Thank you so much! I absolutely hate clicky sounds on keyboards! You are the first person with all three. Sounds like either the Linear or Tactile are for me. I might like the Tactile because of the feedback. I have a hand that was broken and so I need more feedback on that hand. And it sounds like it is not too loud.
so ive been looking into this keyboard for a while cus I really wanted it. i got it and its linear and well one thing I noticed while playing games is that the keys are not picking up some of my keystrokes and that I have to press a bit harder than I like. i notice if press the key a bit away from the center then sometimes the keypress will not register unless the force is even more
OverclockersClub it’s better now but sometimes it lags just a little. I’m loving this keyboard but using the g513 I still have to get used to the low profile lol.
It definitely does have a little delay if you repeatedly roll it up and down, tested it and found it. But for normal use, you'll feel it reacts instantaneously anyway.
I have linear mx red (corsair k68) and I notice they are super loud on release: You silently slightly push the key and when you remove your finger (fast) it's enormously loud + you hear metal vibrating throughout the keyboard. Louder than any click could ever be. I wonder if these 915 keyboards have the same problem. Also would it help to take non-linear to remove that sound from the keys crashing back to default position?
Question: On the tactile I notice towards the bottom of the keystroke if pushed slowly it feels kind of mushy. I'm wondering if you'd agree with this and if so is this present on the Linear variant?
I can't decide between the tactile, which is like all my keyboards are, and a linear one, as I have never touched any like that in my life, and it's a lot of money so I'm pretty worried about making a mistake. I use my keyboard for work and a lot of typing, I like silence so I am leaning toward the linear. Question: when does the linear key register imput? at the bottom or somewhere above the bottom of the stroke? Thanks!
I know I'm a bit late, but, oh well. I have the linear switch. It registers partway down the stroke, though I tend to bottom out anyway due to years of typing on a laptop. Hop this helps!
@@kingoftheostrogoths Does the linear feel like the clicky? I like the feel of the clicky, but I don't like the sound. I tried tactile and it felt like I had to press too hard to get the key going. I've only found stores with the tactile and the clicky for testing, and none with the linear.
@@lowerstreet I don’t know if the linear feels like the clicky, as I ordered the linear online based on video reviews and Logitech’s recommendations. Since I stream occasionally and play with others, I wanted to make sure my keyboard was quiet. As I mentioned previously, the linear feels, to me at least, very similar to a laptop keyboard with a little bit farther of a traveling distance, but you definitely don’t have to bottom out. I really like the feel as compared to a classic clicky, like the kinds I grew up with at school with the big, loud keyboards. Sorry I couldn’t be of more help!
That is hard to say - it is so subjective. Like trying to pick out clothes for someone else. If you like more sound from key actuation, then the clicky might be your style. I use the linear the most, but I am happy with all three styles.
1 ) Is the membrane keyboard different from the linear? 2) Is the membrane keyboard different from the Tactile ? I mainly use a membrane keyboard and now I'm confused about which one to take.
I hate clicky keys so much. With the explosive popularity of "clicky" keys it's been difficult to find a good quiet keyboard! I'm thinking the linear might be my best bet now after hearing it 🙌
@@mykeexe1042 Hey man, I've tried the Tactile but not the Linear. On the tactile I noticed when the keys are pushed slowly it feels kind of mushy towards the bottom of the keystroke. Is the same true for the Linear model you have?
After buying this keyboard today, I feel like some kind of joke was played on me. No lit legends for shift characters on number keys, and bizarrely, no num lock light? The G keys on the left side are useless and make the keyboard too long.
There´s not GL switches, and nothing from logitech about them. These are just simple and good kailh choc switches. Gamdias hermes p3 comes at less than 100 bucks with these kind of switches. They too brag about them as it would be their design.
Same design, same manufacturer, 3mm shorter travel. You can call them what you want. They're choc switches. And there's a shit ton of keyboards with these switches, or some "custom" version of them like the "GL" switches.
@@TTks124 You see, there th-cam.com/video/fxCYXA2zPc8/w-d-xo.html Guy compare many top notch keyboards but says this one typing experience is the best. I prefer low profile very much. There are many other reviews that this is best keyboard they ever used. I don't care about rest of keyboard so much as switches itself. I would even build my own even I never did it. So if there are really cheaper replacements for g815/815 I would love to know where. See.. there a a lot of Pizza makers on the world. Even with same pizzas types/names. But output are always different. Those little tweaks that Logitech made to Chocks I think they probably nailed it. Unfortunately they don't sell GL switches alone. So I would love to know closest equivalents as even you say this are not stock kailh chock. I see a lot of bad blood just because people have tendency to hate big companies. I would also love to hate. But like linux, everyone says it's better in many ways but almost none can use it as replacement to os x or wirdows because of lack of software or other lacks that are this little "something missing". Price doesn't matter when it comes to switches. I would pay double. Just show me better switches than GL. Low profile tactile I want.
0:45 - Clicky
1:50 - Linear
2:02 - Tactile
@Mayonnaise TV yessir 👍🏼
THANK YOU for being the only video I could find like 5 years later that effectively demonstrates the tactile "bump"
finally someone that's not just hammering the keys but also presses them in a way you normally would do
Omfg yeah I watched this review of the razer huntsman mercury and this dude was dangerously, boarderline smashing his keyboard

anyone else notice the bug crawling on his desk when he was showing the clicky keyboard
Straight to the Point Video!
Keep it up BRO!
Thank you so much... the sound of Clicky has made me say NOPE so I'm torn between Tactile and Linear... what to do!
so ive been looking into this keyboard for a while cus I really wanted it. i got it and its linear and well one thing I noticed while playing games is that the keys are not picking up some of my keystrokes and that I have to press a bit harder than I like. i notice if press the key a bit away from the center then sometimes the keypress will not register unless the force is even more
Ok so does that mean the Tactile switches do a good job of preventing accidental presses from the side of the keys?
I bought the tactile. Pricey but love this keyboard. For your volume wheel do you have a delay?
I just checked and the volume adjusts instantly when I roll the volume wheel. You might check your drivers and make sure you are current.
OverclockersClub it’s better now but sometimes it lags just a little. I’m loving this keyboard but using the g513 I still have to get used to the low profile lol.
@@Blaquegold Just curious. In Russia I need to work about 120 hours to buy this, what about you?)
@@Vladian100 Something like 25 or 30 hours. I'm still a part-time student. (France)
It definitely does have a little delay if you repeatedly roll it up and down, tested it and found it. But for normal use, you'll feel it reacts instantaneously anyway.
Thank you very much for this review. I guess I will go with linear, as I dont like mechanical keyboards in general

Clicky sucks but finding it hard to decide between linear and tactile. Think I’ll have to actually feel the difference
Yep - very subjective, and you can't decide without a test drive on each one.
I absolutely love the G915 I bought 2 of them clicky and tactile is good but I like the Linear best of all 👍👍👍
What tf are you smoking? Bought 2 but like the one that you didnt buy?

I understand that linear is the quietest :)
Thanks for the review. What switch would you recommend for gaming and a lot of typing (linear vs. tactile)?
That is hard to say - it is so subjective. Like trying to pick out clothes for someone else. If you like more sound from key actuation, then the clicky might be your style. I use the linear the most, but I am happy with all three styles.
I would prefere the brown ones because its not loud but you can feel the click while tiping.
This is usally true for all switches:
Lots of typing? Clicky.
Lots of gaming? Linear.
Lots of both? Tactile.
Witch one is better for gaming? 🤔
1 ) Is the membrane keyboard different from the linear? 2) Is the membrane keyboard different from the Tactile ? I mainly use a membrane keyboard and now I'm confused about which one to take.
the tactile will feel more like a membrane keyboard if that's what you're looking for
Please review mx for long typing sessions
But how's gaming on the clicky is it doable?
Can u help me bro please? Which one is the best of this for gaming?
I hate clicky keys so much. With the explosive popularity of "clicky" keys it's been difficult to find a good quiet keyboard! I'm thinking the linear might be my best bet now after hearing it 🙌
Very helpful, thank you!
What do you guys think is better?
Bonjour avez vous un lien pour commander un lineaire (fr) car je ne trouve pas ???? mERCI CORDIALEMENT
thanks for the helpfull video :D
Could they have possibly made this keeb any bigger?
finally a video with less talking shit and more demonstration
Would you say the Linear is quieter than the Tactile switches?
Athmond thanks man. I ended up getting the linear. Love it.
@@mykeexe1042 Hey man, I've tried the Tactile but not the Linear.
On the tactile I noticed when the keys are pushed slowly it feels kind of mushy towards the bottom of the keystroke.
Is the same true for the Linear model you have?
GOD DAAAAAAAAAAAAMN IT, which is the name of the first keystrokes!!!!!!!
so this is why i cant get my hands on any of these keyboards, this guy keeps buying them all XD
Lmao Check dells website, they have all models in stock
After buying this keyboard today, I feel like some kind of joke was played on me. No lit legends for shift characters on number keys, and bizarrely, no num lock light? The G keys on the left side are useless and make the keyboard too long.
Agree with you on the shift characters, but the G keys are the only reason I bought this board.
@@ARTofTY-TV What do you use them for?

way too much non-value talking over the keyboard sound while typing
Ужас, когда свичи сравнивают, зачем что то бормотать в микрофон.
