TheAsusROG Falchion RX Low Profile might be the first to actually win me over.
This is a different ballgame though.
Compared to the relatively flatCherry MX LP 2.1, this is a dream.
That height is ever so slightly helped by the white case that ships with the keyboard.
All in all, the build quality is incredibly high here.
That’s a particularly lightweight switch with a relatively sensitive actuation point.
Each switch features centralized RGB lighting to keep bleed to a minimum as well.
Of my comparison pool, the Asus wins in the connectivity department.
Performance
Typing on the Asus ROG Falchion RX Low Profile feels more like gliding across fresh snow.
The super lightweight switches, soft keycaps, and gentle sound profile make for a particularly pleasant experience.
The Cherry MX-LP 2.1 has a little more weight to its keypresses, with a scratchier feel overall.
In fact, there was only ever one problem I encountered while testing the Falchion.
Should you buy the Asus ROG Falchion RX Low Profile?
You’re also losing MacOS functionality and those media controls in that sacrifice as well.
If you’re after ahot-swappable keyboard, Endgame also ticks that box.
At the time of writing, theRazer Deathstalker V2 Prois our favorite low profile gaming keyboard overall.
