Steelseries Apex Pro (2019) vs Azio KB505U (2012)

The Steelseries Apex Pro (2019) is one of the very best products at its price point and should be considered by anyone willing to spend around $170 on a Wired Keyboard.

The Azio KB505U (2012), on the other hand, is mediocre at its $29 asking price and should be avoided by the majority of people. If you're interested in some alternatives at its price, we suggest looking at some better options in the $55 range.

The Steelseries Apex Pro (2019) hasn't managed to get enough recognition from sources that do high-quality hands-on testing and therefore didn't make it into any relevant roundups. That, by itself, makes it difficult to recommend.

Taking a look at the Azio KB505U (2012), we found that it hasn't managed to perform well enough to earn a spot in any Wired Keyboard roundups done by sources that conduct their own, high-quality, hands-on testing. That alone makes it difficult to recommend.

As a last step, we wanted to do a head-to-head Steelseries Apex Pro (2019) vs. Azio KB505U (2012) comparison of their review performance but, unfortunately, weren't able to find any review ratings on either product.
