What a pleasure!

This is my first mechanical keyboard and I am not disappointed at all. The quality is there and the GX Browns are perfect. The RGB is very bright and easily configurable with the associated software. I can only recommend it!

A shame

I bought this keyboard in January following a faulty G413, mainly due to the lack of choice linked to the sanitary circumstances which limited the import.I have been using this keyboard since January due to a faulty G413, mainly due to a lack of choice due to health reasons that limit the import... And what a big mistake, it is now May and following a first problem with a mechanical switch that occurred one month after the purchase (in February), I find myself with yet another switch problem, 3 months after the first change in the after sales service... So we will have 3 keyboards in less than 6 months and it is a shame when you know what price it is sold for and in what range it is in the brand catalogue.I'm ending the warranty on this product, and that will be the end of Logitech keyboards, this brand is only good for comm. and marketing, making nice products that attract the eye, but that have nothing to offer its users.I know that for the LDLC group, Logitech must be a brand that allows to make good sales, I just dream of the day when a serious competitor, will give you enough room to manoeuvre, because it does not deserve to be marketed in any case for its keyboards, when an introduction of Filco products that have no distributors in France.

        Nothing to say

        I've been using this keyboard every day for work and leisure for two years now.
        I'm very happy with it, it's very pleasant to use, the software is easy to use and allows a lot of configuration. Maintenance is fairly easy because of its design. No particular problems except for one key whose green LED is dead (I always have the other colours), but that's not really a problem.

        At the top

        Very good keyboard, responsive and robust. Apart from the slightly high price, it still deserves top marks. The wrist rest is an added bonus.

        Excellent feel but a few problems

        The touch is really excellent and the palm rest has become indispensable to me. What's more, it's separate from the keyboard, so you can use it even when changing keyboards :D

        WEAR
        I have fingernails and the simple act of writing has worn away the black paint on some of the keys. Given that the keyboard is backlit, it makes for some pretty ugly streaks of light that can make it difficult to read the keys.

        KEYS
        The writing is 'reversed' compared to usual. The & é " '.... are above the 1 2 3 4...
        It's a stupid thing to do, but when all the other keyboards are upside down, it looks a bit odd.

        Very disappointed by the product

        I bought this keyboard as a replacement for another mechanical keyboard, and was very quickly disappointed. There are several reasons for this, the first being that the numbers above azerty and the special characters at the bottom right are not backlit (this was really so expensive to do, bearing in mind that the rest of the keys are backlit). Secondly, and even more annoyingly, it's very common for a key to be pressed 2 times in a row, without this being intended (not to mention the anti-ghosting feature, which is only present on the description). And lastly, I've had the keyboard since 22/12/2021 and I've got the coating on the S key which is half gone.

        The only good thing about the keyboard is that the handle rest with memory foam is a pleasure.

        Clearly, in view of its faults, this keyboard doesn't live up to its price.

        Very good, but

        I received it very quickly.
        Very satisfied, Logitech keyboard always on top! I'm very pleased with the quality of the product. I'm very pleased with the quality of the product.
        The only downside is that it doesn't say in the description and I couldn't find the answer in the box either, the USB cord is split into 2, one to connect the keyboard to the PC, and the other a mystery.
        But it's still worth 5 stars I think.

        Almost perfect

        The keyboard is very good, I love Logitech for their product, however, the "+" button on the right of the numeric keypad only works if you press it very very hard (switch problem probably)...

        Nice and good keyboard, coupled with my G703 mouse and my G935 headset the rendering and the RGB management is excellent.

        Well received but...

        I've been using this keyboard for a while now and it's a good one. I'm not sure if it's a good one or not, but it's a good one. I'm a bit disappointed with the quality of logitech which is supposed to be a reference range, hence my 2 stars.

        The "brown" keys are top notch (which makes it super responsive). very nice design. the "cable pass" under the keyboard is practical. i recommend.

        Keys are erased

        I bought a keyboard in August 2021 and found that the keys on my keyboard were fading away over the days. The "Q" key is completely erased leaving the swtich underneath. The letters A-Z-Q-S are affected and I would like to point out that I do not use the keyboard extensively. I am disappointed with the quality for a product of this range and price. I've had a number of keyboards that are much cheaper but are still intact and functional after several years of use...

        Nice keyboard, pleasant

        The keyboard is very nice, customisable but it's not really my thing even if I admit that the key lighting makes it more comfortable to use in my office with soft colours. I've been waiting for the order but it was worth it considering the final price.

        Very good keyboard

        Very good keyboard with a finish to match its price. The extra keys provided are easy to install. It is not too noisy and the typing is pleasant. The only downside is that the wrist rest tends not to stay in place as it is not magnetised to the keyboard.

        Excellent!

        I'm not sure about the brown switch, and even more so about the logitech switch, but in the end I recognized it very well, even coming from a cherry mx red keyboard!

        I've never been disappointed with Logitech as long as you pay the price.

        Toy

        I chose this model because of its apparent sobriety. On the positive side, the keystroke is pretty good, although this is quite subjective. The palm rest is welcome and very well made. I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use the keyboard or not, but it's a good idea to use the keyboard and not to use it. So I plugged in the keyboard, it lit up, everything was fine. Then, I have to install the latest version of the G-Hub (problems with my G502 but that's life), which in my opinion is a very rotten software. The first thing that really hurts me is that there is no on/off indicator for the NumLock, nor for the ScrollLock (less annoying), which immediately makes me laugh a lot less.Then, for the price, I would have preferred to have dedicated macro keys, but I bought it knowingly, thinking that the "FN" key would be used as a switch for the F1-F12 keys. But it doesn't. I should have known better. The "FN" key only controls the special functions (retro illumination, media keys, gaming mode, ...). Once in game, you can choose either a macro or your F1-F12 key. This may be enough for some games, but not for all, and in any case, as far as I'm concerned, I prefer that the F1 key remains the F1 key, in all circumstances and whatever the profile loaded in the keyboard, unless I explicitly ask it to do something else.I may be stupid or lazy, but as long as there is no indicator of the active profile on the keyboard, I don't want to have to constantly check the current profile, especially given the numerous bugs that come with G-Hub. I'll keep this one and I'll see in a few weeks if I get used to it or if I send it back.

        Overall satisfied

        The keyboard is nice, I give it 9/10 because of the absence of an LED to indicate the status of the "verr-num" key because it is still practical. I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use the keyboard or not, but I'm sure it's a good idea to use the keyboard. I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use the phone in the same way as the others, but it's a good idea to use the phone in the same way as the others.

        Very good quality keyboard, but very limited by the back-lighting of the keys

        This is a very good quality, no-frills mechanical keyboard. The non-attached palm rest is a real plus as it allows you to position the keyboard in the most comfortable way. However, the keyboard's biggest flaw is its back-lighting of the number and symbol keys. Indeed, contrary to what the pictures on the website show, only the symbols are clear and not the numbers or the usual symbols like the dot or the slash. In the end, one is quickly lost and one is obliged to put a light on when it is dark in the room. If it wasn't for this major flaw, I would have gladly given this keyboard a 10.

        Nothing to complain about!

        I've been using it for a few weeks now and I have nothing to complain about, whether it's the touchscreen, the RGB backlighting, the G Hub software, the palm rest, the size and weight of the keyboard, all good. The only drawback I can find is the USB2 port which is difficult to insert, you have to force it.

        Almost perfect

        I'm very happy with the product after a few weeks of testing: Good keyboard feel, quiet sound, good quality, good wrist rest. Only positive things. The 9/10 because the wrist rest is not fixed to the keyboard and can sometimes move, which is not very pleasant at times. It's a handful! Old keyboard: Razer chroma blackwidow, 7 years of good and loyal service. I give my chance to Logitech who seems to do the job well! I recommend :)

        Very happy with this keyboard

        I'm very happy with this purchase, which is combined with a Logitech G903, so I'm running both devices through the same software.What I would have liked to see on the product: a way to fix the wrist rest, even if it stays in place and doesn't slide around, it's nice to have the keyboard in two parts. I would have liked to see a way to attach the wrist rest, even though it stays in place and doesn't slide around, it's nice to have the keyboard in two parts, and also a way to control the sound more conveniently.

        I am very happy with the keyboard! As I'm not an expert, I can't say much about it, but I find the typing feel very pleasant. The Logitech software (Logitech G Hub) that allows you to customise the keyboard's backlighting is very complete. It is also good to know that this keyboard requires 2 USB ports.

        Excellent

        The keyboard is very easy to use, both for office use and for gaming. The product is very well finished, the removable wrist rest is comfortable.The possibilities of customizing the keyboard are endless with Logitech G HUB: as much in terms of aesthetics with the backlighting, as in terms of macros.The only small blemish I got: some of the keys are not entirely clear. It's not really annoying in daylight, but as soon as the room starts to get dark, these non-lighted parts become difficult or impossible to distinguish.
