Overview

The most versatile keyboard

Give your opponents no chance with the ASUS ROG Claymore II. This wired or wireless keyboard features red ROG RX optical mechanical switches that provide a smooth, linear feel to give you near-instantaneous response when you press the key. Easily turn your keyboard into a TKL keyboard for gaming sessions with the removable numeric keypad, and place it on the right or left side of the keyboard to suit your current preference when working.

ROG RX optical switches

The ASUS ROG Claymore II features red ROG RX optical mechanical switches for an almost certain victory in every battle. With a 1.5mm actuation point, enjoy ultra-fast inputs while the initial force of 40g prevents accidental hits and goes up to 55g for a perfect edge return. Your opponent doesn't stand a chance, with each press of a key, the action is instantaneous.

What's more, these keys have been designed to prevent accidental hits.

A keyboard to suit you

The ASUS ROG Claymore II keyboard features Aura Sync RGB technology, which gives you the ability to customize your keyboard witha variety of colours and lighting effects. In addition, the lighting can be easily synchronised with devices in the Aura eco-system to create a unique environment and assert your preferences. And thanks to its removable design, you can easily detach the keypad and place it on the left or right. And the removable magnetic wrist rest makes long gaming sessions comfortable.

The ROG Claymore II has a battery life of either up to 100 hours with the Aura Sync light off and in wireless mode, or up to 40 hours with the light on thanks to its built-in 4000 mAh battery. It can also work with a USB-C to USB-C connection to ensure fast charging and an efficient user experience. While it still has a USB-A port like the vast majority of keyboards, the additional use of a USB-C port means that a charge of just 30 minutes will give you nearly 18 hours of use with the Aura light off.

    Battery charger

    I had to send it to the garage 2x, and now I can't because it's no longer under warranty, the battery swells and makes the "I O K L" keys unusable, you have to remove the battery for it to work, and therefore lose the use of the wireless, I would have had 3 keyboards, all 3 had the problem.

    Unreliable

    Very good quality product in general, but not at all reliable:
    Completely randomly, the keyssssssssssssss decide to stop working and then go on a loop indefinitely. It's already taken me a long time to type what I've just written!! and I didn't voluntarily correct the m****** that the keyboard slipped in (when it wasn't deleting the whole sentence at the slightest "backspace").
    In short, just unbearable. The first one I got did it, I sent it back to LDLC who sent me a 2nd one back without a fuss, but unfortunately it seems to be a problem with the product itself...

    So: AVOID.

    Avoid / Scam / What kind of racket is Asus?

    I've been using this keyboard for 1 year now and I've never really enjoyed it.

    It makes you wonder about the veracity of other reviews.

    Armoury Crate (AC) 'works', and I'm pleased to say that it recognises my QWERTY keyboard rather than my AZERTY keyboard, which you'll understand is stupid as the computer uses the keyboard as an AZERTY keyboard, which causes some pretty funny keyboard bugs, such as pressing 'e' and the keyboard writing things like '***************zeeeeeeee*********************eeeeeeezzzzzzzzzzzzz***********vvvvvvvvv'.
    The detachable numeric keypad only causes false contacts, so it's useless.
    The RGB configuration crashes/resets every time the computer is restarted.
    The ASUS service is particularly stupid because the latest AC updates have rendered this keyboard unusable simply because it no longer writes (fortunately my old Logitech keyboard from 10 years ago is still working).

    LDLC thank you for withdrawing this product from sales, it is a scam,

    PS: Of course all this was brought to the attention of ASUS service easily 9 months ago.

    Extremely expensive

    The keyboard is really good, I love the sound of the keys and the battery is not bad (I recharge it about every 3-4 days) only this is the software from Asus (Armoury Crate) that allows you to manage the keyboard settings and the software is an absolute purge, between resetting the settings for no reason and some settings not wanting to work or even the software not wanting to install for no reason

    So as usual, my experience with Asus can be summed up as Good hardware, bad software, at this price it's annoying.

    Well

    The keyboard is very well made.
    The battery lasts a long time.
    The LEDs are brighter than my old Logitech G510 and can be adjusted via "ARMOURY CRATE D'ASUS".
    The keyboard is still a surprise, it's nice, I didn't expect it, but the price is completely out of line for a simple keyboard that doesn't even have a screen, ASUS is exaggerating.
