i don't know if it's worth the price, but this does seem like a very premium keyboard compared to your average gaming keyboard. I think the only downsides are the keycaps, the price, no RT and needing to use armoury crate.
While the ROG Azoth Extreme is definitely a solid and feature-packed gaming keyboard, the price tag is definitely hard to swallow especially for the mainstream market. If the price goes down to less than 350USD or below Php 20k would you consider it then? 🤔
Yep I almost bought the clicky snows but went back to the aisle and got the linear! If the Extreme had a wider lcd screen I would be more interested for now the regular will have to do
I have the rog azoth 75 og. It's legit good. Even the switches are good enough where I'm not in a rush to upgrade. I'll say though that 500usd will make me look at other keyboards from the true experts, keychron, nuphy, zoom, etc. They made the keyboard look a lot more fancy and put carbon fiber on it to justify the price increase, but that's not goint to make me buy it for 500, not even 400. Maybe for 200-250 I'd be interested. I'd rather have a custom keyboard done for that price or actually, I'd rather have multiple keyboards. I'm good with the rog azoth og. I'm also getting the keychron q1 max as my second bae though. Lemme ask Asus this though. Why didn't you also make a special refined tactile switch? No love for tactile? I'm focused on the typing experience and how much quicker it can make me, tactiles are perfect for that.
lol what the heck does ASUS think they’re selling? Gold? - It’s not even comparable to a wooting which is half the price. Awesome review btw. Good work.
They need to reduce the price to make it viable to consumers. I’m pretty sure they will also jump into the hall effect and rapid trigger bandwagon soon but it definitely could help the case for the Azoth Extreme if it already has those features considering the current price. Maybe they are targeting this model to a completely different audience but still, it won’t hurt to be safe by having those modern features on their “flagship” keyboard
I said it and i will say it again your HD6 looks sick on your setup, i ordered the HD3 and the HD4 just to see how they blend on my Magnus pro desk if not definitely i will go BIG HD6 👌, keep up the good work man
Thank you so much my kind sir, In my opinion, the HD3 is a good bang for the buck speakers. If I didn't had the opportunity to get the HD6, I'm still going to be perfectly happy with my HD3. My HD3 is now on our bedroom paired with our LG C2 OLED TV and it's a match made in heaven!
I have an important question! Is it possible to rebind the screenshot key from FN + P to the function knob? Because I want to take a simple screenshot with just a little button press, as on a usual keyboard, by usually pressing Win + Print Screen. If it works on this one, by pressing/turning the Win + function knob to save a screenshot to my screenshots' folder or just press/turn the function knob to save a screenshot to the clipboard, I think it should also work on the Strix Scope II 96 Wireless. I would appreciate it if you could take a quick look at it in the software, because I have found no one doing or even trying this after days of searching. Or it's just not possible.
I'll give it to Asus for how much more they added on top of the Azoth. But 500$? Sheesh. The MSRP on the original Azoth was hard to swallow at 250$. The keyboard space has been offering some crazy value stuff for much less than what Asus' trying to sell. I own the regular Azoth but only because it went on sale a couple of months ago for 130-140$. The idea of paying twice/thrice as more is sheesh..
Do you ever get to have the S8 sub to pair it with your HD6? Im still on market for a good sub and not sure which the Klipsch 120SW also SVS SB 1000 pro is my top choice for now.
I would have auditioned those HD6's but Audioengine didn't incl a headphone jack on the front (or the back either !) like the smaller HD3's so was an absolute non starter for me. This means one would have to use ones own external DAC to have volume control with cans rather than using AE's built in one (using the Asahi Kasei Microdevices AK4396 chip). Which rather renders it pointless and dim and a huge omission on their part. I used the money saved to get a S8 sub tho which is rather a game changer with the teenie HD3's and really is like night and day improvement overall.
Yes I have the S8 paired with my HD6 and in my opinion, a subwoofer is a must for the HD6. The HD3 on the other hand is good enough without the S8 but also could definitely benefit from it. I have a dedicated video for that comparison here: ua-cam.com/video/-pMIMKXwECU/v-deo.html

I wish Logitech would come out with a new G19 which has more features and a bigger screen when released years ago.

Are the letters/numbers/symbols easier to see with the keycap RGB off than in the original version?
Is the screen scratch resistant tempered glass or plastic?

Awesome review btw. Good work.
They need to reduce the price to make it viable to consumers. I’m pretty sure they will also jump into the hall effect and rapid trigger bandwagon soon but it definitely could help the case for the Azoth Extreme if it already has those features considering the current price.

Making the useless screen colorful is a huge improvement.
The BEST ROG Keyboard but it's too... PRICEY for sure LOL
Very informative ...subbed
Thank you so much, I really appreciate that
Nice vid mate
Thank you!

lmao 500 dollars. what is Asus smoking. not even a hall effect for that price wtf
Does it have rapid trigger?
No hall effect switches is insane for a gaming keyboard at this price point
May bagi nanaman akong pangarap.
Btw ang galing ng review. Deserve million subs.

Adding carbon fiber makes it $500, which I think is bad engineering. You don't need its strength on a keyboard.
$500??????????? I'll just build a custom lol

Yes Paolo, the lack of hadphone jack in front of the HD6 is a bummer. Also, I hate that infinity volume wheel!
Does it support normal cherry switches? I couldn't understand from the video.
Yes it does, sorry for my english. I uploaded proper subtitles; you can turn on CC if you want. Thank you!
Pa shoutout po from AU! ❤️
Shout out sayo bro! Ingat ka diyan and pasalubong na Kangaroo patty
no HE? no RT? pass. Wooting 80 HE is just around the corner.
Kuya may rog Strix scar g18 na po dito sa pinas sana ma notice mo po 😢😢 new subscriber po ako ninyo ❤❤
... really i just bought rog azoth... im so regreting my life.
You can get a better keyboard for 150 USD, i'd rather pay extra for Wooting keyboard for 10k php
You mean for another plastic keyboard 😂
@@reijhinru1474 You can still get an alu case keyb under 150 usd, still cheaper then the previous ROG Azoth which is plastic 🤣
500$ is a good deal! You get a free laptop too, right???!
Where to buy?
As of the moment it’s not yet available but I’ll keep the description updated
LCD os easy scratch 😂
what speakers do you use :D
Those are active Audioengine HD6's in white
Yes, I'm using the audioengine HD6. Probably my "End Game" speakers
500$ wtf hahaha. anyways ano itsura ng name plate pag retail version na ng keyboard
Same lang halos sir, bale yung ROG lang nasa gitna
@@TechBroll thanks.
Knowing how garbage the previous version is, this is a hard pass even if they make it 200 usd lol
I still love n rock the OG azoth, that doesn’t mean the latest always greatest 🎸🤘🏽
maganda pa jn yung AULA ehhh mas mura pa!!!
500 dolar + tax no tnx asus
For people who are into custom mechanical keyboards, this is hot garbage. AHAHAHA
nah azoth is expensive enough
This keyboard is real zoomer cringe
Give me a version without that stupid OLED screen, and HE switches and i will buy it for 300.
PASS!! HAHA.
