Benchmark Reviews posted a review on the Mad Catz S.T.R.I.K.E. 5 OLED EYE Gaming Keyboard



Mad Catz released their new STRIKE 7 keyboard two months back, representing the high end model of their new cyborg series keyboards. Like the Cyborg RAT 9/7/5/3 mice, the STRIKE 5 is now released. It's more affordable, and just as promising. Equipped with the same keyboard and customization setup, the STRIKE 5 is equipped with the same power with the only difference being the auxiliary panel. Instead of the VENOM touchscreen which came with 12 apps, the STRIKE 5 comes with a simplified OLED EYE display. For those looking for a cheaper alternative to the STRIKE 7, Benchmark Reviews will analyze the STRIKE 5 to see if it holds up.

The STRIKE 5 and STRIKE 7 are nearly identical from a design standpoint, having the same slick look and feel. At $199.99, it's $100 cheaper then its elder brother. The same basic features come for both keyboards. Each come with 7 modular pieces that can be customized as you please, including 2 keyboard pieces, 1 macro add-on, 3 palm rests, and the VENOM/EYE panel.
