ASUS ROG Strix Scope II 96 Wireless Gaming Keyboard, Tri-Mode Connection, Dampening Foam & Switch-Dampening Pads, Hot-Swappable Pre-lubed ROG NX Storm Switches, PBT Keycaps, RGB-Black

I'm coming from many years of typing on a heavy tank-like Razer Black Widow with clickety green switches. When the keys went bonkers so that one letter hit produced 4 repeats of the same letter, I replaced the Razer with a Das Keyboard 6 Pro with clickety blue switches. I loved the Das Keyboard because it was big at 18 inches across (though not as heavy and tank-like as my old Razer). However, after 3 years the Das Keyboard showed signs of age with the keys getting too much shine, I decided to take the shiny Das Keyboard to work and for home use get the Asus Rog Strix with Snow Linear switches. There is an audible clicking sound but the medium pressure needed is excellent for long-term typing. I write a lot for my job. Also, the textured keys are of high quality--PBT doubleshot keycaps--so I hope they don't get worn out with that dreaded shine. The keyboard itself is 17 inches across, a full inch shorter than my 18-inch Das Keyboard. I prefer the larger size. A heavy, large keyboard gives me a commander at the Mothership feel at my computer. But at this price point, this is close enough. Final note: The magnetic wrist attachment isn't much of a pad. It is a slightly padded block, and I'm not sure if I'm going to stick with it or not. In any event, I could spend more than double on a new Razer Blackwidow V4, and I'm not sure that would benefit me for the money. I'm not a gamer. I'm a writer who likes to feel mechanical typing on a big keyboard tank. This is close enough and has an excellent build quality to earn a high recommendation.

Couldn't be happier with this keyboard! Right off the bat the Snow Switches were had the perfect tactile-to-sound ratio compared to the Browns I had with my last keyboard. The build quality exceeded my expectations, it feels solid and hefty and the metal plate open design had a nice feel + easy to clean. One of the reason I got it was for the scroll wheel, which I intended to use for volume control, but I didn't expect to use it as much as I do. The ability to swap around functions is quite useful. The only gripe I have with it is: To see whether Cap/Num Lock is active you have to look at this small lit up dashboard above the arrow keys. It's quite hard to see and half the time I end up just pressing the caps lock, typing to see and then pressing it again if it's incorrect. There is no option to make the actual keys light up/off like in every other RGB keyboard I had. You get used to it though. So still would absolutely recommend!

Un excelente teclado se siente muy bien los botones y los rgb muy bien con los tonos de colores

The best wireless keyboard on the market hands down! Exceptional quality and performance you get what you pay for for sure

I have been looking for a way to have clicky switches on a board that would allow me to hot swap any time I felt like I needed a change. After doing extensive research, I settled with this Strix Scope II 96 because it was the only board I could find from Asus with the RX Storm switches. Most variants, even on the new Strix Scope II X, only have the RX Snow switches, which are linear. I couldn't find another keeb with the RX Storm switches than this one. I have to say, though, I am extremely satisfied with the build quality and feel of each click. Each press of the key as I typed felt like I finally had more control over what key I was pressing with the satisfaction of a tactile click. I was pleased to be reminded that it is harder to accidently hit keys on a clicky switch. Linear switches often lead me to accidental keypresses, which bugged me. While I have not attempted one of my longer gaming sessions with this keyboard just yet, I have typed quite a bit, and the experience is very nice indeed. The weight of each key is heavy enough that I have to want to press the key, but not so heavy that I have to try too hard to type. I think my only complaint is Armoury Crate, Asus' software to customize the keyboard and it's lighting (which by the way, the lighting looks beautiful and bright. I'm a fan). AC is a little janky, and I had some weird issues trying to update the wireless capabilities and keyboard it self. After a while, though, I was able to finally update everything in the software and it seems that everything works fine now. AC uses Window's adaptive lighting features in Windows 11 to control the lighting effects on the keyboard. It was a little troublesome at first, but once I got it to work, I'm very satisfied with how easy it is to change up my keyboard's lighting and effects. While Armoury Crate is a little wonky, once I set up everything to my liking, the typing experience was blissful. 5/5
