The revised LIVA Q3 Plus benefits from the much newer Ryzen Embedded R2314 SoC which features the 12nm fabrication process, has a core speed of about 100MHz higher versus the V1605B but does lack HyperThreading. Because of this, we noted a bit smaller scores versus the previous SKU in apps which need more threads such as encoding/rendering, but it really holds its own when discussing about 3D performance in games or other 3D applications, where the improvement is clear!

The EXCERIA PLUS 1TB, now in regular SD card format does offer the performance it promises, making it perfect when used for 4K video recording or fast high-res photography. It complies with the V30 video speed class, is backed by a 5-year warranty, and supports CPRM as well!

The even more cost-effective version of the Armor series does include the same 2TB drive model as the A85B, so the performance is basically the same, but the outside shell is now made of rubberized plastic instead of aluminum and this can be also noted by the lighter drive (277g vs 298g). The Armor A65B does max out at only 2TB (unlike A85B which can go up to 5TB), but includes the same MIL-STD 810G Method 516.6 Procedure IV protection standard as its more expensive brother.

After customizing the keyboard with our own settings, we did play some missions in Mass Effect Andromeda, Dying Light 2, Star Wars: The Old Republic but also World of Warcraft; we did really enjoy the response and silent behavior of the Razer Yellow linear switches, which do feature built-in sound dampeners, but the bottoming-out sound is further minimized thanks to the included foam in the bottom case, but also between the circuit board and the top case. We found the Command Dial really useful for performing different functions on-the-fly in productivity applications at the office such as Word/Excel, including the moments when working with lots of multimedia content.

The STREAM WIRELESS keyboard offers a pleasing typing experience at the office, while keeping the noise at a minimum. It is also great for the financial departments due to the inclusion of the numeric pad, while multimedia functions are easily accessible via the extra buttons. The wireless aspect does add to the ease-of-use aspect, not requiring any extra drivers and if we would like to remap some of the keys, we can download the optional software from CHERRY’s website.

After customizing the LED lighting with our own preference, we started gaming World of Warcraft, Gotham Knights, AION Classic but also Need for Speed Unbound; the keyboard felt responsive and we did really enjoy the typing experience of the Kailh Red RGB, which, by the way, come with a 70 million actuation lifespan! The keyboard can be used for productivity work as well given the fact that we get access to the usual apps via keystrokes such as calculator, web browser, email, or default video player.
