Pretty good mechanical keyboard with lots of RGB functions. Has audio keys, lighting effects key (to toggle through different presets), and the keys function just as you’d imagine. Very clicky sounding. Only con is how high the keys are from your palms, definitely need to get a palm rest, or you’re receiving carpal tunnel syndrome as an add on.

I'm not exactly an expert on mechanical keyboards or anything, but I've thoroughly enjoyed this keyboard for the month and a half I've had it. The lighting effects sync up with my Logitech mouse, which is really cool. The responsiveness is spectacular. The build quality is as well. Don't pass up on this item if you're looking for a sleek and solid gaming keyboard.

Excellent gaming keyboard. Got it for 50$ during Black Friday and it was worth it! Clicky and the RGB flows great.

The product is pretty good it is a bit difficult typing the first week due to how clicky it is but once u get used to it it is really good and the colour is mesmerizing

This is amazing but my cable frayed after a couple months so I can’t use it anymore because the wires inside also frayed so... but this is still a great keyboard

I am using this keyboard to write this review right now. I love it a lot. I provide the clicky clacky noise that a lot of people associate with mechanical keyboards which is exactly what I wanted. I've never used Cherry Blue branded switches, but I think these are a superb alternative. The color options allow for significant customization and I noticed in some games like Terraria provide custom lighting relevant to what's happening on the screen (rain-like animation/lighting on the keyboard when it's raining in-game.) I thought it would be a forgettable gimmick, but it's actually way cooler than I thought I would be. High quality, super sturdy, and very colorful at an amazing price. (Remember to download the drivers to customize the colors) 10/10.

Great keyboard. Good material. Blue clicky switch was just a tad bit louder than i expected so I couldn't use it in the living room since others were complaining. Otherwise fine keyboard. I changed the asdw keys with another keycap.

GX Blues - yes they are KLicky and make a lot of CLack. Good for typing, but with these blues it does make me feel a little fatigued typing a lot. I would stick with Reds or browns for typing. If they had this combo with Romer-G Tacticle, I would def have gone with that at this price. I use this in with stand/sit desk and I have not gamed with it yet, but I have a feeling it would require me to press harder than I am used to. Would recommend if you want to get into mechanical, the build quality is phenomenal. Dark alu-min-ium has a nice touch to it and the RGB settings are top notch. The cable is thicker rubber sheath, and not wrapped in anti-snag material like the G513. The added USB port is great to plug the play pad in for wireless charging of G903 mouse.

The Pros: It is a nice keyboard, looks good and feels high quality. You can program the color on each individual key if you have the Logitech Software. It also has some nice presets. It has a USB pass-through port on the front, which is nice. The Cons: The USB pass-through port is USB 2.0 The keys are pretty noisy, so if that bothers you, get something else. The Neutrals: It is hard to read the letters on the keys if the RGB is off. Also the secondary key functions don't light up. It does have media keys, but you just need to use the FN key. Final Thoughts: I got it on sale for $50. For that price, the pros far outweigh the cons. I wouldn't pay full retail price for it though.

Excellent mechanical keyboard, more so if you're new coming from a membrane keyboard and want something more tactical feel with RGB lighting options. It will be louder for sure typing on this keyboard and you can cut the noise done slightly with o-rings under the keys. It does have a USB 3.o port for plugging in other devices, but no audio pass-through. Cable it grommeted to the frame and is sturdy, which I prefer over the USB plug in style that can put wear on the port if the keyboard is moved around often. Frame is sturdy with no flexing detected, The basic RGB lighting is built-in the keyboard memory, but for any RGB effects, you will need the Logitech software loaded and running to have individual light settings, but but they are still more basic than other RGB software like Razer Synapse. This was purchased while on sale, so for price at that time, it was a hell of deal. At normal pricing, I would do some comparison shopping, as there isn't as many other functions like some other keyboards. The lighting on some colors isn't as bright IMO and if you do use clear o-rings under the keys, you can sometimes see the outline in the key cap lighting, so keep this in mind.

This keyboard is incredibly awesome. I have purchased this keyboard for $49.99, and it is for sure worth the expense. The mechanical keyboard enables you to type greatly faster for cases that include office and school work. This keyboard is also amazing for gaming, as it's smooth and feels satisfying to click on the keys. The keyboard also includes a built-in USB port, so it's convenient for USB cables that can not reach my PC. However, the USB port requires you to connect an additional USB cable to your PC in order for it to function. Meaning if you want to use both the keyboard and the USB port built in the keyboard, you have to connect two USB cables to your PC. The RGB light quality on the keyboard is also amazing, and can easily be controlled by the Logitech application. There's also a key dedicated to changing the RGB lighting type on the keyboard, however, is it limited. However, it is an amazing keyboard. I would not find myself paying the full price of this, but $49.99 is a steal.

I've bought 2 of these, they go on sale for $50 fairly often during black friday- new years. At $50 they are an absolute steal. Per key RGB and your choice of clicky keys (my favorite, comparable to other brands blue switches) and then their version of a brown switch. The metal top deck looks nice and helps it feel solid, and the usb pass through is another really nice feature. At full price, this still isn't a bad buy, but at $50, it's impossible to beat in my opinion.

I think I have settled on my favorite keyboard. I was previously using a Corsair Strafe, but the Logitech G512 looks a lot sleeker. The RGB can be fully customized, if you are in to that. The blue switches have a very satisfying tactile feel + sound. Note: you might have issues on at-home conference calls with the key noise. The only thing I feel like this keyboard is missing is a dedicated volume rocker + mute switch.

Solid, heavy, sturdy keyboard. I got mine with the blue clicky keys, and I am very happy with it's performance, solidity, and the RGB is kind of a nice touch if you work in dark environment. Some games will even support visual effects and highlight keys that do things for you. It is a wired keyboard and it uses not 1 but 2 USB slots, however, it does have a built in USB port and that's really handy.

Let me start off by saying I was never a big fan of Logitech, but this keyboard changed my mind instantly. Great build quality, great aesthetics, the switches feel smooth and clicky which I love. The rgb looks good also. The only thing I didn’t care for is the software you use for the keyboard. Pain in the butt to use, but that’s the only issue I’ve had with this keyboard.

This keyboard is excellent. The lights make the keyboard look so cool. It makes gaming so much more fun. The keys are super easy to see and use. You can put it up in the back for easier use of the keys. I would definitely recommend it to anyone even if you don’t do gaming. The prices for the keyboard was excellent I got it on sale.

The build quality feels fantastic for the price. The LEDs show nice through the key caps and do not bleed as much as cheaper models. The Logitech G hub gives you nice settings to customize the lighting effects. The USB pass through is also nice to have options for connects on your desktop.

It's a great keyboard! I love how it feels typing coming from a membrane keyboard. It is loud, but it's a blue switch keyboard. Blue switches are "clicky" for the uninitiated. So if it's going to be a nuisance to the people you live with, then this isn't the one for you. My daughter spilled milk on it right after I got it. Was able to easily remove the keys and clean it up. It wasn't a big spill, so nothing shorted but this isn't a waterproof keyboard. Lighting effects are nice with the GHub software. Logitech makes good stuff. I got it on sale for $50, so it was an excellent price. Pick it up if you can get it for the right price.
