This Mionix Avior is the first time we’ve seen anything other than an ergonomic right-handed shape from Mionix. It’s ambidextrous and pretty much dead sexy.

The GAMDIAS HERMES gaming keyboard may be one of the most unique products we’ve had a chance to take a look at. Not just another mechanical gaming keyboard. Wow.
