ASUS ROG announced the ROG Falchion RX Low Profile gaming keyboard

ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) proudly announces the release of the ROG Falchion RX Low Profile gaming keyboard, a cutting-edge 65% keyboard that earned the prestigious 2024 CES Innovation Award at CES 2024. This ultrathin keyboard, with a mere 26.5 mm profile, ingeniously incorporates arrow and navigation keys within its compact 60% frame.

Armed with pre-lubed ROG RX Red or Blue Low-profile Optical Switches, the Falchion RX Low Profile guarantees wobble-free keystrokes with minimal debounce delay, all while showcasing centralised lighting.

An intuitive multifunction button and interactive touch panel empower users to seamlessly adjust volume, play/pause media, or fine-tune keyboard lighting. Commands are fully customisable through Armoury Crate, enhancing the user’s control. With tri-mode connectivity, users can effortlessly connect to three devices simultaneously via Bluetooth, ROG SpeedNova 2.4 GHz wireless technology, or a wired USB connection.

For added versatility, the Falchion RX Low Profile extends support to MacOS, allowing users to effortlessly toggle between Windows and MacOS modes. Additionally, it comes with a convenient travel cover, offering day-to-day protection against dust, scratches, and general wear and tear.

ROG Falchion RX Low Profile Features:

  • Compact and Slim Design – It’s a 65% keyboard. The inclusion of arrow and navigation keys within its 60% aluminum frame ensures functionality without sacrificing the slim profile, measuring a mere 26.5 mm thick.
  • Low-profile Optical Switches – Featuring RX Low-profile Optical Switches with UV-coated ABS keycaps, the Falchion RX Low Profile provides greater stain-and-scratch resistance compared to standard ABS keycaps. Pre-lubed for smooth performance, they deliver consistent and wobble-free keystrokes with minimal debounce delay, offering 1.0 mm and 1.5 mm of travel distance for Red and Blue switches, respectively.
  • Tri-mode Connectivity The ROG Falchion RX Low Profile offers versatile tri-mode connectivity through Bluetooth, 2.4 GHz Wireless, or a wired USB connection.
  • Touch Panel and LED Lighting An interactive touch panel combined with a multifunction switch empowers users to effortlessly adjust volume, control media playback, and modify keyboard lighting. An LED feature illuminates each touch panel use, adding a visual element to user commands.
  • Convenient Features The ROG Falchion RX Low Profile supports MacOS and includes a convenient toggle for seamless switching between Windows and Mac.
