It is very pricey, however, and the lack of any kind of wrist rest is a curious omission. That makes it an outlier in a field full of very similar-looking gaming accessories, but the stylish look and speedy typing on these clicky keys make the Logitech G915 Lightspeed a great pick-particularly for those who will actually use it for work and everyday use. While it keeps the vibrant rainbow of lighting animations seen on most contemporaries, this high-end option is super-slim and features low-profile keys that hit a sweet spot between traditional keyboards and laptop keys. Most premium gaming keyboards are big, beastly devices-but not the Logitech G915 Lightspeed Wireless RGB Mechanical Gaming Keyboard. Keep reading for our full product review. It’s not necessarily my style in terms of being so large, but the switches are very good.We purchased the Logitech G915 Lightspeed Wireless Gaming Keyboard so our expert reviewer could thoroughly test and assess it. Overall though, I am pleased with this keyboard. It’s kind of like a Catch-22, but hopefully more custom key caps will be available in the market, and then you can swap these out in case they break. And so it really comes down to whether or not you want such a low profile keyboard that is also massive. The linear switch I feel should have a bit more travel distance for my game style, but it’s nice to have all three flavors available. The clicky point is soft, but it’s very pronounced, while the Browns feel really nice as well. The Clicky one in particular feels like a softer Razer green switch. In terms of the switches, I love the Tactile and the Clicky for gaming. I wish that was rounded instead of the sidelines being rounded. The only thing that I don’t like about the frame are the really sharp corners because of the aluminum frame and where it meets the plastic frame. I do appreciate the Game Mode and disabling certain keys outside of your Windows key. And the volume wheel, this thing just doesn’t have any tactility to it and there’s that weird lag in Windows. My only complaint here would be the key cap legs where one of them broke and I don’t know how, I was very gentle with it and the replacements are not easily found. I don’t appreciate the large form factor, I’d like it to be smaller to compliment the whole compact nature of it, but that’s just my bias. In terms of the frame, the switches, the key caps. If that happens to you, if you are replacing key caps or like removing them for cleaning or something, you can call Logitech Support and they will send out replacement keys that you can purchase yourself.Īnd so the keyboard is a really good low profile example in the market. Interestingly, Logitech tells me they’ve never had one break in their own internal testing, so that’s kind of interesting. I heard a snap and unfortunately the N key is now super wobbly and has no stability whatsoever without one of the legs on it. Unfortunately I broke one of the legs on the key cap when I was inserting it back into the switch very gently. The issue with the key caps however is that they’re almost proprietary and finding replacements is not easy, especially right now with this whole early movement of low profile keyboards and the switches in particular. However, the second characters are not shine through, therefore they’re left blank, which is kind of nice because there is no gradient in the illumination. The main keys are shine through and it looks beautiful because the LED that is right underneath it. And I am hoping that we’ll see a low-profile TKL version of this, but right now full-size makes sense in terms of what Logitech is selling and what people are requesting. So it makes sense for them to focus on larger boards that people will actually buy instead of catering towards the really loud minority that want TKL, including myself. And also an interesting fact, according to Logitech, the sales for full-sized keyboards represent 90% of all sales compared to 10% for TKL models. In one of our Twitter polls, as you can see above, the majority of people prefer still full-sized gaming keyboards for gaming. Keyboards: Bigger the Betterĭespite my favoritism towards TKL boards – this thing is absolutely massive, and I don’t like this form factor – I do acknowledge that many people do. They have done a lot of things right with this keyboard. I feel like Logitech is setting the new standard for what the low profile keyboard should be in terms of the base, in terms of the switches, and the key caps.
