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.

Comment:
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.

Cons: Lack of function keys such as a mute keySoftware needs more options

Pros: Sensitive keysGreat estheticQuiet sounding mech keys
Comment:
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.

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 ;)

Cons: Volume control sensitivity cannot be ajusted (very slow), loud keystrokes

Pros: Solid, numberpad can be moved to left or right side for ease of use.
Comment:
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.

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)

Pros: -looks like a beast-lots of macro keys-mechanical keyboard-sturdy not gonna break
Comment:
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.

Cons: -Keys stop working all of a sudden, have to unplug/plug back the keyboard-Take some times to get accustomed to because of the left macro buttons

Pros: -Nice keypress and very responsive-Customizable-Strong build
Comment:
Been looking for that keyboard since a couple of weeks because i always felt that normal keyboard were too large: i use my right arm for the mouse and i always felt it was too far to the right because of that. Then i decided i would buy it. At first, drivers didnt install well. I had to re-install it (i have windows 7 64bits, for those who wonder). It's very useful to be able to switch the numpad from sides to side, making the keyboard a lot smaller.The anti-ghosting zone is working well.I have an intermittent problem with it tought : at some points, one or more key stop working. I have to unplug the keyboard and plug it back in order to restore the functionnality of the key. I will probably check with Azio about this.In conclusion, this keyboard is very well made, very strong and has a lof of customization and macros keys. Every keys can be remapped and it's useful. I hope they make more accessories to go with it.

Cons: Malfunction within the first week. I connected the number pad to the right side of keyboard. When the keypad was powered (light on) and you press the space bar, it would type 0 and a space. Every time. key pad off it works fine. During the POST screen no power to the main keyboard but the number pad worked fine. Could not get into bios or safe mode cause no power.

Pros: Keys very responsive, not much effort at all to register key press.Volume knob works a lot better than my previous Saitek Eclipse II volume buttons.
Comment:
Had high hopes for this keyboard. It is in the process of RMA from AZIO. Keeping fingers crossed new one will work as intended.

Cons: Knew coming in it had the small backspace and large enter key, will take some time getting used to. Volume knob not working in some games(a main reason for purchase)The folding arms on the sides take up quite a bit of space if going the Tenkeyless route of keyboardPad printed key caps showing slight wear already on heavily used areas(wasd)NCIX customer service was quite abysmal on the phone, was denied a RMA for the keyboard do to "sanitary reasons"

Pros: Solid construction, a volume knob! Semi textured finish, multiple heights for the feet, which are all padded. Cherry black switches, heavy, and linear, make sure you research your switch types before buying(below reviews)!
Comment:
Decent board overall, was disappointed with the volume knob not working in some games though.
