    • I'm using this keyboard, loving it but 2 or 3 keys double tap or late register randomly or don't register at all. I plan to repair it but I need some proper tools first. Weird fact, my mouse sometimes does the double click too.... I think i'm cursed.

  • REALLY great informative and very helpful reviews! No BS info or time wasting filler, really goes over every detail of the product... Plus host is really well spoken (no stuttering, "umms", or awkward pauses), knowledgeable and energetic but not irritating or coming across as trying to have some sort of catchy persona... Anyway haha really great videos. Thank you so much, you have been a huge help in my search for the perfect mechanical board!

  • 16th April 2023. Using G710+ I think 11+ years now. Got it very early. Tortured and really used a lot! Disassembled & fully cleaned multiple times. So far 4 Broken keycaps: both Control keys, Numpad minus and a Windows-Key. The plastic on the underside just gets bridle over the years and the little cross holding them on the switch breaks. Used the G3 to G6 macro keys as replacement. Probably should order replacements at some points.

  • I brought this 2 years ago as a Christmas gift for myself, and I'm still typing on it as of this comment. Great actuation, reliable and great for daily use. One caveat I have is the backlighting; at full power & off it is fine, but at partial illumination for both WASD & full keyboard it makes my desktop speakers give off an audible & annoying high-pitched whine.

  • I got one of these a number of hears ago, and it's still working perfectly fine. The macro keys are my standard shortcuts for browsing web pages, opening, closing, and swapping between tabs. I also used the software to make different macros for other programs, like text editors. It's surprisingly handy for that. Aside from the macro keys, the hardware volume roller has got to be my favourite feature on it. It saves a ton of hassle. I don't know why, but I haven't gotten a lot of use out of the media keys.

  • I have this keyboard and it's a tank using CherryMX Brown keys with O-rings for extra dampening. Logitech was late with this introduction but well worth it being done right. Great job and if you don't like the orange strip it's easily modifiable to black or gray if you can do a simple modification.

  • I have this keyboard and I must say that I love it. Under each of the keys is a little rubber ring which is used to help dampen the noise so if you want a bit more of a click you can take all the rings out but it will take you about an hour to do it to every key. The software that it comes with is amazing. You can easily program the keys by clicking on them in the picture of the keyboard the software has. I have one of my keys configured to hit like 8 different buttons with like a 50ms delay between the presses so my game doesn't think im hitting them all at the same time. The orange accent isn't for everyone but I think it makes it look cool.

It's appeared at your personal workstation at the LinusTechTips office multiple times and appeared recently in the 2 rigs, 1 tower video. I have a few questions: 1. Why has this been your keyboard of choice for so long? I'm sure it hasn't been the only mechanical keyboard gifted to the LinusTechTips office in the past few years. 2. Have you noticed any durability issues with the keycaps? 3. O-rings or no O-rings?

Keys on left need a little to get used to but after 2 days I'm almost OK with them ;) m keys were hard at first but got soft after few presses ! The keyboard feel s awesome ! The keys are so soft and awesome , I tell you , as you havn't tried a mecha yet , get a g510 ( try before buy :P ) it's so much better than anansi, if you touch g710+ you will fall in love with it ( I'm guessing ) so don't touch it while g510 seems awesome to you xD and pay less , I can't explain this keyboard , the thing I'm worried about is the skin going bad like my old anansi, BTW the keys require a little more force , but goes down smoothly ! No problem with it , I also type faster and with less typos ! ( I typed this with phone :P) try g510s or old one before you buy g710+ :P its awesome !!! Backlight is so much brighter than anansi BTW , visable in day but no direct sun light , software is also awesome ! Looks awesome too! Feels solid and good quality and like a metal tank !!! Volume wheel feels so cool xD I Also installed sirlcdreal ! Its cool but not really very useful (still useful :P but not much)  Also it doesn't get wet and dirty easily , my anansi was a magnet ! The wrist pad is so hard to remove after installing ! I worried I might break keyboard while removing it ! But I rather have it on ! for first days I sometimes pressed wrong keys or g6 instead of escape but also I got used to cool new layout in less than a day xD

  • Another great one, Linus. I own a Das Keyboard Pro S with the Blues, an older version with Fn keys. It's awesome for typing, but with no backlighting, difficult for gaming. Das intends their 'boards for typists only, which is fine, but I do game a little, and don't always want a desk light on. So, I may consider a G710 and use the Das for something else. Thanks again! The K90 was atop my list, but the Browns are appealing for all the reasons you covered. The mechanical market is growing..

I personally love the dedicated media keys and hate when other manufacturers just mix it up with the F keys. I chose Logitech because I have been using them for years (G5, MX518, various keyboards and webcams). Hopefully this helps someone out.

    • B BG i agree with you, i don´t even feel the use to it, at first i wa slike, oh yea good for seeing keys in the dark, but i´m actually very used to a keyboard and know where every key is from just feeling it, i had a xmas tree keyboard once, after a month i turned off the lights, forever, now i have old mechanical keyboard with no lights and i dont feel depressed in any way, now im looking for a highend keyboard, and everysingle one has lights, and all the video reviews have to comment about them as if it was a great feature, it´s just my 2 cents maybe im in the minority, but why use more electricity than we should when we dont look at keyboard at all while playing im sure ^^

  • Your reviews are really helping me choose my first Mechanical Keyboard, thanks. Is the wrist rest on the G710+ comfortable? And is it made out of a good quality plastic? ie. a slightly grippy feel to it? Thanks.

  • Four minor problems I have with this keyboard. Other than that, I think it's a lot better than the K70, and the 6GV2 (Both that I own) IMO. First problem is the volume wheel. It feels cheap, and gives some resistance at random times. The rest of the three are just something I wish came with the keyboard, so it has nothing to do with the quality of the keyboard (which is fantastic btw). One would be a braided cord, most mechanical keyboards pretty much have that as a standard. Second one would be a removable cord, it's just a personal dislike, having that cord stick out when you put it inside your bag is a bit annoying. My last wish would be a key removal tool for easier cleaning. Just like the other suggestions, they're minor things that would greatly improve the look of Logitech (The small things really improve the product, makes the customer feel they're getting more than they paid for).

  • Thanks, I got g710+ and have no problems with lights. I read and it may be true that old series had problem (on box was written g series) and new ones are fixed (on box is written only G). Anyway I keep lights off all the time since I don't need it. But want to add that g710+ and g510s (as I could notice fast while testing over the plastic cover) have similar key resistence but g710+ is smoother so I got that and price difference is like 30 euros.

    • Andrei Mateescu i agreed with highwayblowout about how bad the software is. i bought g502 mouse, and the setting is just really hard to figure out. until now i cant make a profile, there's a button to create profile, then a window popped up and you need to fill the name of the profile but i cant click the damn button to make the profile. also generally it's really hard to set the buttons. although the mouse itself is quite good (i guess) i like the scroll can be unlocked making it so easy to scroll.

    • Andrei Mateescu Don't worry, i found many others who had exact problem as i, on their tech support forum. Not to mention the gs930 is a plug and go headset, the installation is pretty much straight forward and simple. I'm not worried that i did something wrong since their mods on their forum even mentioned its a well known problem with the software.

  • Went for the k90 a few months ago and love it. The only thing I would've liked to be included on it is the cable routing for the headset. I use a vengeance 1500 headset plugged into the usb passthrough on the keyboard and the cable is always getting in the way, so it would've been nice if they included that on it.

  • I owned a K90 and now own a K70 (needed the space), blue lights with Cherry Reds (couldn't wait for the browns to come out) and I love it. But I have to say I do like the look of the Logitec offering. I prefer the backplate and the practicality of the recess of said plate on the Corsair, but the Logitech has a nice scifi look to it.

  • Mechanical keyboards have switches which are completely different from the typical Membrane keyboard. The German company Cherry makes the switches in a whole bunch of different types. The four most common are Cherry MX Blue, Brown, Red, and Black. Blues are clicky and tactile feel, Browns are tactile feel no clicky, Red are linear (no tactile feel) and quiet, Blacks are like Reds only they take a bit more force to actuate. Linus has a video on this as well.

Anyways I have been so happy with this keyboard and am impressed that it still works and looks just as nice as when I got it. I have had other mechanical keyboards since then and do have them set up on other machines in my house, but the g710+ has always returned to my desk as my primary keyboard.
