The ROG Azoth is absolutely the best gaming keyboard Asus has ever released, and the best enthusiast keyboard I've ever seen from a proper established brand that doesn't focus on the segment.

Based on our test results, the 14th-gen chips are marginally faster. In Cinebench R23, the 14th-gen i9 is 5% faster, while for the i5 the difference wasn't significant. In games such as Cyberpunk 2077 or Marvel's Spider-Man, I didn't see that much of a difference, too. I suppose if Intel's APO gets implemented in more games, than perhaps we will see more significant gains for gaming, too. Similar to the 13th-gen chips, the 14th-gen i9 is about 12% faster than the i5 in games such as Marvel's Spider-Man.

In practice, we enjoy the keyboard very much, no matter if we write long texts or adventure into games, the keyboard implements our inputs precisely and immediately.

The Oled screen is interesting [...] and the typing quality is really excellent.

9 out of 10

...we can say that we have fallen in love. First of all, with the keyboard, which beyond the remarkable reactivity of its switches, provides a typing comfort rarely reached. We are also charmed by the mouse/mousepad duo, which manages to innovate in what is ultimately a very codified world.

Silver Award

A very good job on materials and soundproofing has been done on this keyboard which incorporates a lot of elements from the custom world [...] Add to that a nice aluminium top chassis, wireless connectivity including 2.4GHz RTF and Bluetooth and a small OLED display, [...] and you get a keyboard that is overall very pleasant to the fingers, ears and eyes.

The Azoth easily sets itself apart from the typical gaming keyboards with both the above-average solid construction, some nice feature extras such as the OLED screen, but especially those nice smooth switches that feel a class (or 3) better than the typical red switch.

The ROG Azoth is a real gem, if you love compact keyboards, that will allow you to express yourself at your best in your games. Equipped with a not inconsiderable weight and a fairly sturdy design, this 75% compact keyboard possesses a truly exceptional responsiveness to allow a very small reaction time. However, in long sessions the absence of a wrist rest is felt given its slightly excessive height. Despite this minor problem, our test ran smoothly, thanks largely to a battery that was nearly

Everyeye Score

The Asus ROG Azoth is a mechanical keyboard that looks to the DIY world without diving into it entirely, offering a high-level experience and especially in line with the price at which it is sold in terms of quality of materials and ease of use, but it tends to be more expensive than fully custom products of the same level. The NX Red switches are superior to those you would find on any consumer-level keyboard but certainly not up to par with the Enthusiast options

This is one of the best quality keyboards on the market right now.
