    Normal quality, you can use it.

    Asus software is unusable. It's just impossible. If you plan to somehow customize the keyboard through software - forget about it! This is the second time I've written to support on this keyboard. At first, right after the purchase, the software simply did not see the keyboard or saw it through time, but half of the functions did not work - it seemed to be fixed with an ate. The biggest problem is the ates themselves! Without ates, the program simply will not allow you to use it. It seems that…

    Pros
    • Looks very cool, convenient volume wheel and multimedia buttons, good assembly,
    Cons
    • Software that is IMPOSSIBLE to use, ringing metal plates, rattling stabilizers, curved gap stabilizer.

    A good product at a good price, I advise you to try it.

    A good keyboard with one glaring drawback - a metallic ringing when pressing the keys, which eliminates all the advantages of quiet switches.

    Pros
    • 1. Nice design. 2. Excellent lighting, including side table lighting. 3. Switches - Cherry MX Silent Red. On such switches, the choice of keyboards is small. It seemed to me that these are optimal switches.
    Cons
    • 1. Metallic ringing from pressing the keys. It spoils the overall impression of the product. Considering that this is not a budget product, the ringing could somehow be extinguished. 2. The wrist rest is not attached to the body. Just put it next to it and fix it with magnets. 3. Cost.

    I like everything, the quality is good, the price is acceptable.

    If the keyboard has RGB, then that RGB should be beautiful, interesting and functional. Otherwise, what for is it needed at all? Half the point of this keyboard is the backlighting (especially hinted at by the backlit sidebars that the competition doesn't have). And Asus lost this half somewhere. It's a shame, because Cherry MX Brown came to me, according to the materials the keyboard is good. But I had to return it, because. I'm not ready to wait for such a price and hope that Asus deigns to…

    Pros
    • - high-quality plastic with a very pleasant and non-staining coating. it is really difficult to smudge or stain the keyboard. - quite comfortable keycaps. - cherry mx brown switches. (if you choose the first mechanic and don't know what to take - take tactile brown) - multimedia control buttons and volume knob on the LEFT (no need to reach or take your hand off the mouse). - the material of the keycaps is pleasantly rough to the touch, only slightly inferior in tactile sensations to the keycaps of the Corsair K70 MK.2 keyboards (namely, their new Low Profile)
    Cons
    • - the main drawback: extremely dull backlight software. knows practically nothing. If you want something a little more interesting from the backlight than choosing a solid color or one of several modes - DO NOT TAKE this keyboard. It is impossible to do even an elementary thing on it - the included monochromatic backlight and some kind of reaction to pressing the keys - you OR have a monochromatic backlight . OR something else. In general, you cannot combine multiple layers of lighting and effects. After the software from Corsair, it was just a shock. I did not think that such a well-made keyboard from Asus for such a price could have such a failed software. - it seems that the form factor tends to be compact, but still quite bulky. The media buttons and the volume rocker take up too much space. - a dull palm rest. cheap piece of plastic. at least they made a nice cover.

    Terrible product, not satisfied with the purchase!

    I ordered at one of the well-known online stores, refused to work. both on my computer and on others. after a week of discussions with technical support and with service providers in his city (all refused to repair or do an examination), he opened it himself and found an unconnected connector to the keyboard board. great keyboard for my money (luckily I took it at a discount for 9500), I recommend it to everyone (no)

    Pros
    • Beautiful in appearance, convenient location of additional keys under the left hand (no need to release the mouse)
    Cons
    • assembly: gap gap and poor-quality internal assembly (see com.), not the best software with technical support, USB connector is not pass-through and does not work without a keyboard connector, backlighting of additional buttons is not controlled and has only one color.

    I am not disappointed, the quality is satisfying.

    Cool clave. But for every plus, I found a minus for myself. Pros: 1. Very quiet switches. Quieter than all membranes in my house. 2. Convenient hand support. 3. Very convenient wheel with the ability to turn off the sound by pressing. 4. Very comfortable and beautiful lighting. Has cons: 1. Switches are very wadded. Feeling as if syrup had been spilled on the clave. 2. Backlight under the arm is not attached to the clave, but placed under it. 3. The volume wheel is very loud and difficult to…

    After 10 years on membrane keyboards, there are still mixed feelings. I was madly afraid that after the low-profile keyboard I would cling to the keys with my fingers, it would be inconvenient for me to type with 10 fingers, but none of this happened. CherryRed switches are very close to the soft stroke of the membrane, typing accuracy is not affected, and in general this keyboard is like everyone else. You sit down for it, as if it were your own, and it's very cool. Yes, it’s heavy, but…

    Pros
    • Appearance Takes up little space I'm glad I was wrong. The ugly volume control roller is actually mega convenient and you don’t need to make much effort to reach it. The software and profile management on the keyboard is excellent, just look at the manual. The CherryRed has excellent travel and responsiveness if you've used a membrane keyboard before. I was very afraid of the transition after 10 years, but I did not regret it at all.
    Cons
    • Software often wants to ate and blocks functionality. It's really annoying. As if yes, the keyboard takes up two USB ports, but thanks to this, you can connect any device to it. Hard drive, splitter or even charge your device. I personally use for the Xbox controller dongle

    I have been using it for over a year. One fine day, strange glitches began in the form of constantly drop-down menus like when you press the left mouse button, as well as the arbitrary selection of files and other oddities, as if the computer lives its own life. In general, such strange behavior pissed me off, it interfered with work. At first, I sinned on the mouse, changed it, the mouse, it didn’t help, then I took out my old clave from the T-shirts and everything became normal, the glitches…

    Pros
    • At first there was delight, the first mechanics. Looks beautiful on the table, beautiful design, good ergonomics.
    Cons
    • - The palm rest is not attached, as a result, when moving the keyboard, it had to be held. - The lower part of the keyboard is not slotted, as a result, when moving around the table, a terrible noise is heard. The space bar is noisy when pressed, the sound is not like that of mechanics, but like that of a cheap membrane, with Enter and Shift the same

    A really necessary purchase, Im glad I found this product.

    Has some pros: Flexible backlight settings. Nice pressing. Lots of function buttons for setting up macros. Convenient (albeit partially useless for some) sound panel. Has cons: The arm rest is not really attached to anything, so when you lift the keyboard, it will remain on the table.

    Revainrating 3 out of 5

    I thought it would be better, but overall not bad.

    The keyboard, in principle, left a positive impression of the operation and I would rate it highly, if only it had not failed. A firmware ate arrived and after this ate the keyboard was no longer detected by the system. The service center issued an act for a refund. I bought a Corsair Gaming K70 RGB MK.2 Cherry MX Silent as a replacement. Maybe I was just unlucky with the copy, but the stabilizers in Corsair seemed worse to me, because. long keys make a lot of noise, especially the space bar…

    Pros
    • Comfortable, fairly quiet, beautiful clave with a convenient volume wheel. I liked the location of the wheel on the left side. Automatic switching of backlight profiles when launching some games.
    Cons
    • It would be better if the volume wheel was tighter. The keys could be quieter, but I think it's quieter than Chery MX Silent anyway. Broke within a month of purchase.

    Cool product, happy with the purchase, maybe Ill buy it again.

    In general, I am very pleased with the design and functionality, the shortcomings are insignificant Has some pros: design, additional multimedia features (Windows lock and backlight brightness adjustment, volume control) Illumination of the bottom on the sides. Possibility of synchronization in the rig ecosystem. Customization options for personal backlighting (set the color and mode separately for each key) Switches (switches) with gold contacts, which means they do not oxidize, and for…

    Poor quality, not suitable for use.

    Has pros: Volume control on the left, at least someone thought of that. Cons: The spacebar is poorly fixed and rings when pressed, some of the keys creak (it is the switches that creak). Cheap plastic stand.

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    Great value for the money, definitely recommended!

    Appearance is fantastic Has pros: The quality of the materials, the manufacturer's software, calmly synchronized with 6 more components from this manufacturer and 2 components from other manufacturers. Keyboard capabilities, you can configure a lot of things, I haven’t even figured out everything yet. Presence of multimedia keys. The volume of pressing the keys is minimal, I have never seen such mechanics. Ease of keystrokes. Everything exactly as expected. Has some cons: Despite a lot of…

    I like the product, the quality did not disappoint.

    This keyboard is already 5 mechanics with me. There were various switches from Cherry to Romer-g. Here they are Silent Cherry and, indeed, quiet, but there is one peculiarity - the actuation mechanism has a nasty sound of a rubbing spring, if you press the key slowly. Absolutely disgusting volume wheel, although it is in the right place. It cannot be muted normally. When pressed, it has no stroke cutoffs, so it breaks and the sound turns on again. Really high-quality illumination stands out, it

    Pros
    • 1. Quiet switches 2. Adjust the volume in the right place 3. Backlight 4. Manufacturing materials
    Cons
    • 1. Silent Cherry metallic ringing 2. MUTE execution 3. Cost

    Just super, the product is made wonderfully, very satisfied.

    I bought this keyboard on Cherry MX Red switches instead of James Donkey 619, which had fallen into disrepair (I had to suffer on black switches, because they brought the wrong product from alik, I originally wanted it on red ones). To say that I am satisfied is to say nothing. The keyboard is super, comfortable, pleasant to the touch, the response is normal. In general, the performance is very solid, it is immediately clear that a decent company. The height is adjustable. There is software…

    Pros
    • - Excellent quality plastic - Well assembled, the parts fit together, easy to disassemble - comfortable keys, pleasant to the touch - Backlight flexible - Thick connection wire, no bends and chafing at the point of connection to the body - Interesting design
    Cons
    • - a little expensive - the volume of the key is higher than desired (although this applies to all high-profile keyboards in general) -USB connection requires as many as two slots, why - it's not clear -there is no key puller in the kit, they could have put it :)

    There are disadvantages, but the product is usable.

    It's up to you, but Claudia is not worth your money in my opinion. Its price is 8500. Some pros: -Beautiful - Convenient location of the multimedia keys on the left, other manufacturers for some reason did not guess to do this - Braided cable with shape memory -USB port directly in the keyboard, you can connect a "whistle" from a wireless mouse -High-quality rubber feet, in order to move this clave from its place, you need to apply quite a lot of effort -It is possible to create your own…
