The editors didn't like
The magnetic wrist rest needs a stronger magnet
Stock keycaps are mediocre at best and will wear out sooner rather than later
AIMO still relies too much on external control and the need for more ROCCAT peripherals
The keyboard is larger than it has to be
And yet lighter than average
Making for some
No dedicated macro keys
No USB or audio pass-through
Chintzy wrist rest
No dedicated media keys
Ergonomics take some getting used to
Tedious software
High price
Sub-par wristrest
Custom keycaps may not be compatible with Titan switches
Attracts a lot of attention…I suppose the lights DO turn off (…but why would you??)
There are still improvements Roccat could make going forward, but the Titan switch and accompanying half-height keycaps are the Vulcan 120 Aimo's primary experiment, and that aspect is a resounding success. As I said, this is the first time the Cherry-sty...
After a few weeks of regular use, I'm pretty sold on Roccat's Titan switches. It doesn't feel quite as snappy or premium to use as Razer's opto-mechanical Huntsman, and it certainly isn't as fun to use as the X-BOW is. Regardless, Roccat's Vulcan 120 migh...

Low-profile keycaps, Sturdy build quality, Dedicated media keys
Hard plastic wristrest, No dedicated macro keys, Lacks USB pass-through
All of which makes the Vulcan 120 Aimo pretty decent value. It's only £6 more than the regular-size HyperX keyboard and £25 cheaper than its main rival from Corsair and, for that money, you're getting a keyboard that both performs well and looks fantastic...
Stunning design and an abundance of quality RGB-ness, Comfortable typing experience after you get used to the low wrist rest, Very useful gaming features
Some users will be unhappy with the amount of light-bleed, Low-profile wrist rest could prove to be uncomfortable at the start
Using the Vulcan 120 for the past few weeks have certainly been interesting. The low-profile design might be familiar to some of you, but with full-sized switches placed on top of the backplate it's more the illusion of being low profile with the keys bei...

Roccat's Titan switches are superb, Anodised aluminium finish is lush, Very bright Aimo lighting engine, Excellent supporting Swarm software

It's an expensive keyboard, but find me any brands flagship model that isn't. The price is competitive when you dial down into the level of features on offer. If you want something that's every bit as good as the competition, but does things a little bit...

ROCCAT have brought to market a capable, good looking keyboard with a proper price tag to go with it, though the question is, does it beat the competition?Firstly, the ROCCAT Titan keyswitch feels great for typing and gaming, helped along by the keyboard'...
