Reviews of the Ideazon Merc Gaming Keyboard

    CNET Review

    January 2, 2007

    The Good: Separate game pad area isolates keys in a game-friendly design, and robust customization software lets you tweak the key mapping as much as you want.

    The Bad: Keys feel too light to the touch without enough tactile response; nonstandard number key layout is hard to get used to; game pad keys are hard to differentiate without looking.

    The Bottom Line: The Ideazon Merc Gaming Keyboard brings some innovation to the typical game keyboard by creating a separate cluster of game keys in a supposedly easier-to-use layout. We didn't take a shine to the game pad, though, and in general, the Merc's response wasn't as tight as we hoped for. It's cheap though, and its software is powerful. Those features add value, just don't expect the Merc to help you win any Quake tournaments.

    Review Summary: The Ideazon MERC is a decent gaming keyboard that functions well for gaming that falls short when it comes to daily use. At the end of the day the MERC is recommended for gaming, but typists will want a second keyboard for daily use.
