AZERON Cyborg Gaming Keypad – Programmable One Handed Keyboard for PC Gaming – with Analog Thumbstick and 29 Programmable Keys – 3D Printed Keypad – for Righties (Beast)

I decided to try this controller for gaming. I have always used a joystick and mouse to game regardless of the game. With the current joystick no longer made, I needed to look for a new option rather than use a keyboard like most gamers. I knew I needed a option with multiple buttons and a joystick type controller for movement since that was what I have always been used to using. This controller is amazing with the number of options and ease of use. The joystick makes movement in game easy and the multiple keys make choices endless. It actually has more options than the joystick I used to use. I will say it takes little time to get used to using. But once I adapt to it, I think it will make using my old joystick obsolete. It's worth saying again, there is a learning curve using it. Finger movement is less than normal depending on how you set it up, so in my early use, I have inadvertently hit the wrong key. But after a couple weeks, I was able to adjust the keys and get used to the movements. Because of the multiple keys and the learning curve, I had to get used to letting my hand hang over the keys, that's the reason for the lower rating on the ergonomics but after some time I do seem to be more relaxed and it doesn't tire my hand out like I thought it might. The software makes set up simple and being able to adjust the controller to my hand also makes it easier to use. It is a little expensive but I expect it to last for quite a while and pay for itself over time.

I teetered on buying this for about 6 months. I watched a ton of YouTube videos and read a lot of reviews. Let me start with some basics of my situation. I’m new to the key board and mouse game. I grew up playing on controllers. I quickly ditched the standard kayboard for a Razer Tartartus key pad. It worked great, but my biggest complaint with the razor is the thumb stick haze clickable positions and when they are programmed for WASD, you almost had to return the stick to the middle position before repositioning it. In other words, if I’m walking forward (A) and want to start walking left (W), I couldn’t just roll the thumb stick over. I ended up wearing out thumb sticks on 2 keypads. The thumb stick on the Azeron was the final straw and I bought it. First off, the thumb stick is a HUGE improvement. Especially after you put the restriction ring and get it tuned and calibrated. I play COD and peeking around corners real quick to take a sniper shot is amazing. Now I will be honest, the learning curve on this is REAL. The first few days, I got frustrated and switched back to the razer mid match several times. It’s been about 2 months now and after forcing myself to grind through some ugly fights, I have boxed up my razer for good. I have all the keys adjusted perfectly to my hand, the optional stand that puts it at a tilt is amazing. I think I will definitely break something eventually, but it’s hard to construct something like this without some parts wearing out. I hammer on my keys and this has made me more self conscious when I play and actually has in turn made me faster. That could just be in my head but who knows. I highly recommend this product IF you are prepared to put in some hours getting used to it and adjusting it to your hand. It is not that difficult, but takes time. Another plus is the tool kit that is provided. I just left the screw driver next to the keypad and if I felt a key could be in a slightly better position, I could just make a quick adjustment and be back in the action in 15 seconds.

Years of playing W-A-S-D keyboard PC games resulted in chronic swelling and pain in my left forearm -- not carpal tunnel, but similar. Recently got the itch to play LOTRO again, and I happened upon this while searching for a gamepad alternative to a PC keyboard. I really admire the design and build of this gamepad. I think it could prevent hand/forearm problems. I think for younger users who just don't worry about those kinds of issues, the Cyborg could make them better gamers because, for example, there are 5 buttons within very short reach of your index finger and, ya know, speed matters. Pros 1. Arrived early in undamaged, sturdy and padded packaging 2. Combined with the magnetic stand (sold separately), I am able to equip it with my hand at a 45 deg angle which is WAY more comfortable than forcing my hand to rest flat on a keyboard 3. It is extremely and ingeniously adjustable. I was able to set it up to fit my hand size and finger length including even my pinkie which is missing about 1/2 inch at the tip due to childhood accident 4. The software app they provide for mapping buttons to keys is very easy to use which encourages experimenting a bit to find the best mapping scheme. When you change a mapped button/key pair, it is immediately written/saved to the Cyborg which is just really convenient compared to making many changes and then having a download-to-device step which might or might not succeed 5. The thumbstick mimics the WASD keys to the extent that moving the stick to a "between" position like NW/NE/SW/SE makes your toon move diagonally, but the direction the toon faces and moves is still controlled by the mouse 6. There are more pros but those are the ones that are key for me Cons 1. Expensive, but when I pulled it out of the box it was easy to see why it isn't cheap 2. Takes some time to get it adjusted for size, mapped to buttons in a sensible way and then to get used to using it. Not an issue for me because I was excited about the possibilities. 3. You can store and switch between two different button/key mappings which is a pro but also probably a minor con for some people that you can't store a few more than that. I poked around the internet a bit and it appears the Cyborg comes from a young company in Latvia. It is the coolest game tech I've seen maybe ever and to my eye appears well made of quality materials. Great idea and well executed. Go Latvia!

This is my THIRD Azeron I've purchased. Not because any of them have failed, but because I get a new one to hand my older ones down to friends and family. I'm in my early 50s and playing any first person games on a keyboard will leave my hands in absolute agony for days. I had used other left handed gaming keyboards like the Razer Tartarus (difficult to program and didn't sit well with my fingers) and my old trusty Logitech G13 (such a shame it's been discontinued) but once I purchased my original Azeron I was in love with how COMFORTABLE it was to rest my hand in/on, and the ease of customizing button placement and programming. The only complaint I can raise is the durability of the 3D printed parts can be a bit iffy, but as I also own several 3D printers it's been easy to replace/repair the occasional issues over the last six or so years) These DO take some adapting to, but once you're comfortable with it you'll wonder how you managed without. For ANY MMO this is almost a must-get, as you can map so many abilities to the various pads on the Azeron, for FPS games the ease of hitting abilities or health packs without having to move your mouse or search for a key is AMAZING. It's absolutely worth the learning curve IMHO!

It's 2023, these guys are selling this product with a thumbstick that acts as a d-pad FFS. Not proportional, hal effect, etc etc...on/off four way (five if you count click!), d-pad. Oh, you CAN get an upgrade to the proportional unit for an extra 50 bucks though! Seriously, literally every game oad sold today, no matter the system it's made for, no matter the price.....*inhales* HAS PROPORTIONAL THUMBSTICKS!! And this is $200+ D-pad $200 Otherwise it is a good product and I'll happily endorse it.... especially if the make the proportional thumbstick STANDARD. Only other nit picks would be the finger pads. Would like to see them reversed to convex rather than concave. Palm rest needs to be adjustable, fore and aft and vertically and side to side (lean it over), maybe have a ball socket mount? There needs to be some small washers for the screws to help distribute the force so it doesn't wear out the surface under the screw. Molded in nylon lock nuts would be legit but I have zero clue as to how impossible that may or may not be to design. Please use a larger machine screw with a slightly larger allen socket...please. The included tool is great. Only request there is it needs the ability to reverse the bit and slide it in for storage. Software needs addressing. It's basic and works but needs to be brought up to the context standards of at least windows 95....wish I were joking. Overall, this product has a ton of potential. But at the end of the day, for me at least....all it's adding is a d-pad to normal keyboard functionality. It IS very well made and pretty well thought out. Just needs a bit more tweaking to bring it up to the current price point in terms of get what you pay for IMO.

Day 1: - It came MUCH earlier than suggested - Unboxing this was a treat (Even my girlfriend got excited it was so neatly packaged) - The instructions were incredibly clear and accessible - Downloading the software and assigning the commands were an absolute breeze - Came with a quality hex tool that seamlessly adjusted everything to my hand size - I have XXXL size hands and this has a little room to spare (I can't even begin to describe what this means to me. Something that fits MY hands??) - Started gaming with it under 30 minutes from opening it up (Most of the time was spent meticulously fine tuning where the controls would be assigned to. - 2 hours into playing with it and I am starting to be able to play legend difficulty in Destiny 2) I am absolutely blown away by my first impressions. I quite literally feel inspired by this marvelous piece of technology. My hands finally didn't feel cramped after an hour of gaming. From small hands to enormous hands this tool is game changing. You are handicapping yourself not having one of these if you are a gamer. I can also see this being beyond useful for music creation, video editing, photoshop, etc. I think I'm in love <3

So far the hardware has been very nice. After an initial period of adjustment (and boy does this thing take some getting used to) I began to use it very effectively. I highly recommend it, it's a great lefthand keypad, and despite the adjustment period, once you're used to it, and with it customized to fit your hand precisely, it's amazing and easy to use. However, the software that came with it is somewhat lacking. Simple obvious functions, such as automatically repeating a keypress as long as a button is held down, or "Turbo" as it used to be called on controllers back in my day, was unavailable, and keymapping was a bit awkward. Fortunately, reWASD works well with it, and makes up for the inferior software it comes with. Still, can't give full marks when it requires an external program to do as well as it should.

Though it’s on the higher end for a gaming tool, HOLY COW it’s awesome!! This is the most fun I’ve had in a long time with a new device! The feel of it, after custom fitting it to your liking, is phenomenal! I haven’t had it long, but I’m still no where used to using it while gaming. But if you love to learn as you play, this will make ANY game feel new to you! The setup is a little difficult, no so much that it’s a bad program, but because you have to decide what button does what! The possibilities are endless! The color itself is amazing! I got it to match the chair my wife bought me for my birthday and I am so happy with it!

Ottimo mi trovo alla grande !

Che dire...si è praticamente tutta in plastica 3d però ben fatta e, come da titolo completamente regolabile, altezza dei tasti, estensione,inclinazione distanza dal polso, orientamento, una vera bomba, in più la chicca dell' analogico laterale anch'esso comodamente regolabile e personalizzabile. Nella confezione viti di ricambio cacciavite con punte intercambiabili, plastiche dell'analogico di ricambio.

Meine Gaming-Skills haben sich seit der Nutzung des Azeron Cyborg spürbar verbessert. Das Keypad ist anfangs etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig, aber sobald man sich eingearbeitet hat, bietet es enorme Vorteile. Besonders praktisch ist, dass sich alle Tasten frei programmieren und individuell an den eigenen Spielstil anpassen lassen. Insgesamt ein starkes Tool für alle, die ihr Gameplay optimieren möchten.

※最初に一つ注意点なのがAmazonで取り扱われているazeron cyborgはMサイズです。 Lサイズをお求めの方はazeron公式サイトから買い求めましょう。 とは言っても一般的な日本人の手の大きさではMでも大きいくらいです。 ※後継機のAzeronCyborg2がAmazonでも取り扱われるようになったぞーーー！！！ ちなみにサイト購入なら細かな色変更とか刻印とかつけれたりする。でも刻印つけたりすると1ヶ月近く届くまで時間かかるので注意。Amazonなら2週間くらいだった記憶。(2022〜23年購入時) ○追記: 物流の改善か、アゼロン公式の経営拡大かはわかりませんが、注文から手元に届くまでかなり速くなっています。cyborg2を注文しましたがなんと5日程で届きました。(運送会社や送料プラン次第で変動有りだと思います。Amazon購入時は遅いかも) 海外発送なのでおそらくは運送会社はfedexまたはDHLでサイト購入とAmazonで大体共通かと思われます。(私はどっちもfedexだった) 【こっから本題】 長年Logicoolやrazerのキーパッドを愛用していた私は、このazeroncyborgという製品を知ってはいたものの、『高えな…とか、ほんとに使えんのか…』とか色々考えてしまい、ずっと購入を踏み止まっていましたが、 ……ある時買い物のタガが外れた勢いでポチってしまいました。 いざ届き開封後手を添える…が、全然手に合ってない。 そう、まずは自分の手に合うように調整する必要があるのです。 これは本当にマジで時間が掛かります、私の場合は2時間程度、手を添えてキーを押しては調整の繰り返しやっと自分の手に馴染む調整が済んだところで、今度はキーごとのプロファイルを設定する必要があり、これにまた随分と時間を割いた。 長い調整が終わり、さあやっと遊んでくれようとワクワクでいっぱいの手を添えると、気持ちが良い程手にフィットしていて、さぞやゲームプレイ体験向上に貢献してくれるのだろうとゲームを起動‼︎ noobプレイの連発、ゲーム初心者かってくらいのガバガバ操作に全米が鼻で笑うレベルのぎこちない動き。 そりゃそうさだって今までのキーパッドど感覚や勝手が違いすぎるんだもん。打鍵感が軽い故、誤操作の連発、挙げ句はキー配列の迷子。格闘を続けて様々なゲームをしながらキーの再設定、さらに違和感感じたらキーパッド自体の調整をする。 いつしかのPCゲームデビューの日を思い出す… いや待てキーボードの方が遥かに簡単だわコレ そしてそうなると自ずと圧倒的にRazer Tartarosの方が楽じゃんよぉってなるわけよ。 だが、それは使い慣れていないから感じる体の甘え。 こんだけ高えもん買ったのに数週間やそこらで『合いませんでしたぁ』ってなるのは、『ぼっ○・ざ・ろっくにハマってギター買ってみたのは良いもののギターってなんでドレミじゃないの？なんでCDEF？♯？僕には無理だぁ』って理解を拒んで諦めてメ○カリに即出品する奴と同じだ、嫌だ。難しいなりに良い事もたくさんあるはずだって意地になって使い続けると… いつの間にか身体の一部のように感じるようになりました まさに感謝の正拳突きが1時間でこなせるようになったネテロ会長のごとく。 前まであったキー位置の迷子や誤入力がなくなり、圧倒的に他のキーパッドでは感じることの出来ない操作感になっていました、感覚的に例えるなら、いつの間にか体に染みつく車の運転技術のような感じ。 『キーボードで良くね？Tartarosかモンゴリアンでいいべ』と言う意見もよくわかる。 でもね？ キー数は30個を超え、Tartarosで感じていたキーが足りない問題も解決、各指の横移動範囲が減ることで快適に操作が出来る、なによりマジで身体の一部感が凄い。 あと見た目カッコ良すぎる。 そこにあるだけで自らの所有欲を満たしてくれるデバイスで買って後悔はなかった。 信者と呼ばれるほどに、現在azeronで取り扱われている製品を一頻り購入し使ってみました。 それを踏まえて、これを超えるキーパッドは恐らく未だ存在しないであろうと私は思っています。最高。でも高え。 ※最後に幾つか注意点。 ・もう一回言うけどazeron cyborg2が発表されてもう買える(2はいいぞ〜) ・爪が長いと誤操作しやすい。ネイル頑張ってる人には厳しそうかも ・キーパッドの調整は開きだけでなく角度の調整も大事。(意外とグリグリ調整できる) ・たまにゲームが本製品をコントローラ判定して使えない(ゲームのiniファイルをイジると治ることがある) ・アナログスティックは寿命が短いぞ‼︎付属のスティックリングつけると割と寿命が伸びる‼︎ どうしてもやばい時はXBOXコントローラーのスティックモジュール移植すれば問題なく動く様になるけど普通の人はそんな事できんわってなるよねごめんね、でも直ったから参考にはなると思って。 ・マジでギター挫折した奴は買うな。(買うな)
