BUILT TO FRAG
While its name may be a mouthful, the ASUS ROG Strix Scope RX TKL Wireless Deluxe has been designed with a clarity of purpose that few other gaming keyboards can match. It was made specifically for FPS players, with unique features such as an extra-wide Ctrl key to make crouching easier.
It's also a solid keyboard that offers just about everything you could want from a TKL, including three different connectivity options and durable PBT keycaps. The more compact tenkeyless form factor provides more room for your mouse as well, although you'd still be better served by a 60% keyboard.
Together with a plush magnetic leatherette wrist rest that snaps on without a hitch, its versatility and comfort also make it an excellent all-rounder.
There is support for Bluetooth, 2.4GHz wireless, and wired USB-C connections. A switch at the back of the keyboard lets you toggle between each of the three modes. There is also a dedicated niche next to it for storing the dongle, making sure you don’t lose it and transport slightly easier.
The 2.4GHz mode is rated for up to 76 hours of use on a single charge, and I didn’t notice any delays or missed keys. This mode, or the wired option, is preferred for gaming, since the latency with Bluetooth is noticeably higher.
The ROG logo in the top right doubles as a convenient battery life indicator, changing between green, blue, and red according to the battery level.
