azio retro classic artisan reviewa

   Due to its massive size the PC gaming market may be the most influential one currently when it comes to keyboards, mice, headsets and many other peripherals but gamers don't represent the entire consumer base and that's something most manufacturers know all too well. Of course some choose to cater to the needs of gamers mostly because let's face it that's where the big profits are but many still try their best to have variety in their product lines in order to cover every consumer out there. Now as most of you know the market is currently overflowing with RGB mechanical gaming keyboards aimed towards demanding gamers but for people who're not really interested in RGB lighting and are instead looking for an elegant mechanical keyboard designed specifically for their office desk AZIO has them covered with their latest RETRO Classic Typewriter Backlit Models.


   Azio Corp. is a manufacturer dedicated to providing innovative tech gear to make everyday life more engaging and fun. We believe that design has the power to alter not only perceptions, but also emotions. Through superior design, we are driven to provide a better experience for people of all ages from all walks of life, no matter what your hobby, profession, or need may be. Technology can simplify complicated things, or complicate simple things. Our design goal is to create cutting-edge products that are intuitively easy to use, provide maximum comfort, and leave a minimal environmental footprint. Through the use of color, material, and finish, we strive to design our products with the perfect blend of elegance and ferocity. Our brand, Azio®, is an acronym for "A to Z, Input-Output". This reflects the core of our business as a manufacturer of computer and electronic peripherals. The Azio brand logo employs a simple, geometric typeface to resemble solidity, efficiency and forwardness. This simplicity and cleanliness avoids all decorative and nonessential elements to demonstrate that Azio aims to only offer succinct products that have the optimum balance between aesthetics and functionality.


   The RETRO Classic line of Typewriter Backlit Mechanical Keyboards by AZIO includes a total of three models which are available both in wired and wireless versions (wireless Bluetooth model review soon). With us today we have the ARTISAN model which features a zinc alloy copper matte frame with a genuine black leather top but AZIO also makes the ONYX (black chrome frame with black leather top), POSH (copper mate frame with white leather top) and ELWOOD (gunmetal matte frame with walnut wood top) models. All four models feature KAILH Typelit mechanical switches (backlit - white for all models aside the POSH which comes with orange - tactile and clicky switches with an endurance of up to 50 million clicks), 2 lighting modes (reactive/breathing), N-Key Rollover via USB, shared media keys, 6 feet braided cable, rear pillar-style adjustable feet (just rotate to adjust the height of the keyboard) and round keycaps very similar in design to the keys of vintage typewriters (made out of plastic unfortunately).
