Logitech G15 Gaming Keyboard (Black)

I have no complaints about this keyboard. It looks amazing, great tactile feedback, keys feel great on the fingers, LCD panel is wicked cool, great media controls. You don't have to be a gamer to use this keyboard, I use it all the time for everyday stuff, I play some games here and there but I didn't get it just for gaming I got it because I have a few uses for the LCD and I just wanted a cool, but functional keyboard that I can type for hours. After I got this keyboard I think I can even type faster than I did on my old keyboard, that's how amazing it is. My old keyboard was pretty loud and people could hear it from other rooms in the house, I can even hear it over my music and games. I got this keyboard and I can't hear it over music or games, and I haven't got a compliant yet that it's loud, thats because it isn't! It's so quiet! I had this keyboard for a little while now I haven't I don't have any keys wearing off, as what some people say. Plus, who knows what people do to their keyboards! I really love how the keys are placed out, and the back lighting works really well! Some people like the blue but I really like the amber color because it's really soft and easy on the eyes. The macro keys works wonderfully and I love that I can record them on the fly. The only three complaints that I have is the wrist wrest doesn't screw on and can feel a little cheap to some, but it's not a big deal. The other complaint is the software that comes with the keyboard. "Logitech GamePanel" I mean it's not that bad as what other people say, but I totally needs some work. Sometimes I will have to restart my computer to get the media display working right. But it wasen't worth taking a star off because I should restart my computer every now and then, since I leave my computer on 24/7. The Final complaint is the 1.1USB ports on the back, I mean they could of done sometimes a little better to make them 2.0 and powered, but I didn't bother taking a star off because I don't use them anyways! Anyways, this is a excellent keyboard! I highly recommend it if you are looking for a new keyboard. Also, I remember checking out this keyboard at Best Buy and it was $99.99 + the 7% tax we have here, it would be a total of 106 dollars. And I picked it up on amazon for around 70 dollars. Now thats a good deal!

I have had this board for about 3 weeks now and I had my last one for 6 years. I never thought it was worth the money to get a keyboard so I just kept my old one till it was just having some conflicts. I am glad I waited to get this board and not the old G15 because I want one that fits and looks like a regular keyboard. The Display is so usefull, I like the hardware monitor andthe count down timer is so handy. Also the media player is great. While in a game or while waiting for the computer to do something I can view the performance information and it will show me what the computer is doing, or if its stuck. IT WILL SHOW A SEPARATE BAR FOR EACH CORE, I HAVE A QUAD CORE AND ITS NICE TO SEE WHICH PROGRAMS USE ALL 4 CORES AND WHICH ONES DON'T. I tried the program buttons and it was very easy, I just don't need them but if you like hot keys they make it so easy. I made one for creating new folders and now I just press one button and... wham!, a new folder. Simple I know but thats what this board is all about. Best Feature: Lighted keys, ALL KEYS. There is a light adjustment button as well. MYTH: volume keys are great even though some people here make it sound like they are cheap. They are not cheap and work very well, however its not a dial.... you choose. BAD: 2 USB ports, however they aren't good for anything that needs the usual USB power. Bottom Line: Great Board, feels nice and has full size keys that "click" like a desktop not a laptop. Very durable and I don't expect the keys to wipe off because they are etched. Should last another 6 years. Have Fun

Received next day as promised with rush delivery thanks to Amazon Prime, packaged well and as expected. Great backlit keyboard, and fairly bright but not too bright orange backlit keys. I actually can't stand having the orange glow turned off while typing now even in the day time because I'm so used to it. I bought and use it for general use as well as gaming (World of Warcraft). I don't use the function keys as much as I hoped. They're out of my comfort zone for reaching, but it's still a nice board. The issues people have had with the gamepanel display software are true, hence not 5 stars. It has trouble detecting keysets, my "game mode" toggle switch to disable windows buttons while in games does absolutely nothing, and I have once or twice had the entire board (and mouse as it's plugged into the USB hub) lock up on me for no reason and had to reconnect it to fix. Not a huge deal to me, but it isn't perfect. Also, the USB hub seems to freeze up and reset the board and connected devices for about 30 seconds whenever I connect a new device to it (flash drives particularly), but this could be something with my USB controller I guess. I don't use USB 2.0 on this system. The negative said, I think it's still a nice keyboard. Comfortable to use, easy to see, no problems with lettering wearing after a month of heavy use. Oh, and the gamepanel (when it decides to work with it) is very sweet to have in Wow...it tells me when people whisper me and what my main stats and % are in current combat form and gear. (The supposed ventrilo feature of seeing who's talking has never worked for me yet.)
