ROCCAT ARVO Compact Gamer Keyboard Review

Others/Mice & Keyboards by stefan @ 2010-09-07

The ARVO from ROCCAT is a perfect keyboard for gamers on the go, because it is light and smaller thanks to its direction keys integrated into the Numeric Pad and it is also durable thanks to its robust metal base. The software application that comes with it allows us to set different functions, build macros or even disable some of the keys.

With the ARVO, ROCCAT has succeeded to develop a light and relatively small gaming keyboard; the thumbster keys are placed conveniently for us to access more functions when using the WASD keys. Also, to conserve space, the directional keys have been integrated into the Numeric Pad and they are easy to access.

In the software, we have multiple profiles available in which we can save our settings, create macros or even disable some of the keys.

The keyboard is also durable, because it contains a robust metal base; these being said, the ARVO has many features to help professional gamers that are many times on the go and participate at many Lan-parties.

Typing on this keyboard produces much less noise than on a mechanical one and the keys are really easy to press.

While testing out the keyboard, in both office and gaming environment, I have observed that much more space was saved on the table because of the keyboard size; thanks to this, we can use more space for the mouse. The stability of the keyboard is assured not only by the metal plate, but also by the plastic feet we can find underneath.

This keyboard can be found online for about 60 Euros, compared to the Valo, which is much more expensive and can be found for about 100 Euros.

I would like to thank again to ROCCAT for making this review possible!
