Light Up Gaming Keyboard Review: Asus ROG Strix Flare II Animate | Ars Technica

[@SystemZ3RO]

Lot of people in the comments butt hurt over a keyboard review not realizing Ars Technica does more things besides video game development stories.

[@AlmightyUniden]

Looks to me like the channel doesn't have any clear focus or identity rather than a problem from the audience.

[@SystemZ3RO]

@@AlmightyUniden Ars Technica is more than just it's channel. Its like being mad at IGN doing film trailer breakdowns for a MCU film when people only know them for reviews.

I would expect keys with absolute 0 wobble at that price. How good are the stabelizers?

[@M3h3ndr3]

I am so used to buy keyboards for 100+ dollars i was totally shocked last time i checked that you can get a regular keyboard for like 15 dollars xD

[@lestat8656]

I ordered razer huntsman elite and opto mechanical keys are ridiculously mushy and soft, constant typos and accidental presses. Returned and ordered this with brown tactile, tomorrow 😍

Doesn't hot swappable mean that the switches can be swapped with the power on as in that's where the hot comes from?

[@Civilian08]

For hard drives and old ports, that's what it meant, but for mechanical keyboards it means that you can do it without soldering. I guess they took the term to mean more easy to be removed, like a hot swap hard drive bay. But they're also hot swappable in the traditional sense. Even if you could remove solder while the device was plugged in, I don't think anyone would refer to that as hot swappable.

@@Civilian08 interesting, thank you.

Loaded question

[@danmar007]

What a great review!

[@glencoco9159]

pretty cool I would just spill wine on it then throw it away.

[@nykteo]

liked the review.

[@Lithonion1]

Great review. Reminds me of the Logitech G19.

[@LostinGaming0]

I want this keyboard so bad

[@edwardota1991]

This looks awesome! 🤩😍

[@disko.kommando]

I don't need it *not looking!*

[@GreenAppelPie]

Well that’s pointless. Are you on your computer to watch LED animations or to actually use your computer?

I purchased this keyboard and love it 2 years about to hit 3 of owning it

[@BigGroupHug]

Numpad is on the wrong side

[@LucaFlip]

What a joke. A white led matrix in a keyboard in 2022... Not even macro keys for that price..

Turn notifications off. No point getting notified for technology reviews im not interested in. Thanks its been good for awhile

[@steejayk]

Just my thought.. But.. 0.125 ms or whole 1ms.. Will make absolutely no difference whatsoever.. Pure marketing...

[@NeilMoore]

Somebody please teach her how to pronounce Asus. It hurts every time I hear her say it.

[@braveheart0317]

Anything with ROG branding is a no no for me.

[@aggravatedbattery1164]

I'll stick with the corsair K series. I just don't see the point of the blinky lights (and I usually love blinky lights). Stick with the war stories series. That is stuff is killer. If I want a shill review of a product I'll just go to the company website. (sorry).

[@Activemagic_]

😂😂😂😂 get help

[@jonathanjones6657]

The smugness of foresight is almost conservative in its relativity.

[@M3h3ndr3]

You can totally see the people who made that video do it as a job not because they understand whats fun about a keyboard, i mean why would you talk through the section where you want to show of how good it sounds, like if you want to present audible sound then STFU And i dont want to be that typical hate comment but that voice over sounds like so bored this keyboard could be the most amazing thing in the world but after that presentation i almost lost my will to live wtf if you present a product get someone who is excited about it and dont read off a data sheet

[@pennygadget7328]

I don't know if I'll ever accept how the company insists its name be pronounced, especially when they say it's a shortened form of "Pegasus" (which, you know, isn't "peg-ay-soos") so surely the company's name is "a-sis" or even "uh-sis"? This is "Jiggawatts" all over again Anyway, this keyboard is dumb, and y'all sound just as bored with talking about it as we are hearing about it

[@deeRay7292]
