ASUS Scope TKL Deluxe Overview

The ASUS ROG Strix Scope TKL is an excellent mechanical gaming keyboard. It’s a TenKeyLess keyboard without a numpad, and it’s available in various Cherry MX switches. It has excellent build quality and is reasonably comfortable to type on, even without a wrist rest, though there’s a Deluxe variant that comes with one. It has full RGB backlighting with individually-lit keys, as well as LEDs at the bottom of the keyboard to create an underglow effect. Unfortunately, its latency is a bit high and might not be ideal for serious, competitive gamers. Also, while its companion software offers plenty of customization options, it isn’t available for macOS or Linux.
