Title: I’ve found the perfect keyboard!
Review: I usually don’t like to write reviews, but for this product, I just really wanted to! :)Firstly, I did a lot of research before ending up with this one. My primary targets were mechanical keyboards, as I will use the keyboard for programming, gaming, music, which is a lot of typing. So if you are looking for your perfect keyboard, I would recommend to first understand what’s the difference between the switches and the profiles.With this, I’ve recently found out about low profile mechanical keyboards. If you have ever used a Mac keyboard or a laptop keyboard, you know how low profile feels and how great it is.So I definitely wanted that, as it’s very comfortable and gives a great feel to typing.But I knew some of the advantages of the mechanical keyboards and I didn’t wanna end up with a cheaper edition of a Mac keyboard for Windows.So I found low profile mechanical keyboards, which seemed a very very interesting combination of these properties.I had a red switch corsair and I must say my hands started to really hurt because you have to press the keys entirely for them to take effect.As I’ve learnt there are 3 (or more) types of low profile switches: clicky, tactile and linear.As far as I understood linear was no go for me, as it’s very similar to red switches. Clicky then felt waaay too laptop-ish (and I say this as watching videos on YouTube, reading articles, listening to the sounds again and again – not testing them in person), and clicky just felt too… cheap? Not sure…But then tactile… It’s just the best thing to type on this thing. The sound, the feel, the confidence if I pressed a key or not. The gentle feedback a key was pressed. This is a new world for me…And of course, this keyboard has a lot of additional features which are just brilliant! You can set color profiles for each application you are using the most (great to switch between work and gaming). And then the macros of course.There only 2 downsides of this keyboard:1) You cannot set the color of the M1, M2, M3, and MR keys. They are always going to be yellow.2) The secondary letters on the keys are not transparent, thus they don’t have light.The latter is more annoying as it’s hard to find sometimes some special characters so I have to find them by memory.But in general, this keyboard is perfect, typing on it is heaven.

Title: Delicate keycaps
Review: Long-time Logitech user.I generally love the keyboard. It’s super slick, looks and feels quite premium. Now, to the details.Pros:Bright, even and very clear yet toned lighting. Keycaps are well designed and they don’t leak light. No unnecessary fireworks which I really appreciate. Feels a bit pastel, but not too much.Metal housing throughout is really sturdy, quite heavy to be honest, which only enhances keyboard’s stability.It’s really thin, even in the elevated position, using the “legs”. Lower option great for writing, higher for gaming.For mechanical keyboard, it’s surprisingly quiet and writing on it is really a pleasure. Keys are low-profiled yet the soft click is still very present.Recording macros using built-in keys is dope!Brightness control button is pretty handy. No need to mess with the software when you go AFK and don’t need the light show.Volume control roll is one of the reasons I chose this model. I love it. It’s super smooth and it feels really premium.USB pass through will charge your phone, power your vape and you can quickly plug in USB stick to transfer content. No issues here.Cons/things to remember:Keycaps are quite delicate. I accidentally broke off one of them during the routine cleaning, where I consider myself to be a really careful user. Fortunately, I was able to glue the loose part of the cap back together. The key works as nothing happened. Remember, keycaps are not warranted.It takes time to get used to the G keys column, situated on the far left of the product. For about a week I was constantly pressing G5 instead of CTRL.Because of that G column, the keyboard is considerably wider than the regular one so mind that if you’re tight on space on your desk. It’s also slightly deeper than the normal one, thanks to Macro keys row and the Volume Control roll.In short: Heavy, sleek, well-designed, bit fragile, with great lighting and lots of customisation options using software.Highly recommended.

Title: Best keyboard I’ve ever used
Review: The G815 is a brilliant keyboard. It’s very comfortable and satisfying to type on. The build quality is superb and the lighting and macro keys are highly programmable and customisable using the freely available GHUB software. I love the low profile mechanical keys, but they can take some getting used to.The only issues I have with it are that the round rubber keys don’t feel as premium as the rest of the board. Also, as some other reviewers have highlighted, keys that have multiple functions (for example /? and 5%) only have one of the characters lit. This can make finding some characters a little harder than it should be when the room is dark. However, once you have used the keyboard for a while you learn where everything is anyway. For me, its a minor niggle on an amazing – if pricy keyboard.

Review: Ich habe nach einem Upgrade für meine g810 gesucht und wollte auf eine englische Tastatur umsteigen. Die g815 ist ein ferfektes Upgrade, das Tastengefühl ist Top, die extra G Reihe links lässt sich nutzvoll belegen und das Volume-Rad ist immer noch da. Empfehle ich weiter!
