day I got it, I carried it around the house just to listen to the creamy clicks from the keys. It is addicting! This keyboard replaced my previous Razer Blackwidow v3, as I wanted a smaller keyboard. I thought the Blackwidow has a premium feel, but the Asus Azoth truly exceeded all my expectations. There is ONE downside: Armory Crate. I know I know, but I came in to it unbiased! I have never used armory crate prior and had no attachments to any of my other softwares. I saw all the reviews attacking Armory Crate, and figured I would decide for myself if the criticism was valid. I mean it's really bad. It isn't user friendly, it's filled with advertisements, and it just doesn't work half the time. I spent 2 hours setting up the app and getting all my preferences together, and then when I closed the app it just reset. So after doing it again I kept the screen up. I've come to the conclusion that if you dare to minimize the armory crate screen, it just wanders off into the void of your computer. Every time I minimize the app the RGB in the keyboard cuts out, and I have to reopen it to get it back up. I do have a software update for the keyboard I've been too lazy to do, which could fix this problem so who knows. Even without this issue just the usability and ease of access of armory crate or lack thereof, makes me hate it. I am looking into alternatives to armory crate now, hopefully there are some. The keyboards feel, battery, and connection abilities surpass my disposition for armory crate. So I still give it 5 stars. If you like armory crate? You'll love this keyboard. If you hate armory crate? You'll love this keyboard and continue to hate armory crate.

Love this thing so much. The first one I ordered had the red linear switches but I guess it must have fallen off the mail truck cause it never showed up. Anyway I ordered this one instead, with the tactile brown switches and I think I like them more. Every key stroke is solid and tactile. Great thock right out-a-da-box. Love the included switch puller and lube station. I bought some replacement keycaps but sent them back because the ones that come with the Azoth are awesome. I love the 3 connection modes. I can have it on wireless for my gaming rig, Bluetooth for my work PC or tablet and wired for charging. I didn't have any issues with armory crate as some reviewers have said. I did only go for the lite version and I don't have any other RGB so maybe that's why? It's it amazing? No! But it does what it needs to do. So far so good. It's a pricey piece of kit but I think it's well worth it!

*Updated Review* I decided to try out the white (silver) Azoth and the Extreme. My original comments remain for the white version. The only difference is it looks better than the black Azoth. The Azoth Extreme is...fine...I mean, nothing is wrong with it but I struggle to see where the extra $300 went. We've all seen the YT reviews investigating the "upgrades" and their worth, so I won't bore you. The only time the premium case can be appreciated is when you're physically holding the keyboard in your hands...so like, almost never. It doesn't look as good as the "white" Azoth. The screen is better, sure, it's also smaller in the Extreme. And I will never use the touchscreen because: fingerprints. Out of the box it sounds great. The stabilizers are top-notch. But, for $500 I should never need to get near this board with a screwdriver. "But it has 8k polling rate!" Okay, yes that's true but will you even notice the difference? Most likely not. Oh, and guess what, the plain base Azoth is getting updated firmware to also be able to boost to 8k polling (with purchase of polling rate booster). So, $300 for a metal case that you won't really see or feel, performance that will soon trickle down to cheaper versions, a screen that's mostly unnecessary (I only use it to monitor temps), and a hard/soft gimmick that doesn't really make much of a difference. Either Asus is really smart or I'm really dumb. Probably a bit of both. *Original Review* This keyboard is pretty dang good, and this is coming from an Asus hater. The last couple of weeks in my search for the perfect wireless gaming/work keyboard I've tried multiple Logitech G915s, A Razer Deathstalker V2 Pro, a Razer Deathstalker V2 Pro TKL, and tomorrow I'm having a Keycrhon K13 Max delivered. The 3 G915s Amazon shipped me kept coming in used even though I was buying new. Apparently that's an issue with them. I own a Razer laptop and Razer mouse so I decided to try the Deathstalker V2 Pro. The build quality is great and RGB is superior to any keyboard I've ever used. But it has had a few cases of connection issues. So, this morning I got a Razer Deathstalker V2 Pro TKL and I'm enjoying the smaller footprint. I haven't had any connection issues and still has the same pros of the full size version. A few hours ago I received the Azoth and was instantly surprised by how well it was built, for a non-custom custom. It's nice to type on and I love that I can configure the screen to show CPU/GPU temps. HOWEVER, I doubt I will be keeping it, unless the Razer TKL starts having connection issues and/or the Keycrhon isn't up to par. Reason 1, the RGB isn't per key, which is the only thing that feels cheap about the keyboard. I tried finding this out before purchasing but couldn't find a definitive answer one way or the other. If it had per key RGB I'd hold on to it. The other reason I'm not keeping it is because I think after trying so many low-profile keyboards they are my preference. No knock against Asus, as I knew it wasn't low-profile when I bought it - just wanted to try it and see how it felt. When they make a low-profile per key RGB version I'll be back! Tldr: this is an impressive 5 star keyboard even with it's cheap per-zone RGB.
