@@Nischal_Gaming Got the tofu60 redux case in red, duckey raptor HE switches and red keycaps from corsair. Might upgrade the stabilizers at some point but the stock ones are good too.
@@EvgenyElbert The warranty is basically non existent lol. Asus has been recently known for doing whatever they can to not claim people's warranty, like yours.
My Endgame Gear KB65HE with rapid trigger, an aluminum case, Ducky doubleshot PBT keycaps, and pre-lubed Gateron KS-37B switches only cost $100 (got it on sale). $500 for a keyboard without rapid trigger just seems crazy, unless you're a really big keyboard enthusiast.
Plenty custom keyboards that are north of 500 bucks and most of them don't have rapid trigger, because that's only useful for the most professional of pro gamers. The people who buy custom keyboards don't care about that because they are casual gamers at most. It's like complaining that a Patek Philippe has no smart functions...
@@Prunesquallor Idk, it seems like a crossover between gaming and custom. But I think it's a compromise on both, so neither side will be truly satisfied.
I’ve been using North-facing switches for a long time, and listening to those “keyboard enthusiasts”, I tried the South-facing switches keyboard. Turns out I really don’t like the way the RGB of South-facing switches light up, it looks “cheap” for a $200 keyboard I spend on. Like I can see the lightbulb from the angle I sit, it’s fking ugly. North-facing switches doesn’t have this problem and light up evenly, props to ROG for keeping the North-facing switches❤ Loving the Azoth so far😍
Great review, so happy you are back Squishy Boy! Of course you could almost get a WS Freya for the price of this board and have a true work of art. I planned to get this for one of my sons but not sure at $500... was expecting $300. Maybe it will go on sale at some point. Of course my QK75n with Nixies and GMK caps easily pushed close to that so who knows...
Youshud make a videos modding the keyboard you should take apart the switches and lube it very well and then change the springs to heavier springs and put ceramic keycaps
in my opinion i like the north facing switch better cuz i can use in the dark with them ( im currently using a south facing switch and it kind of a pain to use in the night)
I'm never going back to mechanical switches. I switched to a Corsair optical keyboard, and the smoothness and lightness can't be beat (except maybe by a better designed optical/Hall effect switch).
Production quality and out of the box features are insane, price is definitely steep but I don't see this product as being really all that mass produced, it's for a specific target audience and I'm sure the production numbers will reflect that.
Damn, this is how I found out about the price. I had been contemplating getting this when it came out, but that price is a tough pill to swallow. I had also hoped for a ISO keyboard layout but it is what it is (I know that's probably an unpopular opinion, and I'm sorry.)
spending these prices on keyboards is insane lmao i bought a keyboard for £30 after looking it up the market price is $165 and it works perfectly fine like any other keyboard.
Hall effect is just a must, but we already have Snap Tap as a coming up requirement. Asus is 2 years in the past with their tech, and at nearly 2-3x the price of competitors. Please, Asus, do market research before releasing such products.
@@clarkettinger6958 I think that's an extreme reach especially given this is targeting gamers. Even if it's a great product, I can't fit my "swanky" GMK caps so it's not worth more than a Logitech Pro? Pretty hot take with very little logic.
I think this would have a market if it would feature hall effect switches as well as the useful software features that razer and wooting feature but without those its just an expensive hing of metal with a fast polling rate that you can type on
the live grandparents reaction is so wholesome
I appreciated the Squashy Grands.
Indeed ❤
lowkey the best part
"My my, who will buy?" lmfao
@@TheoEclipselmfao I died at that part
straight up called me out in post-production with the keyboard
bmc chatter spotted
so this is the vid... very cool! (nice editing btw)
500$ for a gaming keyboard that doesn't use hall effect switches, ain't no way
thought the same thing
not even has snaptap xD
just stuck in the past
mechanical switches feel better
There are plenty of keyboards that cost over 500$ w/o hall effect. I personally would not buy that KB. I would find a nice shell, and build my own.
Carbon fiber plate but no rapid trigger, they got the priorities wrong. My fully modded Wooting was less than 300$USD
"OUT OF TOUCH - OF GAMERS"
what modifications do you have? New to the keyboard world but I am really interested in upgrading my wooting
@@Nischal_Gaming Got the tofu60 redux case in red, duckey raptor HE switches and red keycaps from corsair. Might upgrade the stabilizers at some point but the stock ones are good too.
but is your wooting modded to 8khz?

Just don't expect ASUS to honour the warranty.

That is issue only in USA.
Well GN met them and we can hope they will honor the warranty in the future

Asus Rog Azoth White Wireless with the exact NX Snow switches for the last 7 months and i love it + is half price :)

0:47 not me!! 😂😂😂
we need more squashy parent reactions in the future
“RGB, CYMK, LGBT” damn this keyboard is so inclusive!!
1:41 little johnny would like this keyboard 🗿
you should expand way beyond keyboard content i enjoy your style of editing and stuff im rlly baked but i love the vid man.
oh yea im planning on doing that on the second channel (quick plug squashy boy 2)
I simply missed my grandparents. I will they we're here.
Your grandparents should be more featured in video's lol
Dude that is insane. now do a budget version. You can make a series off of this. When comparing you can give recommendations etc etc.
4:57 is so satisfying!
I feel like a few years ago this could be a good choice for some but nowadays you have so many instock options better than this
thank you for making learning such an enjoyable experience!
now even grandma is clip farming 😭
I'm so glad little john made this keyboard with galvanized square steel, definitely worth $500.
WAKE UP... ITS A NEW SQUASHY VID
0:08 Jordan: it’s $499 *USD
1:41 LMAO I CANT I SPIT ON MY MONITOR ACIDNETKYL HE
galvanized square steel?!?!
Parents reaction is legit, you have amazing family, best wishes from Colombia. BTW who can afford this keyboard fr?
The THX intro sound hits
my parents would call me a disappointment lol
in my opinion i like the north facing switch better cuz i can use in the dark with them ( im currently using a south facing switch and it kind of a pain to use in the night)
"how do i do?" BEST REACTION EVER
not even into keyboards and got this recommended after a couple of minutes it was uploaded, I was meant to see this video
I'm never going back to mechanical switches. I switched to a Corsair optical keyboard, and the smoothness and lightness can't be beat (except maybe by a better designed optical/Hall effect switch).
Production quality and out of the box features are insane, price is definitely steep but I don't see this product as being really all that mass produced, it's for a specific target audience and I'm sure the production numbers will reflect that.
Are there any new keyboards that sounds and feels like the black widow chroma 1? Or rather any custom keys like that?
we got gramps and granny squashy before gta 6
It took a crash in world computers for squashy to release another video
grandparents are SO ADORABLE OMG
Damn, this is how I found out about the price.
I had been contemplating getting this when it came out, but that price is a tough pill to swallow. I had also hoped for a ISO keyboard layout but it is what it is (I know that's probably an unpopular opinion, and I'm sorry.)
imagine if they made this keyboard with HE switches, it would be crazy with wireless mode
if asus gets the price down this could be something cool. 500 is way to much.
also i cant live without HE anymore
little john momments are crazy
Ok ngl I just want the wrist rest. How do we get just that. LMAO
GALVANIZED SQUARE STEEL 🔥🔥🔥🔥
spending these prices on keyboards is insane lmao
i bought a keyboard for £30 after looking it up the market price is $165

Why are HFX a must??
Would buy it if it had rapid trigger
god, your grandparents are so wholesomely cute! 10/10 reviewers.
His parents reactionwas adorable 😂
i had so much problem with their software, insane. just go Wooting guys.
Does this thing actually scan at 8k? a lot of keyboards claim 8khz polling but scan at 1k :|
2:58 herta mentioned 🗣️
it is now $700 at Best Buy and does not have Rapid Trigger or Snap Tap.

north facing switches in a board anywhere above 120usd is CRAZY

felicidades por el video un toque con mucha personalidad no cambies nunca manten ese humor que te hace unico❤
0:45 wooooww!
“WHO WILL BUY 😀”
HAD ME DEAD
This keyboard is really impressive, but a gamer-focused board without HE switches in 2024 just doesn't make sense-especially at that price.
Wow Asus put out a rapid trigger like feature 1 day later.
4:53 😌
grandparents might be the key to zillion views counts.
North facing RGB is the only way to go for gaming keyboard IMO.
you got me thinking
a keyboard with galvanized steel, eco friendly vaneer and aunt's screws???
didn't know ken jong was your grandma
For $500 that KB better survive a tsunami
when more grandparents content?
More grandparents participation!!!
I think this would have a market if it would feature hall effect switches as well as the useful software features that razer and wooting feature but without those its just an expensive hing of metal with a fast polling rate that you can type on
good day when squashy posts
Asus:Nah we dont care about the weight
Also Asus:You know what?we are adding carbon fibre lets gooo
having a very wholesome grandma that looks like Ken Jeong is so cool
me watching this on the old version of the rog azoth :
300 I might pick up but 500 is just crazy
3:23 hikaru vibes
The razer deathstalker ultimate also have a lcd touch screen on it
It does look like a very premium pre-built keyboard. Although, I might pay 500 SGD for this but not 500 USD tbh
