ROG Claymore

“This is also a great-looking piece of kit. The ‘Mayan’ pattern on the top plate and the backlit ROG logo add just the right amount of flaire.”

Enthusiast Grade

“I like this because it is smaller than the Spatha but you have also got the funky lights at the bottom… I would give that the Gamer’s choice.”

“The Claymore’s biggest feature is a detachable numpad. Leave it on for your daily Excel spreadsheet tasks, but once you start gaming, pull it off and place it to one side, enabling you some nice wide arcs for your low DPI skill shot settings and the better ergonomics that come with it.”

Innovation

“The ASUS ROG CLAYMORE is unlike any other mechanical gaming keyboard I have ever seen. From the detachable Numpad to the AURA LEDs, it offers amazing looks while also remaining top of the class in performance.”

Extreme

“If we disregard the price, the Asus ROG Claymore has all the makings to be a game changer. It has all the attraction of a TKL board but all the functionality of a full-size keyboard with an additional set of macro keys. Asus is not stupid at all; it knows the market this keyboard is aimed at, and it is hoping that gaming enthusiasts and ROG fans will make this product a success. There are not many keyboards that do something different or implement ideas in a way that impresses us. Asus has managed to do that with the ROG Claymore, and it is a very good example of a premium product at a premium price. Is it over the top? Yes. Is it for everyone? No. But if you have the money and want a TKL with an additional numpad, then this is a great option. Is it extreme? Yes. In fact, we have an award for that.”

Platinum Award

“Overall the ASUS ROG Claymore RGB mechanical gaming keyboard is something quite special and if you have a spare wad of cash handy, you probably won’t be disappointed. On the other hand, if you’re looking for something with a bit more ‘value’ factor, there are plenty of options out there on the market, albeit not as good obviously! £200 isn’t a small outlay, but if you want the best, you better be prepared to pay for it! Is the ASUS ROG Claymore the best RGB mechanical keyboard on the market? In my opinion currently, yes!”

Gold Award

“This is one feature rich keyboard but you have to have the accompanying hardware to get the most out of it, definitely an enthusiast product and I can’t think of any keyboard out there that can sync up with your PC hardware.”

Gamer Approved

“It will probably get the Gamer Approved award, just because it is still a great keyboard for gamers.”

Top Performer

“Overall this wins the top performer award!”

Must Have

“The ROG Claymore is the best keyboard I have ever used. It has a price-tag to match, but if you want a keyboard that not only looks great but is also packed to the rafters with useful features, look no further than the Claymore.”

Recommended

The packaging is very well done with the ROG Claymore, coming in a well-designed and informative sleeve. Sliding the sleeve off reveals a hard-foam casing, where you’ll find the keyboard, numpad and wiring housed in velvet bags – a nice touch. You’ll also find a quick-start guide, other materials, and two nice high-quality logo stickers for those of us who enjoy showing off what we’ve got.

The look is cool, the RGB lighting is great, and as a low-sense fanatic the 10 centimeters of extra space when desired is awesome and the feedback of the Cherry MX Switch on a solid backplate feels exactly like a solid mech keyoard should feel.

We are awarding the ROG Claymore RGB the performance award for being the first RGB mechanical keyboard with detachable numpad and has 3 Cherry MX variants to choose from.

Gear of the Year

The Asus ROG Claymore might be the tad too expensive to some, but it’s a price worth paying for the plethora of options and solid build the Claymore brings to the table

B2G Gold

For Php 9,520 SRP, the keyboard competes with the Razer Blackwidow X and the Corsair K95 Platinum RGB as they are of the same price range. While the keyboards mentioned excel in their own field such as 100% per key and RGB customization, what you’ll get with ASUS’ offering is the ability of switch from a full sized layout to either a compact TKL version with only the use of the core, or utilize the numpad as a macropad similar to Razer’s Orbweaver.

"Now the big question remains – is it worth getting? Priced at PhP9,310, it is the best damn keyboard you can get. The features it offers and the benefits you get outweigh its price. It’s definitely worth every penny whether you’re an e-sports gamer or not. We played a few rounds of Diablo 3 using Claymore and Spata. Check out the video below, and scrobble to 19:19 to see everything in action."

The ASUS ROG Claymore got the best features and probably all the features that I want on a mechanical keyboard. It’s comfortable to use, it has a portable and lightweight design and then it has the Cherry MX Blue keys. So would I recommend it? Well, it depends on the budget. If you have the money to spare then why not? but you should take note that there are also other keyboards that have Cherry MX Blue and RGB lighting at a lower price. However, If you’re a die-hard ASUS user or you want a really premium keyboard with a premium gaming design then the ASUS ROG Claymore is the right keyboard for you.

9/10 Hardwarezone

The ASUS ROG Claymore offers everyone something to love: the RGB, the switches, the overall build, and the option to use it as a tenkeyless keyboard or a full layout keyboard. The only complaint we have with the Claymore is the connection it uses for the number pad. We would have liked to see a USB connection instead so you can use the number pad with other keyboards.

RF Glorious Gold Award

Overall the ASUS ROG Claymore is one of the best gaming keyboard to arrive this year, its design and build makes it look and feel like a high quality gaming keyboard as it should be, though the Mayan-inspired detailing has its fair of hit and miss, but it still help bring out one impressive look for the Claymore. The detachable numpad was a great feature along with the RGB lighting effect that allows you to customize the way you use your keyboard and with the Aura Sync that lets you connect other Aura-supported components to sync its RGB lighting effect with your keyboard, a nifty idea if you have any ASUS component installed on your rig. The price tag at around PhP 9,310 may be too steep for some, but investing on the Claymore is worth it as you will know you are getting the best gaming keyboard your money could get.

Wisebuy review award

The Asus ROG Claymore is an excellent keyboard, easy to use, highly customizable and also has a combat design and changing lighting. The best part of this keyboard is also the most important part, it's very nice to type on it. The feeling of the keys, their movement, the sound they produce, were all to our liking. If you are willing to deal with the high price, this keyboard is worth your money.

PC Galaxy review award

The official price of ROG Claymore is $ 174.9. The high price, even for a gaming keyboard, is not a waste if the keyboard is suitable for the buyer. The design will not fit everyone but there will be someone who will sit them stamp on aesthetics. Partitioning into two parts will save the performance of some gamers and be a waste for others. In the end, this is a unique keyboard even within its specific market, and you still have to decide whether this uniqueness is right for you. Asus did not cut anywhere in the keyboard production and therefore they charge you a price accordingly.

IGN

The ROG CLAYMORE is definitely a good keyboard, but you can not ignore the high price switch
