Logitech G915 TKL Tenkeyless Lightspeed Wireless RGB Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, Low Profile Switch Options, Lightsync RGB, Advanced Wireless and Bluetooth Support - Tactile, White

The secondary characters dont light up! This is a terrible design flaw that I dont understand and it drives me crazy. I absolutely love the feel of these low profile, tactile keys. However, the lack of fully lit keys and the G keys, which are unnecessary and get in the way, made me swap this keyboard out for a corsair k70. Logitech, if you read this, please make an updated version of this keyboard without the g keys and better lighting!

I love this keyboard, i love led, but why in the hell are none of the secondary characters like under the numbers lit up? the numbers are lit up but not the characters they share a key with? you go through all the trouble to light the key up but leave them out? whats the point of going LED if your not going to light everything. At first i didnt think it would bother me but when i got the lights off in my room you cant even see the secondary keys. i just think that was massively overlooked. Your already lighting up the character on the same key so why not do the entire key? its actually really annoying, i love the keyboard otherwise but i just have to say that makes absolutely no sense to me if your going through the trouble of making a light keyboard but leave those important symbols out. my old logitech didnt have that issue i didnt even think it was something i had to worry about buying a LED keyboard. Anyway buyers beware if you are on your computer in a dim or dark room you will have serious trouble seeing the secondary characters.

This is my first ever mechanical keyboard I have spent significant money on. With that said Pros: - Lightweight, yet keyboard feet keep it from sliding across the desk. Speaking of, the feet are very nice, and get a solid angle for typing - Switches: Logitech switches are very nice (I got Linear switch model). Switches are a bit louder than I had anticipated, but are smooth, no issues of debouncing or misinputs (you can tell when key is pressed or not, never misstype again!). The removal of misinputs or misstyping is super nice for software development; things like VIM commands and REGEX can get all messed up by one extra character you didnt see. - Keystroke press force: Force to press key down is firm, but is solid, and gives tactile feedback on press. - LEDS: Lights have tons of cool features, and Logitech G Suite opens up light controller to your desire. Would love to see Logitech add an API for lighting controller. Would be super cool! - Accessory buttons: Macro keys are not inconvenient, I have seen many comments about hitting G5 in attempt to hit control. This has happened 1 time, but I mean 1 time in a week of typing really isnt that bad. There are 15 macro keys (5 * 3 profiles), and scripts can be written to run from any macro which is super cool (Say you wanted a key to open ETrade or Robinhood, you can do that). Volume knob is extremely big, easy to get to, without accidentally pressing it above the numpad. Very high quality metallic volume knob. Profile buttons, quick macro button, gamer mode, brightness, and media control buttons all very nice with conditioned rubber tops for premium feel. Cons: - Accessory buttons: Actual switching element of ACCESSORY BUTTONS (NOT KEYBOARD KEYS) is a little iffy. Does not give nice responsive press, which can be gotten from buttons as cheap as 0.10$, kind of a bummer. - Caps / Num Lock / Profile button LEDS: Non customizable white LED. Not ugly, but doesnt go with the theme. Same with the Profile Buttons, except theyre yellow, not white. - BIGGEST CON: No backlight on the symbols. These are extremely important for software development, doing things like: Python comments, Perl/Bash scripting, C/C++ programming, anything with high dependency on symbol input, is fairly annoying to do at night with this keyboard. Obviously you can remember which symbol is associated with each number (The numbers are lit), but this is a pain in the arse, and for 170$ it shouldnt be a problem. Overall, thats my opinion on the keyboard. Its not bad by any means, but I can see why some people are let down. Build quality is superb, packaging is a bit lacking (I can see how people might need RND), appeal is as nice as pictures, and actual keyboard functionality gets 8/10. Changing profile LEDS and caps/num lock LEDS to be RGB, and inclusion of backlit symbols give this keyboard a 10/10. Cumulative Rating: 8.8/10.

The only complaints i can levy against it is that its actually kind of heavy, i sometimes need to replug the dongle after waking my computer and i wish the risers had 2 levels to them. Beyond that it works like a dream and MAKES my couch-gaming setup.

TLDR: Wait for a sale or price drop unless you just need a wireless keyboard right now. Other than the price, its a solid keyboard. Pros: - Wireless capabilities - Bluetooth connectivity - Low profile (subjective) - Metal Body - Clean LED lighting - Dedicated media controls and audio wheel (the wheel feels great) - Immediate wakeup from inactivity Cons: - ABS keycaps - Price - Rattly Stabilizers (not too bad, probably wouldnt bother most) - Doesnt use cherry stems (no chance of custom keycaps) Thoughts: This is a really nice keyboard, but what keeps it from being great is the price. Starting with the keycaps, I dont know why Logitech still hasnt started using PBT yet. My copy has 16 keys with ever so slightly chipped bits that lets the lighting shine through. Luckily, theyre small enough that I have to deliberately look for them to notice, but still that shouldnt be an issue on a +$200 keyboard. On top of that, the switches are a unique design that doesnt use cherry stems, so you cant just throw on a different set of keycaps. I mentioned the stabilizers being rattly, but that could be me nitpicking from being used to keyboards that go the extra mile for that sort of thing. Theyre really not awful. Make no mistake, this keyboard doesnt have a custom feel. It feels very much like a production board which is to be expected, but that price rapidly approaches custom pricing. What youre paying for here is the wireless capability which is very nice, and a sleek look. Using it wireless is as easy as plugging in the dongle and switching on the board. Nothing to it. Bluetooth pairing is also very easy. Press the bluetooth button, turn on your device, set it to search for connections, type in the code, press enter. Switching between the lightspeed connection and bluetooth is very quick. Theres very little delay in the transition. This next bit is subjective, but I do really like the brushed aluminum implementation of the body. It looks really sleek and works with my setup nicely. The dedicated media controls are always welcome, especially the volume wheel. It operates VERY smoothly with virtually no side to side movement. I have to actually move it side to side to feel any movement, but you will never feel this with normal use. From a gamer standpoint, I really like the low profile keys and shorter travel distance. I never really saw the point in speed switches that have super high actuation points since you tend to bottom out anyway. A physically shorter key press is easier to perceive when needing to make quick presses. Conclusion: For most, Id say to wait for a sale or price drop. If you have a need or want for wireless and bluetooth capabilities in a keyboard, it does both flawlessly. The overall build quality is nice, but I wish PBT keycaps were an option. If the price were lower, Id easily recommend this as a 4 or 5 star, but any shortcomings are multiplied by the pricing.

I gave this product 4 starts overall, because it does the job its supposed to do. BUT BE WARNED! The product description is missing this important point: Alphanumeric keys are backlit, but special/uppercase *are not backlit!*. The text on this is nearly unreadable, so the keyboard is difficult to use if youre not going to play games with it. For example, the uppercase 4 (or shift 4, if you will) is usually $. On a printed keyboard, this is almost always visible. On the G815 keyboard, its printed in a dark grey thats nearly unreadable. The 4 is backlit, but the $ isnt. As a result, I cant use this keyboard to do writing or programming. I understand why the manufacturer decided that backlighting the special characters wasnt important. This is a gaming keyboard, and gamers dont often use the special characters. I do think they should point out this limitation in the product description.

I was skeptical about buying this keyboard based on the reviews I saw. I took a chance and am happy that I did. I wanted a TKL, wireless, USB/Bluetooth keyboard that is good for typing/work and gaming, has the Home/End/Pg Up/Pg Down keys in the traditional locations and also has the F keys offset (not directly above the number keys). $200 is a lot for a keyboard, but I trust Logitech and wanted to give this a try. It exceeded my expectations. I need the keyboard to be able to switch back and forth between a PC (Gaming) and a Mac (Work). On PC, I plugged in the lightspeed wireless dongle and I was done. On Mac, I paired the keyboard with bluetooth, it asked me press certain keys on the keyboard and I was done. When connected to the Mac via bluetooth, the Windows key changes to the Apple/Command key and the Alt key changes to the Option key automatically. It was seamless. I did not have to download any software or set any preferences to make this happen. I wanted to point that out because I couldnt find any other reviews that touched on that subject and this was important to know for my needs. They Keychron I was using did not have a wireless USB option, so I had to toggle back and forth between Wired USB and Bluetooth. To do so, you have to flip a switch on the side of the keyboard, then you have to flip a second switch based on if you want the keys to be Mac or PC. With the G915, all of this is gone. Its all wireless, and when you press the USB button its automatically set to PC keys...when you press the bluetooth button its automatically set to Mac keys (because I paired it with a Mac). Huge QoL improvement for me. Gaming wise...my first night I played with it, I won 6 straight in overwatch and got promoted to platinum so....take that as you will. In all seriousness though, there is no delay, no ghosting issues, no missed key presses or anything like that. It works perfectly. Typing wise, I prefer the tactile keys. The actuation point isnt super deep (like it is with Keychron) and the keys feel crisp and make a slightly audible click. I am fast and accurate. Very happy with this. The profile is suuuuper thin. So thin in fact that I dont need my wrist rest anymore. The Keychron I had was incredibly thick and without a wrist guard, it felt like my wrists were constantly angled up. Not the case with this keyboard. I dont care about lights but.....it has them, and there are several options available in the G-Hub software. On the negatives, the keys arent as tight as I am used to. They wiggle around kind of like a loose tooth might. Its not a huge deal, but its something I noticed that I thought was weird. The price is going to be the biggest negative for me. Paying $200 for a keyboard is unattractive, but since it covered all of my (weird) bases, I paid it. Wish it was close to $150. Overall, it fit my needs, performs better than expected and it cleaned up my setup quite a bit. Happy with the purchase, even if it was pricey.

Not as bright as the last keyboard I had, which I can get by, took a little getting used to but that was all. Overall the keyboard is so nice, being able to go wireless is so nice especially when I draw with my wacom tablet because I can still reach the keyboard no matter where the tablet is. My probably only complaint is that I cant see the alt keys so I am having to learn where like the & and * are better, but thats just a i switch from a keyboard that showed those to one that doesnt so its a me problem lol. I wish it was a little quieter, as someone whos mic likes to pick up all the clicking and furiously quickly types, its annoying for my friends at times. I will say cleaning this is so much better than the corsair I had before, I have 5 cats and the amount of cat hair under my keys at times... -shudder- Dont have to worry about that now.

Really loved this keyboard - the battery life was going to be astonishing; from full charge and after 2 days of medium usage (about 5 hours total), still held 94% charge because it is smart enough to kill the lights and even kill the power to the keyboard often enough it saves battery. Just a tab on any key wakes it up and youre good to go. Their proclamation of 30 hours seems to be a pretty safe bet. I grabbed this one after trying a cheaper unbranded gaming keyboard that only gave me 5 hours total before the battery died. The only downsides were the inability to see the unlit shifted keys in a dark room, its length (left little room for my mouse on a cramped desk), and the placement of the G1-G5 keys to the left of the tab/caps/shift and ctrl buttons. Hitting those buttons on accident while going for shift or some other combination that required it is the main reason I sent this one back and replaced it with a G915 TKL version, which has an even better battery life (40 hours) and no annoying accidental keypresses of the macro keys. If you need a 10-key or need to use it for work, the G915 is a solid choice. if just for gaming or casual use, go with the TKL model. They are both a bit pricey, but well worth it to complete out your gaming system setup.

I really like it. The key cap material feels a little cheap for the $200+ price tag, but I haven’t felt like it is enough of a negative to return or recommend other keyboards. There is a little bit of where you can slightly shift the key caps horizontally, but I don’t feel like it gets in the way of my typing at all. Only when I rest my fingers and push completely on the keys do I feel the keycaps slide. They also will only shift maybe a few millimeters. While gaming and typing normally I do not notice it. Trying to press the keys from all angles, I cannot find an angle where they do not register a press. Even on the space bar. The space bar, and all other keys larger than the standard letter and number keys, have a design with three supports so it has always registered a press from whatever angle I pushed on it from. While typing normally I do not run into any problems. I think if you have the cash to spend on it, this keyboard might be worth it for you. It’s all subjective though and I can admit that coming from a wired keyboard the difference is completely for the quality of life improvements over anything like insane response time or other advancements in keyboard technology. It is fast with very low lag, and I don’t feel any lag from a good 15 feet from the adapter, and think I can go way further, but my room is small. Even with stuff like a bed, pillows, and other stuff in the way I cannot see any difference. I imagine that you could game on a tv if you wanted if you sat on the couch, with reliable speed, but I don’t have a large enough screen to check. I wanted the 915 TKL for the wireless, the TKL that frees up space for my small desk, and reliability. By buying this keyboard you are buying it to have a wireless small reliable keyboard. I do not think that it’s any better than a wired keyboard in its technical ability. I used the G512, and other keyboards in the past, and loved them. This keyboard is if you want to spend extra on it. There are more budget keyboards for gaming from Logitech and other brands that have on par response time. This is if you want, and can, spend extra. Bluetooth is fast as well. I’m using it on my phone right now to test it’s Bluetooth ability, and it feels fast enough to say it is a valid choice for whatever Bluetooth ability you need. I do not have the ability to test gaming on Bluetooth however, but would imagine that the USB adapter is much faster and more reliable than Bluetooth due to the nature of Bluetooth being slower than other methods of wireless. I got linear switches and they are quiet and smooth. Going from a clicky G512 to linear it’s exactly what I wanted. Smooth the whole press, and has what I think are great overall ergonomics. I do have large hands though, and can easily reach the F keys even though they have a small space between them and the number keys. This might not be the keyboard for someone with small hands if you plan on using the F keys a lot. Overall, I’d recommend it, but it is expensive. I would recommend waiting for a sale or receiving a gift card to make it more worth it to buy. 9.75/10 (.20 for the key caps, and .05 for the horizontal “key shifting”) [side note: the brushed metal is not black and does stand out in bright light. I think it’s okay but if you are going for a certain aesthetic look with your keyboard you would have to be looking for a dark metal-y grey with this keyboard.]
