Introduction
PC-Coolers is a Romanian distributor and retailer of various PC DIY products, including peripherals, such as keyboards and mice. In addition to working with other brands, the company has founded its own house brand called AQIRYS which we have
covered multiple times before on TechPowerUp, including cases and mice. My first experience with the brand came with the
AQIRYS Aludra TKL keyboard which has since been updated, we'll take a separate look at the newer Aludra in due time. Today we examine another keyboard and thanks to AQIRYS for providing a review sample to TechPowerUp!
The AQIRYS brand logo is in the shape of a galaxy, and most AQIRYS products are named after stars as was the case
with the Aludra before. The subject of today's review is called the ADARA, which would be
the brightest star in the visible sky if you consider the UV spectrum. No surprise then that this keyboard features rich RGB lighting for the various keys on this 1800 form factor in addition to a lit-up acrylic logo insert on the top right corner. AQIRYS is promising a gasket mount structure here in addition to various other premium features at a reasonable price so let's put the ADARA to the test in our review which begins with a look at the product specifications in the table below.
