The original ASUS ROG Keris was a pretty amazing mouse at the time. But suffered from literally nobody trying it out...
The Keris 2 looks to have been made to really go against some of the biggest manufacturers in gaming mice. But have they made mistakes on trying to copy some of the best?
Thanks to ASUS ROG for sending this mouse out to me.

The audio when you're in front of the desk is quiet af
scuffed setup :( if there's too much background noise the microphone picks it all up
just raise da volume pepelaugh
@DiamondLobbyReviews you can raise the gain and still have your background noise reduction
@@max10hoop Give him a break, he clearly stated he has limited intelligence.
Please pin this as a PSA. The switches here are hotswappable without soldering as long they are Raesha optical switches, you just pull the switches out with your fingers/nail (I just saw another video of someone doing this to this same mouse), so you can put your Razer or Pulsar switches on these. Razer optical are my favourite kind of Raesha opticals, very tactile so I would swap for those.
The one time theres a 4k dongle included, you treat it like shit 😂😂
You said that improved "DPI deviation" will provide more consistency This perplexed me a bit because the only definition of "dpi deviation" I know of in gaming mice is a unit-to-unit deviation. For example: If you get two XM1rs and set them both go 400 DPI, one of them may have a real DPI of 395 while the other one may have a DPI of 412
I'm just going by what they say in their press kit they sent. And also partially me over simplifying it to keep the section short. and also maybe me getting mixed up with polling rate stability
@@DiamondLobbyReviews Generally, what @d34thnote79 wrote is true. DPI deviation doesn't matter if it's consistent. However, there are scenarios where DPI may vary based on speed. That's the only thing I can really think of, especially once you get into the really high DPI range (which essentially nobody uses, but could have some theoretical benefit).
Not necessarily per unit deviation. DPI deviation usually mean how accurate their firmware handles the specified DPI (+/-). The distance of the mouse sensor is to the bottom plate of the mouse will have an influence on DPI, that's why changing mouse feet can affect the DPI of the same moue because your new skates might be thicker. That's why despite mice using the same sensor across many brands, there will always be deviation because of the distance of the sensor will vary per shell design, not necessarily because of unit by unit deviation though it is a factor but not that much. Good brands would see their 800 DPI is actually '821' on most of the units so they will probably bake some correction onto their firmware (like subtracting 2.5% across all DPI levels or something). The G Pro Superlight's DPI deviation is usually super accurate, 800 DPI is 800 (maybe +/- 2) while people always felt that Razer mice felt faster than specified which is common, Razer would have a DPI of 800 but actual is 832 for example.
I still have (& use) my original Keris since now I’ve got old man hands & ergo mice are superior in comfort but I’m a bit eager to try out the second iteration
Love your videos man. Cheers
Totally unrelated question: Do you still use the boulies chair?
I don't like the grip texture on the sides and it sound like the switches just don't meet expectations. Thanks for the review.
hello i have a glorious model o 2 and i have no idea how to put in a cps bc i play games that allow auto clicker so how do i put in a cps? just like how u can put in ms in glorious model o
New to the channel. What are some ergo mice where the "hump" height is 43-45mm? Been searching on and off for years to get something close to my old g500 shape wise. My current roccat is just too small (kone pro air).
try rakk kaptan wireless, it got 3395 sensor and 53 grams yeye

Hey, when op18k review
Awesome video, as usual. Grabbed a Sora V2 a few weeks ago after your review and gotta say you were spot on. Seeing the Finalmeme ULX permanently sitting the bin got me 😂
You did what through a sunroof?
sprime pm1 still the best ergo for me as of the moment
Great review! I really can’t stand these Raesha opticals. I returned multiple Razer mice and the Lamzu Thorn hoping they would improve over the years, but they just feel and sound like a toy and also do not age well. It has to be either Omron opticals or mechanicals for me and literally no one comes close to Vaxee when it comes to switches.
7:08 did the mouse kiss the keyboard? nice dent :D
they keyboard i'm currently using is a tank, so it wouldn't suprise me
Great job, Chris
Is the shape completely different to the first Keris?? Why not call it something else
hahaha dpi diviation is from mouse to mouse. how ill they do that?
we need mooooreeee
are you alvin and chipmunk producer ?
seems like it's trying to be a g703 superlight
if this goes $120 I'll buy it, but $160? No!
I bought redragon g49 for 28$ and it's working great... for now. 160$ is way to much. 100$ maybeeee...
To be fair it's almost the same as Xlite V3 medium.
ASUS software is a deciding factor for me -- deal breaker -- I CRINGE at the thought of having SteelSeries, Razer, Logitech any more SPECIFICALLY BECAUSE of their giant multi-gigabyte driver monoliths. Best case you get near-daily updates, that prevent you from using years-old hardware while software is updated with beta-grade features for hardware you'll never own. Worst-case, like with my SteelSeries (realtek) audio hardware, Windows Update even pushed unwanted third-party software to people's computers that cannot be uninstalled even after the hardware's gone. I own two Ninjutso mice and, despite its weird inability to be resized to not take up your entire screen, their software is easily the best out there: only what you need and nothing you don't. They even have a separate copy for each SKU. I LOVE THAT.
I will take a good feeling mechanical switch that might double click after a year over an optical switch that feels like crap from day one every time. I hope the main brands eventually move away from opticals.
I've talked to a few manufacturers and I don't think it's likely going to happen. Removing a reason for people to RMA a product is pretty massive for some companies and optical switches will help solve that.
@@DiamondLobbyReviews such a shame. I’ll always have my vaxee at least lol
Actually ☝️🤓. The pinout of the switches being the same isn’t really proving anything because all everyday parts have the same outside (in technological limits).
Excuse me please do a top 5 gaming mouse early 2024 I really want to buy one GUYS WE NEED LIKES ON THIS! THANK YOU
Considering that for the price of 2 ROG Keris's's... you can get a Steam Deck shows you how ridiculous gaming mice prices are nowadays.
Where can I get a steam deck this cheap?
@@antip0is0n cheapest lcd model is £300 and they go on sale every once in a while.
@@clockworkfrustrationyour comment is a bit misleading than 😅
@@antip0is0n The Keris II is £160 on Amazon right now. So in reality, a steam deck is cheaper than 2 Rog Keris II.
Look like you haven't peeled off the mouse skate plactic or maybe I am just schrizophrenic
They are a bit scuffed because I took them off taking the mouse apart.
Yay, 10000 more dpi, now I can incrementally adjust myself to 805 dpi
Yes, armoury crate is super garbage and i refuse to buy ROG products that require that trash being installed in my PC. Armoury Crate = software cancer.
I just want an ambidextrous mouse, thats super fast latency like the ultralight x or beast x, stable latency and just got optical switch and encoder everything. weight can be 60 to 80g even having more buttons like 2 dpi profile or scroll wheel infinity buttons😢 basically a g502 ambidextrous but with carbon or magnesium weight same buttons get it to 60grams it's perfect
Raesha is Razer which use bloody ones
I can see an unpaid cameo down in the trash.
I will never understand the appeal of this coating
It's for weight and not having holes in your mouse
Too big for me
