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

Over all good action and layout. The shift keys dont glow, and are not in bold. Not good for typing some text. touch typing no big deal.

At $250 it is by far the most expensive keyboard i have ever purchased. Previously my most expensive keyboard was the Logitech G513 at $150. I bought this keyboard (alongside the Logitech G604 Mouse) to use at work, I have two computers that i switch between and the idea of using a single keyboard for both of them was what pushed me to make the purchase. Main computer: Dell Latitude 5490. Second Computer: Microsoft Surface Book 2 15 (Connected via Bluetooth) Id like to start with the bad before I get into what I like about the keyboard. The Bad: - The Logitech G Hub software is a PAIN to install on a company issued computer locked down by firewalls and IT. If I hadnt been in IT myself I doubt i would have ever gotten it installed. The software installer package when being run requires additional files to be downloaded in the background, this got blocked by my company firewall. I have the software installed on my Home PC without issue, but the software still is bloated and buggy. - The shift values on the keyboard are printed below the non-shift values. For a screenshot see the (as of this posting) the third image for the product that shows the middle of the keyboard and says Lightspeed Wireless View the ? and / keys to the left of shift. Normally, on most keyboards I have used, the Shift value ? is printed above the non-shift value /. My other Logitech G513 keyboard has the ? above the /, so this change isnt consistent across Logitech products. - When swapping between Bluetooth/Lightspeed my RGB settings are lost, they can be reset by either turning on and off the keyboard or going back into the software to reapply them. - After toggling between Bluetooth/Lightspeed, the Logitech G Hub software removes the ability to use and change the G1-G5 keys. They are non-functional and the option to do anything with them is lost in the software. Toggling the power to the keyboard resolves this. - It reports that it has 0% battery life to my Bluetooth connected device, the G Hub software shows it at 99% but windows will occasionally inform me that the laptop is out of battery. - It is still using Micro-USB and does not have a USB-C port. - the M1,M2,M3,MR, Lightspeed, Bluetooth, GameMode soft buttons at the top are not RGB, they are as far as I can tell fixed colors. They have the technology as the exactly same styled RGB softbutton next to GameMode is a pleasantly configurable RGB. - The Logitech G Hub software does not detect or let you configure the device on the Bluetooth connected computer. (This functionality is built into the G604 mouse so it is possible.) A lot of these problems are software and can and *better* be fixed in an update to the Logitech G Hub software and firmware updates. Things I like about the keyboard: - Toggling between Bluetooth/Lightspeed is genuinely immediate. By the time my hand returns to home-row after hitting the key it is usable on the other device. - There is no input lag detectable on lightspeed, There is no input lag detectable over bluetooth (my G604 mouse does, but this review is not about that product) - Fun fact: You can technically use it on 3 devices: When on lightspeed connection, it will first default to the USB connection if there is one. So you could have one computer wired to the keyboard, unplug the wire and have a second computer connected via Lightspeed, and then toggle to a third computer with the Bluetooth key. If you are considering going this route I would recommend grabbing a Magnetic cable for quick plugging in and unplugging of the keyboard. (I have some NetDot Gen 12 cables that support data) - I have the Tactile variant of the keys (Brown switches), Since im in an office enviroment keeping the loudness of my typing down was ideal, so i avoided the Clicky variant, the Tactile keys feel good to the touch. They make good sounds (My G513 had a springy tang to the sound while it was being broken in, not too pleasant to hear) - Im sure the battery life is good, 30 hours is 4x more than I need on a standard work-day. the Software tells me that it can last up to 60 hours, which is 2x more than the advertised length. I doubt ill ever need to test the battery, but its good knowing that if i do need to rely on keyboard battery, that it will last me many days of use. - Its really thin, and it feels strong and durable. it barely fits into my backpack with my laptop, im not worried that if my backpack falls or gets stepped on that the keyboard will break. - It feels light to hold and carry, but it is heavy for how thin it is. Despite how light it is, it sits steady and immovable on my desk. - Im in love with the volume scroll wheel. This is a good keyboard. The lost star is not because of the software issues, which I hope will be fixed soon and not be relevant to anyone who may read this fairly long review. I also did not remove a star because of price. I felt it was worth it for me but also irrelevant to the quality of the product. It lost the star because of: - 7 buttons do not have RGB - Still using Micro USB instead of USB C - The Key Printing issue

I have gone through a variety of phases as far as mechanical keyboards go, Ive had Razers mechanical and optical switches, Ducky keyboards, the Drop Alt with Zeal switches on it, and a couple Corsair keyboards as well. I was looking for a fast-actuating linear switch that would be good for playing FPS games like Valorant and CSGO, and this keyboard fits the bill perfectly. The actuation is fast, and the travel distance is perfect in my opinion, not being too immediate as to accidentally hit switches, but just fast enough to be immediate if you need it to be. The switches are smoother than what youll get with any Cherry switch, but not as smooth as a Zeal or Ink switch, but that doesnt really matter. Compared to other keyboards, the value proposition of this keyboard is difficult to accept, but the keyboard is top-notch, there is no competition when it comes to some of its features. Its lightspeed wireless connection has basically no latency, so it can be used for competitive gaming without a problem. In addition, there are very few low-profile mechanical keyboards of good quality on the market right now. The TKL format is rarer than full-sized by far, so the fact that it is both low-profile and TKL, and linear, and lightspeed, and has excellent metal build quality, and dedicated media keys, all make this keyboard worth it in my opinion. If you cant stomach the price of the keyboard, there are lots of other good keyboards available for far less money, but this keyboard has features that Ive listed that you cannot find anywhere else, and thats kind of a shame. To be honest, even if the competition was makin similar keyboards, I would still be buying this one, most likely, because its absolutely gorgeous, small, and the Logitech software doesnt crash my computer the way Razers has. Other than the price, the only cons of this keyboard are that it comes with ABS keycaps, which are cheap and will begin to shine after a while, and that it uses micro-usb instead of usb-c to charge, both minor issues considering that Logitech will send you new keycaps if you need them. If you can afford it, and want the features it has, buy it.

I own a Logitech MX Keys, and its a fantastic keyboard, except that it has a numeric pad which I dont use, and which gets in the way of the mouse, and make the keyboard heavier and more awkward to carry around (it wont fit in some backpacks). I bought this G915 TKL because I want a TenKeyLess (no numeric pad) keyboard *for travel*. I dont game. However, for SOME REASON, it turns out that *ALL* TKL keyboards are mechanical. What the heck. The MX Master is far slimmer, far quieter, yet offers plenty of tactile feedback. I dont understand why Logitech doesnt make a TKL version of it. The G915 is taller, heavier (despite having some 20 fewer keys), and much LOUDER. The rainbow colors are fun, and it has the proper spacing between F4/F5 and F8/F9. But I cant justify the $200 price, and it doesnt add anything to the ergonomics. If you want to mash keys, maybe its the right keyboard. I dont.

This keyboard is not a terrible keyboard dont get me wrong, but there are a few bugaboos that drive me bonkers. The shift function of the keys are not rgb lit, makes it difficult sometimes at night to see certain keys like # & @ for example. The secondary (shift function) of some of the normal keys are also physically (appearance) swapped. The / above the ? for example. I also do not like the placement of the G keys. I hit them frequently instead of the caps or shift buttons. Overall my WPM and accuracy dropped. Those are the key points I wish to share.

Speechless

They keyboard is lightweight, durable, VERY clicky so if you’re into that, you’ll be satisfied and overall, a solid keyboard. My only 1st world complaint is the colors that shine through the keyboard and through the keypads, are not true to color. For example, gold looks like yellow. Dark shades of blue are much brighter in color.. and so on. Would I recommend it for its functionality and overall performance? Yes. Would I recommend it because the RGB spectrum is great and solid? Nope.

Good study keyboard, and its one that Id be comfortable traveling with. The downside is that keys are lit, but the secondary functions arent lit, so if you dont know shift+6 is ^ then you will stumble in the dark.

Very nice on the fingers

Logitech G815 wired gaming keyboard with low profile design. Bought this keyboard for 180 USD before tax. This is my first quality gaming keyboard buy. Before this keyboard I went through the cheapos and tried out the Phillips brand Mechanical Gaming keyboard for 60 USD which broke on me within less than 2 months. I intend to take good care of this new G815 Gaming keyboard. I will for sure update my review if I have any problems with it. Just got the keyboard a couple days ago and installation was pretty straight forward. While the software for this keyboard is confusing to download from the Logitech website because it doesnt offer direct downloads for the specific G815 model. I downloaded the Logitech G Hub app which allows for the RGB control and G key program. Can switch to on board memory profile within the app. The keyboard feels very sturdy. One thing I wouldnt want to do is transport this keyboard and accidently knock off one of the keys because I think that would mean the end of that key if I did. The profile is low but not super super low, kind of a mid low size profile. While this keyboard is generally pretty quiet its not as quiet as a laptop keyboard. The media controls seem to work even when in game, which is good I cant say the same for my Roccat Headset. Another reviewer mentioned that the illumination on the alternate 1 to 0 keys like the @ and $ is not illuminated which is a negative to this keyboard, although the general brightness of the backlight is definetly bright enough for me. The backlight is significantly strong and I can tell its definetly got a bright enough backlight for night time gaming sessions with the lights out. Although I really wouldnt say that is a hard to find aspect about new gaming keyboards and for the price point I would definetly expect the backlight to be great. I havent been able to figure out per key RGB but I have been able to figure out how to change the colors and or modes and there is multiple modes to choose from, I particularly like the red white and blue rgb mode which goes well in a patriot themed room. I bought the clicky mechanical keyboard variation because I like quick actuation and I dont want to have to hit my keys very hard and I can say im not disappointed with this variation. The keys are clicky like I would expect for the price point. Not a whole lot more to say about this keyboard, its a good keyboard for gaming, does its job. I would definetly update my review if i have any problems down the line.
