Pros
2 sets of dedicated macro keys. 1 set is repositionable left & right or for use off the board. Switchable Numeric Keypard. Volume control, USB hub, and cherry black mechnical keys!
|
Cons
Not fully lit, but I don't look down at the keyboard when playing anyways.
|
Summary
Keyboard is nothing like I've seen before. Love the fact that keyboard is very customizable. Macro keys can be placed where you want them. Black Cherry Mechanical keys are a dream to type on. Takes gaming and typing to a whole new level. Simply a joy to type on when not gaming.

Cons
Very chunky

Summary
I tried this badboy at a store and was satisfied with the keyboard. Not the best in comparison the the 6gv2 or das models but still has a solid base to it. It has some extra features that other competitors don't have but again, those features make the keyboard very big.

Pros
Sensitive keys
Great esthetic
Quiet sounding mech keys
|
Cons
Lack of function keys such as a mute key
Software needs more options
|
Summary
The Azio Levetron Mech4 keyboard is a dream to type on. Besides it being a mechanical keyboard, it's possibly the more "quiet" keyboard I've heard in a long time. The software isn't anything special that I've seen. You can program keys to do whatever form of macro you'd like. Playing games is great. Very little pressure is needed to activate the keys. You do NOT need to bottom out the key for it to respond do it.

Summary
the keys are amazing and really has that unique feeling when it comes to gaming, but there are no back lights and the back space is small, my hands are not used to that.
I was hoping to reduce the size of the keyboard by taking out the pad section, but it turned out that the keyboard is the same size as a full keyboard without the pad, i say buy this, it is worth it because everything else in it is great ;)

Pros
Solid, numberpad can be moved to left or right side for ease of use.
|
Cons
Volume control sensitivity cannot be ajusted (very slow), loud keystrokes
|
Summary
Wanted a new mechanical keyboard as my old wireless board had issues with ghosting. So far, not an issue. The macro setting are easy to program with a slight learning curve, and all keys can be set to a macro, not limited to the 16 keys.
It has two low powered USB ports, but one is needed for the Macro Board that can be moved above the F-keys, or removed to the side if not needed.
Main bother so far, is the volume knob, it will currently take about 4-5 full revolutions to lower the volume from 100->0. It's faster for me to change the volume on my speaker system, than using this knob.

Pros
Mechanical switches give a nice feel to typing, modular numeric pad and macro buttons are handy
|
Cons
Keys are crowded together, half size backspace key, "Esc", "1", "Q", and "A" buttons have a tendency to either not respond or double print.
|
Summary
Pretty disappointed to be honest. The ESC, 1, Q, and A keys on the keyboard have a tendency to either not respond or type the letter twice. This problem always shows up when I first turn on my computer, then disappears for a while after a few minutes. Unfortunately the problem always seems to return when I'm playing a game... I've tried installing/uninstalling the drivers, but nothing seems to prevent it.
I would definitely buy another mechanical keyboard, but I would NOT recommend this model to anyone. If NCIX didn't state that this keyboard can only be replaced or exchanged with the same model, I'd send it back.

Pros
-looks like a beast
-lots of macro keys
-mechanical keyboard
-sturdy not gonna break
|
Cons
-not backlite
-keys fading within 2 days
-macro software not on par with others for example logitech has better macro key software
-modular keypad when connected is actually bigger than a standard keyboard
-one of my keys get jammed when i press on it (the 0 on the numpad, but thats probably just me and my poor luck)
|
Summary
I wanted to try a mechanical keyboard and this one was on sale on boxing day and so decided to purchase one. I did not think that back lite keys were a big deal at first so opted for a keyboard with out it but some of my keys started fading within 2 days mostly because I have sweaty fingers combined with Starcraft = fast fading keys. If i have to pick again i would buy a mechanical keyboard with back lite keys, that's really my only complaint. Now i don't need to look at the keys when typing, but it just looks bad when keys that are pressed more frequently starts fading. O and the jamming 0 on numpad is really annoying.

Features:Power Within ReachMacro keys are useful but only if they're easily accessible. The Mech4 gaming keyboard was design with that in mind. The modular D-Pad can be adjusted to perfectly complement your hands natural gaming position. Stop wasting time reaching for Macro keys all the way across the keyboard! Improve Your GameThe simplistic design approach improves your speed and accuracy by keeping just 5 Macro keys to the immediate left and 6 additional ones (D-Pad) directly above your hand -- all at your fingertips. Too many Macro keys lumped up together in the same place or split to all corners of the keyboard will only bring additional confusion and stress!
