Users Complain About
Best For
Portable gamers, hybrid work‑gaming users, Mac and Windows users who need a compact yet feature‑rich keyboard, minimalist desk setups, and travelers or digital nomads seeking lightweight, long‑lasting peripherals.
Not Ideal For
Users who require a full‑size layout, heavy macro‑heavy workflows, those who depend on Armoury Crate on macOS, or anyone who prefers PBT keycaps or an OLED display.
Expert Opinion
Professional reviewers laud the Falchion RX for its ultra‑low profile, smooth pre‑lubed switches, solid build and innovative tri‑mode connectivity, awarding it design and innovation honors. The main criticism centers on the heavyweight Armoury Crate software and the need to use the Fn layer for standard function keys.
What Users Say
Everyday users are overwhelmingly positive, repeatedly praising the quiet, smooth typing experience, compact footprint, touch panel and robust build. The dominant complaint is the Armoury Crate software, which many deem bloated, and occasional concerns about ABS keycap shine and Fn‑layer access to function keys.
Common Complaints
Armoury Crate software bloat, Fn‑layer requirement for F1–F12, ABS keycap shine over time, and lack of an OLED screen.
What People Are Saying
