very good keyboard

The keyboard is beautiful, it is also very responsive I had only one problem it was with the themes downloaded on g hub which were not made for the g915 and which made it turn off and on again in loop what is very annoying when playing, I then took themes compatible only with the g915 and the problem was solved! I recommend this product and the delivery at the top as usual thank you again

        Delighted with the keyboard

        Highly responsive. Easy to configure using the dedicated application. Wireless with no latency. I'm very happy with this purchase.

        What a disappointment!

        On receipt, I was, as is often the case with Logitech G products, pleasantly surprised. I'd been desperately looking for the Linear version of the keyboard, but when I couldn't get my hands on one (even after several months), I finally opted for the touch version.
        Product strengths:
        - The aluminium case, which makes cleaning under the keys much easier
        - The thickness of the case,
        - The keyboard's responsiveness, particularly when playing games, but it's just as easy to use for simple writing.
        - Programmable keys.
        - Saved profiles and multimedia keys.
        - No delays, even when used wirelessly.

        BUT, after more than 6 months of use, I'm disappointed...
        - The cable connection (even when it's wireless, you still have to recharge it) doesn't work properly, because the plug is very unprotected, slightly raised, but unstable and fragile.
        - AND, above all, the keys, which have completely lost their covering, with the characters fading and no longer being recognisable. Attached is a photo of the i o and m keys... I'll leave you to imagine the ZQSD keys.
        My previous keyboard served me faithfully for more than 6 years, and if other problems appeared, I never had keys erased even with intensive use. So for a keyboard costing over 200€, I expected better.

        Somewhat satisfied

        Very good build quality
        The software to be installed recognises all Logitech peripherals and allows precise keyboard configuration
        The macros are easy to use
        Some characters aren't backlit, so aren't very visible in a dark environment
        On the other hand, I'm rather disgusted to have bought it for 250 euros and to find that a month later it's being offered for 160...

        Keys that disappear

        This could have been a good keyboard if the keys didn't fade after 3 months...
        For 250€, you'd expect a quality keyboard, but that's not the case here.
        As a result, I created a ticket for Logitech's after-sales service, which was very responsive and sent me a set of keys for replacement.
        Apart from that, the G-HUB software is very well optimised and allows you to control all the brand's 'G' devices, not to mention the fact that it's wireless, which means you don't have to drag everything around your desk and it looks cleaner.

        Switching from Razer to Logitech

        I've owned the keyboard for 3 years and I've never had a problem with it.
        The touch is great, visually very nice (in 3 years none of the materials have been damaged), the battery is a bit limited for my taste if you spend a whole day on it.
        Important point: the keyboard is super easy to clean! The keys can be removed without tools.

        I'd definitely recommend it :)

        Getting started

        I really enjoyed using this wireless keyboard, the response time is instantaneous, it has a sleep mode in case of AFK, thanks to that, the battery saving is top notch! (3 days without recharging = still +20%).

        I'm not used to the G1 to G5 keys, but if you're like me, it can spoil the pleasure of using it because when you get used to not looking at the keyboard, instead of doing ctrl+c, I sometimes did G5+x, or actions in a game where the G keys are assimilated to other actions (certainly deactivatable but I lose reflexes).

        So I decided to give it back to those who are already used to it, I wouldn't necessarily need these macro keys, or at least, I wouldn't have said anything if these keys were at the top (there is a lot of empty space at the top of the keyboard I think)

        Fading keys

        After a few months of use, the paint on some of the keys has faded, much faster than on entry-level non-gaming keyboards. This is not at all acceptable from a keyboard of this price! At this price we could have expected double shot keycaps. The choice of backlighting special characters rather than numbers on the top line makes the gaming experience confusing. The customisation of the GHub is far from obvious. If these flaws don't put you off, the keyboard is extremely capable.
        NB: I made a complaint about my key defect to LDLC whose service was impeccable, true to its good reputation. The keyboard was replaced as soon as possible.

        satisfactory keyboard

        This keyboard is compact, comfortable and complete. It is rather quiet for a mechanical keyboard in a case.
        The only downside is that the software that manages the macros and lighting leaves something to be desired when you know what the competition is doing (I come from a Corsair rgb keyboard with the icue software which is really nice in terms of settings).

        Use

        A pleasure to use, especially the sound wheel. Excellent and huge panel for key management and RGB settings. Also good battery life.
        The only downside is that the keyboard has no usb type c port.

        Very good keyboard

        The autonomy is very good (so much so that I can't say how long, more than 2 weeks)
        The switch from bluetooth to lightspeed is very convenient and fast.

        The only thing that bothers me is the presence of the G1 to G5 buttons on the left side of the keyboard that I don't use and sometimes make me do unwanted actions, but I eventually get used to it.

        A friend recommended it to me.
        Well, I can confirm that this keyboard is incredible.
        The colours and the typing feel good.
        The extra buttons are very practical.

        Simply perfect.

        The keyboard is of excellent manufacture, it is very beautiful, and very practical. The Logitech quality is there and the price seems to me justified in view of the quality. I've been using it for a while now and it works perfectly, but I'll have to wait and see. I'd recommend this keyboard to anyone!

        I have never seen this

        The keyboard is incredible, super comfortable and responsive. It's a bit big, but it's fast. It's also beautiful, the rgb is perfectly dosed and super controllable, and there are up to 30 macro possibilities to assign.

        good keyboard with a nice touch but ...

        The big problem is:1 - the NON-lighting of the keys with shift and as the colour of the engraving is dark grey on black, they are difficult to see 2- Without lighting: it is very difficult to distinguish what is written on the keys. If only LOGITECH could read this message

        key not matching the keystroke

        As far as the keyboard is concerned it is really great. However, for a top of the range keyboard at a price of 250 Euros, I feel that Logitech could have made the typing correspond to what is written on the keys on an azerty keyboard (ex: the dot is a comma etc...). It's not serious!

        Satisfied but some grey areas

        I had the MX Keys keyboard which I was already very happy with and I wanted to try the G915.

        Visually, nothing to say, the keyboard is great!

        However, the backlighting does not illuminate all the characters on a key and that's a negative point. Obviously not for the gamer, but I also use this keyboard during the day for programming. It is important to understand that the unlit characters are printed in white-grey and are therefore much less readable during the day and no longer readable at all in the dark.

        I found the software very tedious to get used to and even after a few weeks, I sometimes have trouble managing the profiles (because of the double profile/illumination management). I found the software very tedious to get used to and even after a few weeks, I sometimes struggle with the profile management (because of the double profile/illumination management) and the bluetooth connection on another PC without having installed the software, I struggled to get the right lighting on it, it's possible but you have to search a bit.

        Finally, my keyboard doesn't respond sometimes when I'm in game, as if it had lost the connection. I should mention that I'm in WIFI mode and that the battery is always at more than 50%. This has happened to me several times, but not enough for me to contact support (yet!).

        In conclusion, I like this keyboard, but overall, I think the MX Keys will do better for my needs.

        Excellent!

        Replacing a very old G510 from the same brand, the change is radical!

        I was very apprehensive about a mechanical keyboard, it takes a little time to get used to it, but what I didn't like was the possible "unbearable" noise of the keys, and well with the GL-tactile keys, frankly the noise is really subtle and quite satisfying!

        The keyboard is very nice and the materials are of high quality! nothing to complain about!
        The G-Hub software may not be as intuitive as i-Cue from Corsair for example, but it's easy to use, contrary to the comments I've read.

        You can create your own backlighting/effect/animation!

        The price is a big minus! I got it for 225€ (promotion)
        I love this brand I have a G903 Mouse perfect combo

        Perfect

        The keyboard is really good quality and the battery is good. It takes a good half hour to get used to it because the macro keys on the left require you to centre your hands a little more to the right than on a conventional keyboard.

        Disappointment

        The design is classy, but the positioning of the special characters and numbers, with the accessible uppercase characters located below the regular characters is anything but intuitive. Moreover, for the game, having the special characters illuminated instead of the numbers is a very bad taste choice, which sounds like logitech's contempt for the AZERTY layout. It's anything but practical, if not downright annoying. And I wouldn't get used to it. This is for me the main flaw of this keyboard.
        As far as touch is concerned, the stroke of the keys before release is too long for it to be comfortable in text, or for there to be a real gain in responsiveness in games. On the contrary, the extremely short deactivation stroke of the control will require you to maintain too much pressure on the key, or else you'll have to make small impromptu stops. Lastly, the way the switches work induces a characteristic "playschool" sound and feel, and frankly not in keeping with the stratospheric price of the product.
        As for the lighting, despite the fact that the specialized press -which always copies the press releases- claims "unlimited lighting possibilities", don't expect to be able to use lighting profiles. These are reserved solely for assigning keys and macros. As for the mapping possibilities, they are high without bringing any novelty in the field. A Deathstalker released 5 years earlier at a price 5 times lower will do as well. With the added bonus of the other half of the keys being illuminated.
        On the other hand, their wireless technology is irreproachable. I'm not sure why logitech products' batteries are still not removable....
        I'm not sure if it's a good one, but I'm sure it's a very good one.

        The best wireless mechanical keyboard available on the market

        The keyboard is top notch. The typing is very pleasant and very quiet. The backlighting is very nice, the multimedia keys are well placed and well made.

        The only downside is that the software for configuring the backlighting is a horror. It's incomprehensible and not very intuitive. After almost two hours of tearing my hair out trying to set up the profiles, I give up. There are options everywhere, which are activated or deactivated according to other options, ...

        I don't regret my purchase, but the configuration software clearly spoils the experience ...

        Pleasant to the touch, fairly quiet for the type of keys.
        The finish is impeccable. I didn't expect the weight, but that's to be expected as it's not made of plastic.
        The lights are good and it syncs well with my G903 mouse and my Powerplay pad.
        The only downside that takes away half a star is that the keys have no lighting on the lower characters, it's a shame Logitech didn't do it.

        Very good product

        I recommend this keyboard if you want to have good gameplay. It makes very little noise, which is exactly what you need in a mechanical gaming keyboard. The price is indeed high, but it's better to save money and get good stuff that will last and not break after 2 weeks.
        This is the first time I've used a wireless keyboard. It's true that you have to recharge it from time to time (every 2 weeks), but it's so satisfying not to have 30 cables behind your desk.
        The only negative point is that you shouldn't eat on top of it because the crumbs are hard to get back LOL.
