What is the Acer Predator Aethon 500 The Acer Predator Aethon 500 isn't just a glitz-and-glam gaming keyboard. As well as RGB lighting, it also combines a decent typing experience that delivers just enough accuracy to satisfy your average gamer. There's a...

Abstract: The Predator Aethon 500 is a full-size mechanical keyboard with clicky switches, dedicated macro and media controls and RGB backlighting. This keyboard costs $180 in the US – and even more in the UK – so does it have what it takes to stand against the bes...
Well-constructed and durable-feeling, Macro keys, Volume roller is easy to find and adjust
Keys use two different typefaces for some reason, Volume roller sticks awkwardly out from the side of the keyboard, Very pricey, considering it uses Kailh Blue switches

Tactile, clicky key switches good for typing and gaming, Customizable RGB lighting, N-key rollover, Useful software,

The price is high, but Acer's Predator Aethon 500 mechanical gaming keyboard may find an audience with typists and gamers alike who prefer the tactile and clicky feel of Kailh Blue switches over those made by Cherry...
Good game performance, Discrete media keys, Macro keys and profile button
Strange, uneven design, Clunky software, Falls short of similarly priced competitors
If Acer had knocked a few dozen dollars off the Aethon 500's price, I could see it as a worthwhile recommendation for gamers who want a premium-ish experience without paying full price. But I cannot think of a viable reason to spend $180 on this good-enou...
