ASUS ROG Falchion (65%/ROG RX Mechanical/Wireless 2.4GHz + USB-C/Detachable Numpad/Per-Key RGB) Review
ASUS ROG Falchion 65% wireless mechanical gaming keyboard with detachable numpad module, ROG RX switches, touch panel, Aura Sync RGB.
The Falchion's signature trick is a magnetically detachable numpad module that doubles as a macro pad and touch-sensitive volume/media panel, letting players run a bare 65% for mouse-arm space during matches and reattach the numpad for spreadsheet work afterward. ASUS's own RX switches handle the actual typing feel.
Comparison to Alternatives
Against the Razer BlackWidow V3 Mini HyperSpeed, the Falchion's detachable numpad module is a unique differentiator neither the BlackWidow Mini nor most 65% boards offer. Compared with the Mountain Everest Max, both use modular add-on concepts, but the Falchion's numpad is wireless and touch-panel equipped while Everest Max's modules attach via magnetic pogo pins to a full-size base.
