ASUS ROG Keris Wireless Lightweight Gaming Mouse – 16,000 DPI Sensor, Swappable Side Buttons, Aura Sync RGB Lighting

Innovative
The ROG lineup of mice have stepped up with this one.Pros:- Hotswappable switches- Small ergo (personal pref. I’m 18×9.5)- Best side buttons and main clicks I’ve ever used (optical switches are nice but the included japanese omrons are simply the best)Cons:- Slow stock skates- No dongle for USB receiver- Sharp edge on right mouse button (could be detrimental based on grip)- Scroll wheel steps are too tight- 79 grams seems a bit high for the size (~70g would’ve been perfect)The pros outweigh the cons and if the shape works for you, you’re in luck.

SOLID mouse, if the shape fits.
The overall impression that the experience offers is much more than I was expecting. Packaging and included accessories are nice, software is DETAILED. The mouse itself (wired) is SOLID, which is impressive given the fact that it easily comes apart for switch modularity. No shakes, rattles, or creaks in my copy. Paracord feels on par with XM1 RGB I had (soft, flexible and light).The shape and materials is where it kind of falls short for me, unfortunately. The primary buttons wrap around the side and directly interfere with grip, which is further burdened by the choice to use slippery PBT on specific grip surfaces. I alleviated the slip to a degree by using blue masking tape on the sides, but the awkward curve of the primary buttons still interfered with finger placement for my grip (undisciplined palm/claw). I’d have to cut away the click paddle on the right side to keep it from pinching on my ring finger.Ultimately I put it back into the box and stored it with the others in my collection, which is disappointing given the sheer quality and effort put into designing this thing. I *want* to love it but my goofy grip is just not part of what it was designed for. Mouse I’ve gravitated towards: Roccat Kone Pro as it more comfortably fits my slightly off-sized hand (7×4 inches).

FANTASTIC entry as a budget hotswappable mouse…save for a few glaring issues.
I want to say that I WANT to love this mouse. The weight matches that of my previous Glorious Model O Wireless, without compromising on battery, in fact it improves here, structure, which is once again an improvement as it drops the honeycomb shell for a more traditional looking one, and aesthetics. This is a mouse that could really have been the endgame gaming mouse for limited budgets, when you pair the idea of hot swappable pressure fit switches and Bluetooth connectivity. And it ALMOST does this…but just falls short of the mark. One disclaimer: As the Model O Wireless from Glorious was my last mouse, I’m using it and my experience with it as a means of direct comparison for this review and is, at Glorious’s price on their site, only $5 more than the ROG Keris, so it’s also the closest mouse that I have found in terms of feature set and price.Battery life I will say is excellent. I can, with the lights on over Bluetooth and the 2.4GHz USB adapter that stores in the base of the mouse cleanly and securely, go about a full week with a 6 hour frame of time where I’m using the mouse 5 days a week, and about 12ish over the weekend, on average, before the mouse begins to flash red, telling me it’s time to plug in. Obviously if I’m playing a shooter or something where I’m pushing the mouse into overdrive, this will be different, but as I’ve been getting back into a few MMORPGs at the time of this review, among them Lost Ark, I’m not really pushing the mouse like I would in a shooter like Destiny 2, so battery lasts a bit longer. Obviously your milage may vary, but it’s safe to say that where this mouse shines the most is in balancing the amount of power the RGB LEDs shine, which is set with Armoury Crate (so if you want to change that, you’ll have to download that), with battery life when using it wirelessly.Ah yes, though, the software. The software is hands down where ASUS FAILS MISERABLY, with Armoury Crate being easily the worst client that I have ever used. I’ll not mince words here, ASUS, Armoury Crate deserves all of the hate you’ve heard given to it. It’s slow, half the time doesn’t recognize the mouse over the 2.4GHz USB receiver, and seems to fail updates that it needs to have for both the mouse and the software to interface with it. It can’t even make or see changes, power included, over Bluetooth. It’s really good that unless you’re wanting to set this, you don’t need this, and that once you do you can forget this and never look at it again, HOWEVER, if you want on the fly battery charge status as you use it…you’re stuck. The only way to get that in your Windows system tray is with the app. It’s best to set it up, and just let the mouse tell when it’s time to plug in, especially if you have RGB lighting in your system and RAM that will sync with Aura Sync, because it will take control on every boot of that lighting too whether you want it to or not.Now, as I mentioned Bluetooth, let’s talk connectivity. I have had some latency issues with it on BT5.0 that have cleared up with a BT4.0 dongle, despite this mouse supporting BT5. Now this is a disclaimer here than a point lost in this review, as this COULD have been something with my setup, so I won’t hold it too much against it-the fact that it is there is a nice to have if you’re short on USB ports like I am with my B550 Tomahawk board from MSI. Where I don’t though is that it also lacks a USB base, for lack of a better term, for plugging the dongle into the Paracord as it sits on your desk, as a form of extender or adapter, like most wireless mice, like the MOW. I DO forgive this oversight though *to an extent*, as…the mouse DOES feature adequate Bluetooth support, even though it still would be a nice to have, as not every system has BT4.0 or 5.0 to really make the latency issue in theory substantially mitigated, and it doesn’t cost that much to make such an accessory as well.The mouse is made of solid materials, but the mouse’s assembly with them is shoddy. For instance, just weeks after I bought the mouse, I had to open it up and use some of my dielectric lube that I bought for my keyboard switches to help alleviate my scroll wheel from horrifically squeaking when I used it, as it was built in such a way that the plastic teeth that hold the wheel in place was scraping along a metal rod internally, with nothing in between them to prevent from rubbing on each other. If there WAS lubrication in there, which I didn’t feel any sign of nor could I see that there was any, it was not enough to prevent this issue. I also feel like the choice of placing the PBT buttons being on the top cover of the mouse instead of using a magnetic system like the next tiered Chakram or some other system of attachment for slightly more money. I feel this would have been a fair trade for what would have translated to $5 and have been still WELL within the budget bracket for lightweight wireless mice. All this I feel leads to some of the design decisions on this mouse being very clearly a cost saving measure that left TOO much on the table, leaving what could have been a really satisfying, solid click with the ROG press fit switches instead feeling like an inconsistent mushy and gummy mess, and overall have just a really unpleasant feeling sound that feels more like something you would find from a $15 mouse in the 90s than a $75 mouse in 2022. The clicks CAN feel nice and sharp and not sound like you’re clicking through a body, but they’re too few and far between to say that ASUS and the ROG passed build quality. What’s more, the plastic also lacks any real solid finishing to allow for decent grip at times, in my experience, leading to the mouse feeling even more like a cheaply made, gimmicky mouse with little to no thought for the end user experience, only charging more as it’s from a leading name.Overall, ASUS has the right idea here. This mouse is innovative, and on the right track to being a superb budget minded mouse. I love the path that ASUS is on here, and this mouse very clearly is a STELLAR, STELLAR platform on which ROG has built their hot swap mice that they have patented at this time. This is an idea that is worth continuing to chase, unfortunately, I feel like ASUS also cheapened this mouse a bit too much in areas where it really, in the end, mattered. The idea, again, is not bad, but the execution was just…lacking enough for me to really say this mouse IN SPECIFIC is worth it. ASUS will have my attention moving forward, but this mouse will be retired to backup status, and I’m likely going to be getting myself a Model D Wireless from here, or the more likely mouse, the ROG Chakram, which…has merit to be the mouse that will be the sweet spot that the Keris could have been from what ASUS has written on it.

This is a great mouse for medium to smaller hands. Sadly it does not come with a dongle extension or grip tape like the aimpoint version.

Llevo poco mas de 3 meses de uso con el y no he tenido ningun problema, muy buena duración de la bateria (creo que lo he cargado un total de 3-4 veces), RGB bastante personalizable, botones extra, texturizado muy agradable al tacto, sofware facil de usar, relativamente ligero, algo pequeño para mis manos pero hasta el momento no me ha resultado incomodo y muy buen desempeño en juegos y uso diario. En general, bastante mejor que mi anterior raton (Logitech g403) y la verdad es que dudo volver a necesitar otro raton en un laaaaargo tiempo.

やっとセールになったので買いました。結論的には今のところ満足してます。所有する喜びがあります。本製品の特徴。・比較的軽い・サイドボタン交換可能(別途2つ付属)・右左クリックのスイッチも交換可能(オムロン製の交換用スイッチが別途2個付属)・有線、無線(Bluetooth/2.4GHz)の3種類で接続可能・接続の切り替えができるので複数端末で同時使用可能(PC2台やPCとタブレットなど)・充電式。Type-Cケーブルの充電可能で汎用性高い(充電ケーブルも付属)・ゲーミングということで光る。程よく品良く光りカッコいい(ホイールとロゴが光ります)・上部は光るけど、センサー部は光らない(invisibleタイプ)・高ポートレート1000Hz(1ms)・ゲーミングなのでRGBで光る・2.4GHz USBレシーバー(USB A)は本体に収納可能・底に貼る滑るパーツも別途4枚付属私はキーボードにこだわっています。多分一番高価なキーボードを使っていますが、逆にマウスは..安物でした。しかし考えてみると、仕事で毎日パソコンを使っていますし、パソコンに触れている間はキーボードやマウスをずっと触ります。つまり、仕事をする道具として相当重要な位置をキーボードとマウスが占めています。であればキーボードだけでなく、マウスもいいものを使いたい、と思ってこちらを購入しました。近頃は他にも色々高額なマウスはありますが、上のような特徴を兼ね備えたマウスは見当たりませんでした。最強認定していいマウスです。しかも価格も通常1万円でお釣りが来ます。最強だけど最高額ではない.. いいですね。スイッチやボタンなどが交換できる、ということは長持ちするということでもあります。推奨するわけではないですが、分解もできるようなので電池交換なども不可能ではないでしょう。ということで安物にはない魅力を多くもったいいマウスで長持ちしそうなので、購入しました。肝心の使い心地ですが、これは特に問題なく、これまで使ってきたマウスより快適に使っています。握りやすい、持ちやすいです。指が樹脂のどこかに引っかかって痛いとかもありませんでした。サイズ的には普通のマウスサイズです。コンパクトなタイプではありません。私は、どちらかと言えば静音の方が好み。スイッチは交換してないのですが、初期状態だとクリック音は、静かながらカチカチします。ホイールはスムーズタイプではなく、止まる感覚のあるタイプです。こちらの方が好き。そして当たり前ですが充電しながらも使えます。【追記】発売日 2021/3/5..本日6/25時点で107個の評価あり。マウスでは高額な部類なので、それなりにこだわられている方だけが買っている商品だと思いますが、すごいのが、★1と★★2がゼロなこと。皆無。★★★3以上のみ。しかも★★★3は少なく8%だけ。★★★★★5が68%.. 残りが★★★★4。こういう商品だと必ず不良でした、すぐ壊れた、どこどこが悪いなどと★1とか出てくるのに、3ヶ月以上たち、それなりに売れている高額商品でこの評価は率直にすごいと思いました。やはり「最強マウス」です。【追記2】マウスの動きがおかしくなったら.. 電池不足かも。充電してみてください。私はそれで改善されました。
