Roccat Isku and Kone+ Review

The Isku and Kone+ are such a great combo that you will lose key features if you pair either device with another manufacturer's alternative.

Roccat Isku Illuminated Gaming Keyboard

The Roccat Isku is a solid gaming keyboard with good overall functionality, but a few details about it might not appeal to everyone.

Offers up to 25 programmable macros. Easy on-the-fly macro recording. Roccat Talk lets you pair with another device for enhanced functionality.

Integrated wrist rest makes for a giant footprint. Key labels can be difficult to read in low light. Backlight color not adjustable.
