ROG Falcata

Enjoys the Falcata more over time: easy switching between mouse space and split-typing comfort, perfect rapid trigger and actuation as a gaming keyboard, and the left half alone works great for couch gaming. Many USB4/TB4 cables and extenders worked for the link.

“The more I use it the more I enjoy it.”

Likes the Falcata so far, but the long link cable is 10–15cm too short; only USB4 L-adapters and a straight extender worked to widen it.

“I like the ROG Falcata so far, but it's frustrating that ASUS didn't make the long cable 10-15cm longer.”

Using the Falcata, the proprietary link cable (even the longer included one) wasn't long enough for a comfortable split until they found a USB4 Thunderbolt 4 extension that works.

“the link cable connecting the two halves is proprietary, and the longer of the two included cables still isn't long enough”

Upgrading from a Strix Flare II, the Falcata is the best gaming keyboard they've tried; the proprietary link cable and limited switch ecosystem are downsides, and they wouldn't pay the $420 MSRP (they paid $280).

“I love this keyboard. It’s easily the best gaming keyboard I’ve tried.”

Two months with the Falcata: a decent gaming board that's nice to type on tented, with wireless and half-board use, but Wooting is still the gold standard, the sound is average, and stock spacebars are hard to replace.

“I've had the board for about 2 months now.”
