azio armato ce reviewa

   RGB illuminated devices may be among the hottest selling products in the electronics industry right now but as we've pointed out many times already not all people are into it and yes that even includes gaming peripherals. Of course people can always choose single colors for their RGB illuminated gaming peripherals but on one hand price is always an issue (RGB models usually cost more compared to their single color counterparts) while on the other some gaming peripherals don't really go hand to hand with many different colors. The typewriter inspired classic edition of mechanical keyboards by Azio is a perfect example of this and after having tested their somewhat impressive RETRO model we decided to take a thorough look at their Armato CE gaming model.


   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 Armato CE Mechanical Gaming Keyboard is actually the typewriter inspired classic edition of the Armato Mechanical Gaming Keyboard and so it basically combines the typewriter style keycaps of the MK RETRO model with the "regular" Armato. This however means that although both keyboards are extremely similar they have but one serious difference, the type of switches used. So although the regular Armato model features Cherry MX Brown switches (gold plated - tactile feedback - 50 million keystrokes) the Armato CE comes with the not so popular OARMY Blue mechanical switches (tactile and clicky feedback - 50 million keystrokes - probably manufactured by Kailh). Other features include a brushed aluminum top plate with silver aluminum mesh pieces (the regular Armato comes with red), dedicated rubber media control buttons with an aluminum volume control wheel, 5 dedicated programmable macro keys, N-Key/6-Key rollover, ambient white backlight for the keys (3 modes including per key illumination) and a removable magnetic palm rest.
