AZiO KB577U Levetron MECH5 Gaming Keyboard

 

Nowadays, it seems that the term "gaming" is loosely associated with cheap, low quality, general-purpose peripherals. What then separates the notorious gaming-grade products from the rest? Most modern gaming keyboards feature mechanical keys in an...

Simple, but good looking design ; Fully mechanical modular numpad ; Allows multiple height adjustment ; Dual function macro keys reduces the number of needed profiles ; MX black keys great for gaming and typing Cons ; Very large ; Marks on keys will...

Very large ; Marks on keys will start to fade ; Wrist rest will start to get smooth and reflective

The MECH 5 performs well in both gaming and productivity environments. In my opinion, MX black switches offer just the right amount of resistance for a good gaming experience. In typing large documents I never found myself double-typing any keys as I...

Totally Satisfied

 

You should try to make the whole keyboard light up because I play in the dark and sometimes I wish the numbers would light up.

It is so easy to use and setting up the macro keys is an easy way to play SC2 or any other games that you need to multi-task. Having the buttons where you can turn off the windows key is a brilliant idea because I have pressed that button when I am in...

None that I can think of right now. :)

Died within the month

 

Looks awesome..... but don't let looks deceive you.

Really liked the keys while they worked

Keys started to stop working, first the backspace , then some of the letters ...... and the numpad never worked. Worst keyboard I have ever used

Great keyboard!

 

Make it all backlit and it would be absolutely mindblowing

Sturdy, visually appealing, lots of shortcut keys, lots of macro keys, railing system allows for more compact storage, volume control spin wheel, and backspace key is not small

Main part of the keyboard is not backlit and very large which could be a put off for some buyers but I like it, and wrist rest area is more for looks than comfort

Great Keyboard

 

I knew both of my cons before my purchase so I didn't knock any eggs off. Time will tell about longevity and durability.

Keys feel great, very solid feel. Semi modular; number pad can be used on right/left side or as a stand alone unit with provided USB cable. The 6 macro keys can slide left and right depending on preference, they can also be removed completely....

The macro key pad uses one of the USB ports on the keyboard so in reality it only has one extra port. Wish the keys were back lit

I like this keyboard

 

Even with the cons, this keyboard is great. If you are looking for a good looking keyboard with satisfying "clicky" key presses and something customizable i would recommend this one. 5

Satisfying key click, volume knob is useful, quick easy typing. Every key is re-programmable and the software is very easy to use with unlimited custom profiles. It's a pleasure to type on

Quite large, i had to ditch my keyboard tray and put it on top of my desk ; The 6 removable macro keys that slide and adjust are squishy and resistant, quite painful to use. I prefer just keeping them off. Perhaps someday i will use them but for now i...

Sick keyboard

 

The key set up was alittle hard to get used to and awkward at first but the more i use it the more i love it. Got it on sale for 79.99 with the Azio gm-533U mouse for free so it was a great deal! The two extra USB ports are handy seeing as though the...

Probably one of the best keyboards i have ever used ; looks epic ; cherry black makes it extremely sensitive, which i like ; the ability to put num.pad on either side or take it off is handy ; durable, good quality materials and overall a great product...

There on only a few minor "problems" that i have with this keyboard which mostly just happen to be personal preference but ; cherry black switches are pretty loud, could be a pro or con ; volume nob not as sensitive as i would like ; no previous,...

Love it!

 

This is the best keyboard I have ever had. I've had the logitec ones with the screens, I've had Cyborgs... This keyboard is outstanding. I will gladly buy another when this inevitably wears out from heavy use. The labeling on the keys are pretty bad....

Wonderful feeling and feedback ; Nice sound ; Sturdy construction ; Uses 2 USB ports so it can provide power to smaller USB devices from the keyboard

Letters are wearing off very quickly ; Certain keys sound different from one another, took a while to get used to ; Keys press a bit too soon when pushing down slowly

Consumer review by:

Great keyboard

 

Pricey, but if it lasts, worth it.

I like the MX black keys feel. Being able to put the numpad on the left means better access to my mouse in my particular setup. I also like the D-pad. I slid it all the way to the left so it just catches the ridges and rests on the D-pad. Works fine,...

None yet.Waiting to see if other 'accessories' like the D-pad show up

Consumer review by:

Great Keyboard, but lots of useless features.

 

Could use some backlighting!

Love the keys. VERY sensitive, great feel. Detachable numpad

Don't use the numpad, I've just tucked it under my desk,...same with the macro rail
