Gamers are an interesting lot. Some of them are even willing to starve when it comes to saving up for the latest gaming peripherals, to make sure that they are able up the ante when it comes to the next fragging session. I know this to be true, as back in my poor student days (and this is not to say I am filthy rich right now), I used to skip meals just so I can get better in a particular game, not to mention save up for the next Razer mouse that is announced. Having said that, a good keyboard is also an essential part of any gamer’s repertoire, and the Feenix Autore could very well fit the bill for those who are aiming for something higher end than normal.
The Feenix Autore is a keyboard which was specially designed after being inspired by Stanley Kubrick’s monolith in 2001: A Space Odyssey. In fact, at first glance, the Feenix Autore might not even look like a gaming keyboard as the world knows it – there aren’t any fancy lines and designs which “shouts” to the viewer. Rather, the Autore comes across as a minimalist tool which will be able to meet the needs of aggressive gamers as well as typists. The lightweight keycaps with cherry MX Brown switches will be able to deliver an effortless click and tactile response, while Feenix font and aluminum coating ensures that the keyboard’s surface remains elegant and durable most of the time. There is also a subtle upward angle that delivers optimal wrist comfort, while a gold metal plate which will run through the length of the chassis offers an unprecedented level of durability.
The Feenix Autore would also boast of a HAL-approved gold plated modular mini USB to USB connection alongside an optional PS/2 adapter for older machines. It has a double Polyurethane layer thrown into the mix to make sure it remains safe and sound against spills and beverage damage. The entire keyboard would retail for $163 in case you are interested.

When it comes to gaming peripherals, there is quite a fair number of companies who have been churning out quality devices from time to time. Feenix is not exactly one of the more famous players out there, but that does not mean that they are unable to deliver the kind of reliability and performance that gamers love to have. Ashkon Shayani, Creative Director, shared, “Everything in gaming had always looked exactly the same; it was black with loud red or green lights around it. There was no simplicity or elegance to it. Our main goals at Feenix are design and quality. Our instruments deliver the best gaming experience possible and sleek designs that fit right into any home or office.”
The 2014 Nascita’s form factor is said to deliver a perfect ergonomic feel, which is a rather bold claim. After all, when it comes to holding a mouse, there are different ways of doing so, and gamers will tell you that they tend to fall into one of these three categories – palm, claw, or semi-claw gamer. However, the 2014 Nascita touts that it will be able to cater to all three types of gamers without missing a beat. The mouse itself will be 100% driverless, where gamers are able to perform hardware adjustments without having to make use of unnecessary software. Feenix has made use of the latest chipsets and sensor technologies for a 8200 dpi laser engine to deliver seamless accuracy and tracking.
There is also the state of the art Omron switches that paves the way for swift clicking with a 10 million click lifetime, while its in-mouse LCD technology lets gamers read information and are able to accurately adjust DPI on the fly. Just in case you happen to have sweaty palms during a fierce shoot-out, the mouse’s anti-sweat and anti-slip surface material will ensure you have a comfortable feel always.
All of the above can be yours for $97 if you are interested in the 2014 Nascita gaming mouse from Feenix.
