Our Verdict
Razer BlackWidow V3 Pro
ASUS ROG Azoth
The Razer BlackWidow V3 Pro and the ASUS ROG Azoth are wireless mechanical gaming keyboards with similarly outstanding gaming performance. The Razer is a larger full-size keyboard with a wrist rest and dedicated media keys. On the other hand, the Azoth is a smaller 75% keyboard with a better overall build quality and a gasket-mounted design that provides a superior overall typing experience. Additionally, it has a programmable OLED screen.
