AOC AGK700 Gaming Keyboard and AGM700 Gaming Mouse Review

A Closer Look

AGK700

The biggest thing when it comes to mechanical keyboard is the switches. For some this can be confusing and somewhat complicated because there are so many choices out there. This particular keyboard features the Cherry MX Blue switches. Lets break down and compare the differences of the ones out there courtesy of PC Gamer and wasd for the force curve.

“Regardless of make, the behavior of any switch can be divided into three categories:

  1. Linear. The keystroke is consistent and smooth.
  2. Tactile. A bump in the middle of travel, usually around the actuation point.
  3. Clicky. A bump in the middle of travel accompanied by a sharp “click” sound.

Cherry MX Blue

  • Behavior: Clicky
  • Feel: Heavy
  • Actuation Force: 60g to get over the tactile bump
  • Actuation Point: 2mm
  • Total Travel Distance: 4mm
  • Sound Level: Loud
  • Rated Lifespan: 50 million keystrokes per key
  • Force Curve: Here

Recommended for: Primarily typing. The Cherry MX Blue has a distinct “click” sound when depressed beyond the tactile point, making it the loudest switch in the Cherry MX family. The Cherry MX Blue’s separated slider construction also provides the highest tactile feedback out of all Cherry MX switches. With that said, the two-piece slider construction also introduces a very pronounced hysteresis, making rapid firing a bit more challenging than linear switches.

 

Cherry MX Blue Switches

Cherry switches are considered to bring the highest standard when it comes to mechanical keyboards. These switches are available in different colors with different features each. Blue Cherry Switches react at a 60 grams pressure, ideally suited for people who love precision. With its additional audible feedback, you can easily react to all actions in-game, giving you 100% control over your inputs.

N-Key Rollover & 100% Anti-Ghosting

The more competitive a game gets, the more APM (actions per minute) you need. The N-key rollover ensures that all your input is being registered correctly. The feature guarantees that no matter how many keys you press, every single input gets noticed and implemented in-game.

The N-Key Rollover goes hand-in-hand with anti-ghosting. In case you accidentally press adjacent keys, the feature eliminates “ghost” registrations and only forwards the input you intend to send.

 

USB Passthrough

With a 1.8m braided 2x USB cable, your keyboard will have the most durable connection possible to your PC. The braided structure is tear-proof, lasting longer than regular rubber cables. The convenient USB passthrough including 1x USB2.0 allows you to quickly plug in additional gear without forcing you to reach behind your tower.

Detachable magnetic leather wrist rest

The grind in competitive games can become quite demanding. The longer you practice, the higher the stress you put onto your wrists. With the detachable wrist rest, your body gets supported no matter how long you’re playing. If you need a change or don’t feel comfortable, you can simply detach the rest and get your wrists into a different position. The wrist rest gets attached magnetically, so you can easily take it on or off within seconds.

Rainbow RGB

Great performance and high responsiveness are essential to keyboards, but being visually pleasing is the icing on the cake. AGK700 has 11 RGB different light effects, so you may choose your favorite ones. To boost your gaming performance, each key color is customizable, so it is makes easier to choose the right attack for a perfect kill in your game.
