ROCCAT Horde AIMO Membranical RGB Gaming Keyboard Review

Others/Mice & Keyboards by stefan @ 2018-07-12

In order to try out the new Membranical switches of the Horde AIMO keyboard, we first wrote some articles in Word and afterwards we continued gaming in titles such as AION and Quake Champions: the main keys feel less rubbery when actuated versus a standard membrane switch and ROCCAT has managed to keep the sound levels to a minimum as well. The plastic casing of the keyboard does assist further with noise dampening, while the actuation point does allow the user to type without the need of bottoming out.

The AIMO series would not be complete without trying out the Horde keyboard from ROCCAT; we do really enjoy the fact the manufacturer has chosen to go with a removable wrist rest this time, which makes the product more compact when not used. The Horde AIMO keyboard did arrive inside a medium-sized cardboard enclosure that also mentions the offered layout on the top cover:

 

 

 

On the back side, ROCCAT goes ahead and mentions the main product highlights, including the inclusion of the membranical keys or the tuning wheel with multiple functions:

 

 

 

After removing the top cover, we will be able to spot the main product, along with its accessories:

 

 

 

Speaking of the bundle, the removable wrist rest is additionally wrapped inside a transparent plastic bag:

 

 

 

Besides the matte texture, the all-black wrist rest does include the ROCCAT manufacturer logo in the middle:

 

 

 

On the bottom area, we will be able to spot the black plastic mounting claws, but also rubber strips so the wrist rest will remain fixed during use:

 

 

 

 

 

Next, we could remind of the documentation, which is supplied inside a transparent plastic envelope:

 

 

 

Here we will find a nice set of case stickers of different dimensions, the Quick Installation Guide but also a Disposal Information leaflet:
