Question 1

What does the W light mean? I have lights N C W on the top-right of the keyboard. I know that the N means Numlock and the C means Capslock but what does the W mean? It's always lit for me.

Accepted Answer

I know the W is windows lock... Im not sure how to turn it on and off though... *googles* I dont know some different solutions on how to reset the keyboard, one says hold ctrl+shift and press the windows key. Might be for specific keyboards though. Honestly I don't even know how to enable windows lock on my keyboard since Ive never used the windows key. I'd assume...

Never mind just figured it out. Hold FN and press the windows key to turn it on and off. :) Your welcome

Question 2

In the pictures I can see the number/symbol reversal talked about in the reviews, but the pictures cannot show the actual use. Do I need to  in order to use a number and not-shift for the percent symbol or dollar sign? What about the comma, period, and forward slash? Do I shift for them and not-shift for the Greater & Less Than symbols and the question mark?

Accepted Answer

No, you don't shift to use the number keys. You shift for  ? not for , . /

Question 3

So, I notice the key switches are not the ubiquitous Cherry MX brand, but a different design.  I also notice they made them blue, and the specs say they have a tactile bump and audible feedback.

So they're clearly looking to be similar to the Cherry MX Blue, my personal favorite of the Cherry MX.

Can someone who has used both, give a bit of a comparison in terms of feel, volume, etc?

Even better if you are old dinosaur like me and used IBM Model M 'buckling spring' bump/click keys.  (Those are superior IMO to the Cherry MX Blue, but only slightly.)

Thanks in advance!

Hello so first off the switches used are by a company called Kailh, and they are direct clones of Cherry MX siwtches.  These are rather common switches found in many of your your more affordable mechanical keyboards, in fact Razer uses this companies switches for their keyboards.  Since they are clones they use the same color scheme and switch properties as Cherry MX.  The only time I have typed on Cherry MX blues was with a Das Keyboard and they felt very very similar in terms of activation pressure, tactile bump, and general feel.  Though I will say the Azio is louder than the Das Keyboard, but I feel this is because of the physical design of the respective kayboards.  The Azio has the switch located as the same height of the top plate, so its basically out in the open, where as the Das Keyboard has the switches sunken below so the keycaps are only slightly raised from the top plate.  I could very much be wrong but it is my theory.  I have alos used an IBM model M for many years and computers, and no neither switch compares to that beast, though I recommend trying out Cherry Greens for a closer feel.
