The Atore Mechanical Keyboard: A Review
As I began to examine the Atore mechanical keyboard, my initial thoughts were about its design and build quality. The keyboard's form factor is actually quite similar to my current Mouse from Logitech, which made it an interesting comparison. However, with my experience of owning a performance MX for so long, I was eager to see how this new keyboard would stack up against its predecessor. One thing that immediately caught my attention was the unique naming convention used by the manufacturer, which might be a bit unconventional but added to the overall sleek and minimalist design of the keyboard.
The packaging for the Atore mechanical keyboard is simple yet effective. On top of the box, I found a card with some information about the product, followed by the keyboard itself, and finally, underneath, there were a few additional items such as a braided cable and a PS2 adapter. The detachable nature of the cable was a welcome feature, allowing users to customize their setup according to their preferences. Additionally, having a standard mini USB port made it easy to connect the keyboard to various devices without having to deal with lengthy cables.
The Cherry MX Brown switches used in this keyboard were another notable aspect that I had not tried before in my everyday use. As someone who has never owned a keyboard with these switches, I was excited to see how they would perform under different conditions. The overall build quality of the keyboard felt exceptionally solid and sturdy, thanks to its compact design and well-crafted materials. Moreover, the understated and sleek design would make it suitable for various environments such as gaming setups, studio spaces, video editing stations, or content creation areas.
One aspect that stood out was the keyboard's subtle color scheme, which gave it a sophisticated look without being too flashy. The overall build quality of the keyboard left me impressed, especially when compared to the more gaudy designs commonly found in gaming keyboards. As someone who values understated and simple design, this keyboard seemed like an excellent fit for my needs.
The Atore mechanical keyboard is indeed an interesting product that seems to be gaining attention due to its unique features and build quality. Given the manufacturer's location and assembly process, it's clear that they have taken steps to ensure a high level of quality in their products. As I move forward with testing this keyboard, I'll provide you all with my thoughts on how it performs under different conditions.
Moving on to my next experience, I was excited to test out the Atore mouse alongside my Performance MX from Logitech. While my Performance MX has been a reliable and trusted companion for quite some time now, the form factor of this new keyboard made me wonder if it might be a potential alternative. The Atore mouse features a unique design that seems promising, with a compact shape and familiar feel to its surface. As I continue testing both the keyboard and the mouse, I'll provide you all with my feedback on which one has won me over.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enokay what is up folks we are back with another video you guys voted on this one I posted a picture on Instagram Facebook and Twitter and I asked you guys what you wanted to see unboxed next I put a few things on the table spread out and you requested these items right here that are in front of me if you want to participate in these kinds of votes in the future make sure to be following me on Instagram Facebook and Twitter Twi I'll put the links down in the description of this video so what are we looking at today we're looking at some products from a new company at least new to me called Phoenix and they make high-end computer peripherals we have a mouse from them this is called the Nita as you can see here on the side of the packaging and everything is very simplistic in terms of how this is delivered and how it is presented but the main attraction is of course the device itself they they have apparently put a lot of attention to detail into the design as well as the materials so I'll pull the mouse out first underneath is a keyboard which I think I'm a little bit more excited for uh only because I peaked at it and it has a really cool finish to it it also is mechanical and it has Cherry MX Brown switches which I don't have a keyboard with those switches in them currently so those will be cool to try out it's also a fairly large Mouse which I like I'm not a big fan of tiny little mice where you have to claw your hand up I mean if you did want to do that with this particular Mouse you could but if you want to lay your entire Palm on there that's very easy to do there's a little bit of protective covering here I'll remove as well as a logo there that says n and then uh a screen all of the controls are right on the unit there's no special software that you need to install no extra blow the materials are also very very smooth and look like they should be resistant to fingerprints I mean obviously I don't know at this point but I'm putting my fingers on there and I can't seem to bring up any fingerprints so that's a good thing you obviously have some different buttons here for different functionality there's a scroll wheel uh two buttons on the side over here I believe these are shoulder buttons thumb buttons I don't know whatever you want to call them convenient for everything you do on your computer web browsing Etc and they're really nice and clicky as well there is Teflon covering on the bottom so it slides very smoth smoothly there's also replacement pads over here by the looks of it so you're going to be good to go in the future let's take out the paperwork and just read a little bit more detailed information on the N the passion Never Dies it is reborn some intense copy on this little piece of paper you can begin gaming with your Phoenix n right out of the box in addition to Hardware improvements the 2014 n has been re-engineered to be completely driverless with all functions able to be performed directly from the mouse so that's like I said earlier no need for separate software I'm a huge fan of that please refer to your personal support manager's contact information on this card for any support you may require lastly be sure to register your mouse that's something that's also unique to the Phoenix brand with a purchase of one of their peripherals you actually get an account manager somebody that you can call directly if you have any issues with your device that's really nice on the bottom here you have the Phoenix logo which is cut out obviously is going to light up as well this thing feels very comfortable to hold you really just want to use it and as I said it's it's big which is good something interesting too that you don't see all the time over here the uh extension for your middle finger is actually a little bit longer than the extension for the index finger and it kind of makes sense even though I haven't seen it before and it doesn't exist on my current Mouse if you take a look at your hand which is your longest finger your middle finger so in this particular case it's going to extend a little bit more naturally into that location anyways at this point looking very promising I will be uh testing it out against my performance MX from Logitech you guys know I'm a big fan of that and seeing how it Stacks up now let's move on to the keyboard here aut r e so they've really gone Fancy with the naming conventions here you can maybe see the name there I don't know if it can pick up the light there you can see it a little bit aour I will open this baby up here once again very simple packaging so on top here we have a card once again inside we have the keyboard and then underneath there's a couple of different items here another braided cable which is common for a mouse but not so common for a keyboard This does have a detachable cable which is cool so if you need a long cable you've got it if you need a short Port cable you've got it you can use any standard mini USB which is good if you have say a USB on your screen that you want to connect to and it's really close then you don't have to have this huge cable hanging out and and trying to manage it Etc instead just go get a smaller mini USB which everybody has or a lot of people have they have also included a PS2 adapter not too many people using these anymore well I shouldn't say that I mean there's still people using these for various reasons but in my particular case I won't be using this but you've got it as I said earlier in this video this is featuring the Cherry MX Brown switches I have never tried these switches before at least in everyday use like I've never owned a keyboard with these switches and this keyboard is pretty damn cool looking this this I'm pumped up about look how stealth that looks right there guys so it's got this like Sheen to it this silver kind of coloring and Sheen wow and it feels really nice as well you have some LEDs over here the whole thing feels insanely solid very very solid very pretty to look at and a change from all of the standard black or crazy looking gaming keyboards that are out there that are shiny and glossy this one is understated it could exist in a gaming environment but just as easily it could exist in a studio environment a Content creation environment a video editing environment Etc without looking out of place your mini USB port in that location which makes sense and as I said before that's removable on the bottom we have our serial number designed by Phoenix in California assembled in Taiwan you have some feet on here to make sure everything stays sturdy and not too many screw points that is just a very simplistic and beautiful keyboard it sounds strange to see me get so excited or to hear me get so excited about a keyboard but I I just like understated and simple design and that's what this one has to go with legitimate mechanical key switch is very popular Cherry MX Brown so there you have it guys the atore mechanical keyboard from Phoenix big fan of this haven't even used it yet but I can tell right away that I'm going to enjoy having this in my setup now the mouse is probably going to be tougher switch for me because I am so into the performance MX and I've been using it for so long but I can tell right away that the form factor of this one is very similar so if any Mouse had a chance at changing my mind this one might very well be it also my performance MX is getting a little bit old and the battery isn't holding up as well so it essentially is a Wired Mouse at this point so who knows maybe this will become my mouse to match this wonderful new keyboard over here very impressive stuff from a new company and I'm happy to share these new products with you guys here on onbox
