Always wanted a gaming keyboard with the cool RGB lights but kept putting it off and now with this work from home situation, feel it's time for the little upgrade from the vanilla Logitech experience. There aren't many reviews of this keyboard out there and this one from your really nudged me to buy this. Thanks for making this video Stay healthy, stay safe!

  • Love the clicky blues, and the metal top. Feels so solid, and heavy. SUCH an upgrade. Feels very nice for $60 Canadian. The cable length is like 4 or 5 feet. Kind of short, but works. Also wish there was a left Fn key, but I recommend the free software Clavier+ for easy customizable hotkeys. It is very lightweight too. Overall great buy.

  • When i plug in the keyboard, everything is normal, but when i start the drivers and play around a little bit, the enter button and the hashtag button switches. I tried to reset the drivers, even redownloaded the drivers, but it didnt work. I sent the keyboard back, and wanted a new one again, tried it out and it happened again. I dont have a clue why this is happening.

  • Have that keyboard and for 40€ that's really a nice deal ! Key stabilisation is not really good but not terrible, no dedicated macros and it sounds like it's going to wake-up the whole town, but otherwise it feels heavy and expensive, that steel top looks great and it's basically mx blues, so they feel good. TL;DR : If you don't care about the sound or perfect stabilisation and you are on a small budget, buy it.
