I have the g915 clicky. It's mediocore in all respects. The keystroke is too long, despite the shortened keycaps that imply a shorter throw, but in reality just exposes the keyboard to crumbs, lint, hair etc. I've pulled a cat hair out that was triggering the g key with tweezers. It's garbage. The G keys bug the other keys if you haven't set it up. F*ck that. They're also about three millimeters too close. Yeah, it matters. I agree the keyboard is "too long," but not because it's too big, because there's no shoulder on it at all. Which is deceptive. You end up moving it too close to the mouse because the edge and the key positions are off and your brain is trying to maximize the space. My next keyboard will be an IBM 4704. I'm done with this nonsense.

I know this is your first keyboard review so I have a couple of critiques. First, the video is 17:41 minutes long. It should’ve been 17:42 because 17:41 is just too short. Second, I saw a spec of dust on the keyboard when looking through my handy dandy magnifying glass. Other than that, this was the best keyboard review on TH-cam; trust me I checked. It took me almost a month to decide on a keyboard. I ended up going with Razer huntsman Elite, but had I seen this review, I would’ve probably chosen this one. Thanks man and great reviews as always.
Dammit. Next time I’ll go into more detail to squeeze in that extra second. Also, my girlfriend was laughing and blowing on the monitor when we watched it before posting it because of all the dust looool Thank you so much for the support!
Just got myself the G915 TKL with GL Linear switches (red) and I can say that I love it. Very quiet for a mechanical keyboard. I think the low profile helps as well with this. At first I was thinking for the full size, but after I saw the TKL has 10 hours longer life for battery and numpad is just for dust (for me). I got it for 150$. I think it's the real price for it
I'm a software engineer and I'm rocking the GMMK TKL, kinda missing the numpad and media controls, I'm also on a quest for the least wires setup, not much choices in the market at the moment sadly.
The Caps-Lock key is stepped to keep you from hitting it by accident by creating more separation in-between the A key and the Caps Lock key. TMYK :) Good review.
Or use the free tool "Caps unlocker" its a free tool of 32kb. After installing, Only pressing the CAPS has no result. To set the capslock, you have to press the shift and the capslock together. So hitting the the capslock by accident is no longer possible. You're welcome.
"There's nothing wrong with it, I just like new stuff..." Is probably what will be written on my tombstone once I've been slain by the emptiness slowly making its way from my wallet to my fridge and stomach
I've had the 915TKL in white (which only comes in Tactile) for about 6 months and it is one of my favorite keyboards. I was upgrading from the Steel Series original Apex Pro so this was a big upgrade. I didn't like that the White version doesn't get a choice of key types, but I've been fine with the tactile not having experienced the others. The build quality has been great so far, but mine came with a black, rubberized cable, not a braided one, so it doesn't match, looks bad, and I'm afraid it won't last as long as the keyboard. I appreciate being able to switch between light speed/bluetooth with a button press to hop between typing on my Windows PC and my Mac. I pair it with my Razer Tartarus Pro in White and the Razer Atheris in White so it all looks pretty good together. I've enjoyed it so much, I'm getting the black G915TKL (linear) and the Corsair K63 lap board for console gaming on my couch.
This is a really superb review, thankyou so much for taking the time to put this together. Now that bricks-and-mortar stores typically do not stock much hardware, or no longer exist, or are corporate owned (such as Apple) it is all the more important and useful for high quality reviews such as this. Many thanks again!
This is the best review of Logitech G915 on whole Internet. You pointed all the things in detailed way. I love the way you compared the switches. You are ready to become the best electronic equipment reviewer in TH-cam! Keep your videos as great as this one is!
9:17 What a sick combo. It's the one I have and I highly recommend it to anyone with money to spend! It goes with any setup Logitech G915 TKL + Razer Viper Ultimate
@@im_Spade_ I long moved from 915, it's a sexy keyboard if u barely touch it but the keycaps are so flimsy and cheap, the font wears off pretty fast. Hope ur getting it for a good price
@@SamLoki basically full price, though I'm getting geek squad and if I "accidentally spill water on it" after the keys wear out...hey, new keyboard for $50
The way I fixed the number pad problem is by buying a 3rd party one. It sits on my desk above my mouse, and I use it for data entry such as 2FA and budgeting numbers. I still find number pads super valuable (which is why I paid good money for a mechanical switch version), but I actually use my mouse about 2-5" away from my keyboard as I primary type (I'm a software engineer). It's far more comfortable to use a TKL model which is why I personally switched about 6 years ago.
Sorry to reply to such an old post, but I found your comment super helpful. I was considering switching to a TKL keyboard form factor for more mouse space (and also for a cleaner desk), but was still thinking about all those times I like to use a numpad, entering passwords, doing calculations, sometimes using for controls (helicopter/plane games, or older games that are controlled by the numpad). Basically, as dispensable as the numpad might appear, it's actually incredibly useful and I wouldn't want to miss it. Your suggestions to get a separate 3rd party numpad is just excellent. Like you said, that way you can still use it when needed (having it above your mouse, or under your monitor, out of the way), and still get a TKL keyboard for a clean desk. I really appreciate the eye-opening suggestion.
I forgot to mention that the reason battery indicator is set to flash at 15% is that under 20% every electronic device that uses lithium battery, create huge stress on the battery. This means the more you keep it unde 20% the faster your battery will die and the fewer cycles you can have.
Thanks for describing the difference between tactile, linear, and clicky! I'm a keyboard baby and didn't know what those meant, and I didn't know what type I tried at the electronics store until I watched your video :) (it had probably been linear, since I was surprised by how much I liked the feeling of not having to press so hard)
Typing on my G915TKL - Love this keyboard we bought from india G913 is same no difference from furper store. The sound is really amazing on G913/G915 tkl and best performance.
I used to have the K95 Keyboard and really like the scrolling audio wheel, what I didn't like is how HUGE it is, very long and got in the way of my mouse. I did however enjoy using the keyboard but I killed it by spilling a cup of tea on it.
its hard to describe it but the GL Swithches feel a little less mechanical but still very satisfying. i really love the clicky ones because they are clicky but the sound is very gentle imo. the only thing i dislike about the keyboard is the key holding mechanic but i normally never take the switches off what makes it nearly irrelevant. Man i really hope your channel grows...you are basically a more energetic version of Optimum Tech. ALL THE BEST
great video!! this helped me so much when trying to choose which Logitech keyboard I wanted to buy, slightly long but worth the time it took to watch it all!!! keep up the great work!!! :)
@@MechaPlays i got the red linear switches i love the keyboard very simple great keyboard i will be using it for a very lontime...it also is great with the macros and volume scroll wheel
Worth noting is that the FN key on the TKL keyboard is not reprogrammable. It does not send a signal to the computer when pressed on its own. You're out of luck if you want to use it as a right Windows key (or as the Compose key in my case) and use for example the Pause or PrtSc key as the FN key instead, which IMHO is a much more sensible placement of FN than the bottom row.
Micro USB = NOT WORTH IT. I've broken enough micro USB ports to know these are not worth it in 2020. ABS = NOT WORTH IT. Seriously, for the price, they couldn't afford PBT? (Not metal like mentioned, of course) PRICE = NOT WORTH IT. I use a $70 low profile keyboard, both TKL and full. Only difference is they are wired. $200 for wireless? No thanks. Cheaper keyboards manage to have PBT keycaps on them, at less than $100, and some have USB C. The price and materials used just do not compute. ... In my opinion, it is just overpriced. Logitech was once a good brand, that went the way of the Apple and Razer when it comes to premium prices, but does not have the materials and parts to back it up.

I have to say, this is my absolute dream keyboard. It looks sooo good and I wanted a low profile keyboard with mechanical switches for a long time now from logitech. Had to wait a year to buy this, and it will arrive tomorrow. Got the 915 full size. I am very excited :)
Hi, sorry for responding to a comment a year old, but I'm planning on buying this keyboard (logitech 915 full size) and I was curious as to how you find it after a year. Are you happy with the performance? I saw someone saying that some of buttons start to wear down after a while or that characters become less visible
@@Tho-mas888responding a year later to this, i've been rocking my fullsize g915 for two 3 years now. I don't know what they're talking about with characters becoming less visible over time. They've probably been eating cheetos during their gaming sessions 😅 I'm a software developer so i use this keyboard for 8 hours a day at work, and then another few hours at home. Haven't experienced any wear at all, even after 3 years the thing still looks brand new. Only a few minor complaints with this keyboard: 1. The rubber buttons do indeed suck and are very offputting 2. I wish i would've gotten the TKL version 3. Due to the keyboard being low profile, it's very hard to find replacement keys. I still have all of mine, but this could be a problem. Modding the keycaps will be even harder. The low profile does however give alot of ergonomic advantages though. 😊
Holy crap, this review is freakin’ awesome! Tons of details, close ups and more... Keyboards drive me nuts! I’ve had the MX Keys for 8 weeks and am hating it. Want to go back to the Microsoft Comfort 5000 I been using for 5+ years, but Logitech make the BEST mouse wheel anywhere. Keep doing this mate, loving this review. Might replace this crappy MX Keys with the G915...
I like the way you review stuff. I just bought the tactile version of this keyboard. Thank you for the excellent review. (The clicky sound drives me crazy, tactile's middle ground, linear's got no feedback on the fingers).
I just got this keyboard over a week ago. Truely an amazing keyboard so far. It is great looking and incredibly thin. I got the clicky version, it is not loud at all. The click sound provides a great feedback and is pretty satisfying. And it doesn't have issue like a lot of other RGB keyboard -- light leaking out from the gap of the keys. I also find the volume wheel very useful. So far, a great purchase.
Thank you for this review! Been planning to get this for myself but quite skeptical coz it's pricey. Nevertheless it's a good review. More power to your channel. I subscribed ☺️☺️☺️
Can u compare steelseries full keyboard line up, apex 3, 5, 7 and the pro one (there are tkl models to all of them as well) i tjink this would make a great top teir to low tier compression and there are really no reviews on them anywhere. ALSO WTF HOW DID U AFFORD THIS VIDEO
difference btween bijan and other reviewers is that he talks from a User pov not an advertiser like some others do -.- and i say that because i have this keyboard for a while now and every single word he says i experianced / know so he talks the truth about products Thank you biji
Bro Please answer to my Question between the LOGITECH G915 TKL and the KEYCHRON K3 V2. Which one is more flat ad has a shorter pressaction? Which one is faster with cable? Because i dont need Bluetooth its not so important for me it's important that i have less MS latency. And at least which one is more quit with the red optical switches? Please its very important to me. I using it for cs go. And the support of Keychron write to me that the keychron hast 30 milliseconds wireless and 13 seconds in wired mode but i cant find anything about the LOGITECH G915 TKL
Thanks for the great video bro! when i was done watching it I wanted to give a thumbs up and was shocked by how many subs you have, I thought you had over 1 mil lol
I recommend buying a deskpad that allows you to fit both your keyboard and your mouse on it. It'll make the keyboard sound different, and in a better way (imo). Stacking coins on top of the keys is also a good way to measure their actuation force and whatnot.
Awesome video! was looking for a comparison of all the switches on the g915 (or g815 for wired version.. cheaper ) Going to get the Linear version wired. Think i just found the perfect keyboard, super simple design, low profile, and quiet key caps.. lets get it . time to upgrade this bulky g610 brown mx one i got
I've bought a g915 tkl with tactile switches 3 months ago and I am pretty impressed with it. I played 4 hours straight, my joints,fingers weren't tired at all, plus I am a couch gamer, g915 tkl, has everything I need.
just got this keyboard last week and love the design, functionality, build-quality, and design. I found 100% brightness distracting, so had been on the second darkest setting, it's been 5 days and it's still at 85% battery I'm impressed :)

The prices can’t be justified since keyboards industry is stacked now, you buy mechanical keyboard for it’s switches and stabilizers which doesn’t look premium here
I know I’m 7 months late, but you said to give you advice as this was your first keyboard review. It’s just a small thing, but I would have liked to see the software for the keyboard. Other than that, the review was really good and thorough. Thank you!
This is, by far, the best g915 review I have found online. Thank you! Btw, I recently bought the linear version of they keyboard. I can't say I am very excited about the quality/feeling of the switches. I will probably send it back.
every youtuber: "I got rid of the ten key pad its great" Me: "pry it out of my cold dead hands." I love my 10 key and use it all the time when doing number things. I was also once an accountant so I will always have a sweet spot for it.
@@BijanJamshidi I can understand that. I just thought it was kinda funny that I had watched like 3 or 4 videos about this series of keyboards to include this one were 3 out of the 4 people (jayz2cents being the outlier) were making the switch to being without it. That being said I can't stand laptops with number pads but that's because I feel like they are off center. but all of my regular keyboards have number pads to include my logitech k360 which almost like a laptop keyboard but wireless and has the number pad(but the arrow keys are where they would be on a laptop and the other keys like home and end are above the number pad) that I use for my raspberry pi with retropie when needing to type commands and such.
It's like you have a direct link to my "saved for later" buying lists. First my aw2521hf, now this keyboard. I'd appreciate it if you were nicer to my wallet lol
First :)) No jokes though, this is an amazing review for your first keyboard review! Definitely excited for the cheaper keyboard coming soon to see what you think about the price difference between both of them and if it's a worth buy for the G915!
Linear switches feels like a elevator button. No feedback until you press all the way. Tactile switches has a tactile feedback half way through think of it as iPhone home button or DSLR CAMERA where you half press to focus and full press to take the shot. Clicky switch feels like tactile switch, but also give you audible feedback. Youvdont think it will do much but it gives you a feedback knowing your keys got registered. With android phone you can simulate this. Linear switch - put your phone in silent and type. No viberation on keystroke Tactile switch - phone on silent but vibrate on key stroke ( vibration is the tactile feedback) Clicky Switch - volume on vibrate on key stroke. You will hear the keys clicking and feel it.
So I originally bought the g915 clicky switches to replace my g810, but I missed the feeling of using the g810's tactile switches. However, I love the lower profile of the g915... so I just bought a g915 tkl tactile switch for $157 before tax (my normal g915 was $145 before tax) 😅
Why didn't you choose the Pro X keyboard which is also a tkl Kb, and looks so familiar to the 810. Im at the point right know coming from 810 as well and want a smaller keyboard
@@BrickBazooka I wanted a wireless keyboard for some reason, even though I'd be using the wire to charge the keyboard, and I really like the look of the low profile it has. But since posting my comment I bought a Razer 65% wireless keyboard and I can't stop using it because is so small 😅. But to answer your question, I don't know why I didn't just get the G Pro X since it's the same price.
Time to start browsing r/mechanicalkeboards my dude. That k95 has got to go. Something like quality stabilizers make such a huge difference in the typing experience. Corsair puts some of the worst, if not the worst, stabilizers in their keyboards. I'm sure you'll find something dope that fits your wireless needs.
Just managed to get the clicky for £80/$105 brand new (last listing UK Amazon), then watched this afterwards and don't regret my decision ;) Thanks for the video!
It almost feels like the shortcomings of this keyboard are left in so they can slowly "innovate" and fix them in future versions. I really wanted to get the TKL version but this feels too fragile to be worth 200$+ Inb4 better keycaps and no rubber crap in a year or two. Ps. really good work man!
I personally think that you adapt to the keyboard you use and thus you think you prefer one more than the other, it just depends what your used to, and you can be used to any style if your willing to give other things a chance.
I never use macros and I have no idea what G-keys are? I would much prefer the full size model didn't have the macro keys as it just makes the keyboard FAR too long, I use the number pad several times every day so its something I want at least on the PC I use most throughout the day but that along with macro buttons, its FAR too long, it just gets in the way. I would however quite like this TKL version for my gaming PC. I have the Logitech MX3 Mouse and matching Keys keyboard which along with having the keypad and is 100% wireless and has great white RGB for lighting, its also has extremely long battery life and I rarely plug them in, both the keyboard and mouse also have really quiet switches which is what I prefer as its more relaxing, I don't want the noise of clicky buttons.

ABS = NOT WORTH IT. Seriously, for the price, they couldn't afford PBT?
(Not metal like mentioned, of course)
PRICE = NOT WORTH IT. I use a $70 low profile keyboard, both TKL and full. Only difference is they are wired. $200 for wireless? No thanks.
Cheaper keyboards manage to have PBT keycaps on them, at less than $100, and some have USB C.
The price and materials used just do not compute.
...
In my opinion, it is just overpriced. Logitech was once a good brand, that went the way of the Apple and Razer when it comes to premium prices, but does not have the materials and parts to back it up.
silverberet Which keyboard do you use? (The $70 one)
@@alexvswrld HAVIT low profile keyboards. They use Kaihl choc switches HV-KB395L for the full size and HV-KB390L for TKL.

I have to say, this is my absolute dream keyboard. It looks sooo good and I wanted a low profile keyboard with mechanical switches for a long time now from logitech. Had to wait a year to buy this, and it will arrive tomorrow. Got the 915 full size. I am very excited :)
Hi, sorry for responding to a comment a year old, but I'm planning on buying this keyboard (logitech 915 full size) and I was curious as to how you find it after a year. Are you happy with the performance? I saw someone saying that some of buttons start to wear down after a while or that characters become less visible
@@Tho-mas888responding a year later to this, i've been rocking my fullsize g915 for two 3 years now.
I don't know what they're talking about with characters becoming less visible over time. They've probably been eating cheetos during their gaming sessions 😅
I'm a software developer so i use this keyboard for 8 hours a day at work, and then another few hours at home. Haven't experienced any wear at all, even after 3 years the thing still looks brand new.
Only a few minor complaints with this keyboard:
1. The rubber buttons do indeed suck and are very offputting
2. I wish i would've gotten the TKL version
3. Due to the keyboard being low profile, it's very hard to find replacement keys. I still have all of mine, but this could be a problem. Modding the keycaps will be even harder.
The low profile does however give alot of ergonomic advantages though.
😊
The amount of view baffles my mind in proportion to the video quality. Awesome awesome review my guy!
First time on your channel. Love your review. Left with all questions answered. Subbed.
Digging up that video - 1st thanks for the comparison - and 2nd, what's the reference of your apple watch band ? I love it - thanks
before buying keep in mind the shortcut macro keys on the left would be distracting for some. certainly did for me
Excellent review! This channel is awesome. Subscribed and liked the video. Excellent presentation too!
Holy crap, this review is freakin’ awesome! Tons of details, close ups and more... Keyboards drive me nuts! I’ve had the MX Keys for 8 weeks and am hating it. Want to go back to the Microsoft Comfort 5000 I been using for 5+ years, but Logitech make the BEST mouse wheel anywhere. Keep doing this mate, loving this review. Might replace this crappy MX Keys with the G915...
I hate the usb A but boy, the ergonomics for this keyboard is king
This was really detailed , thank you . Can we use this keyboard wired ? while it's charging ? What anti-ghosting is on it ?
I like the way you review stuff. I just bought the tactile version of this keyboard. Thank you for the excellent review. (The clicky sound drives me crazy, tactile's middle ground, linear's got no feedback on the fingers).
How has it held up?
@@im_Spade_ Battery not yet degraded. Still good, I love this keyboard.
Doug DeMuro son? Is that you ? The introduction resembles his car introduction reviews hahaha just kiddings. Great review, great video.
Fantastic review. First review I have seen of yours. Great work. Thank you. Subbed and liked :)
switching from razer too logitech keyboard and this review gived me a very clear view why. nice Review ! :3
the indent on caps is so you dont press it accidentally when pressing a. happened a lot on my old keyboard
Thanks, you made me make a good decision by buying the TKL :) . Linear is awesome and I'm coming from a APEX 350 ( Steelseries )
I have daily drove this keyboard for work for about 5 months now, I literally cannot go back to any other keyboard
I just got this keyboard over a week ago. Truely an amazing keyboard so far. It is great looking and incredibly thin. I got the clicky version, it is not loud at all. The click sound provides a great feedback and is pretty satisfying. And it doesn't have issue like a lot of other RGB keyboard -- light leaking out from the gap of the keys. I also find the volume wheel very useful. So far, a great purchase.
After 1+ year, is it still a good keyboard?
@@MiXiIaire absolutely. enjoying typing on it everyday
do you still use this and still very good?
@@wattsy8511 oh yeah! Still great.
typing to you one this keyboard right now
Thank you for this review! Been planning to get this for myself but quite skeptical coz it's pricey. Nevertheless it's a good review. More power to your channel. I subscribed ☺️☺️☺️
"im getting older im 26" okay
are you persian?Love to see persians doing great on youtube! great review
subbed immediately!
Yes
This is the best and most COMPLETE review on youtube, sub + like
Great review, thank you.
Come on u need to train your wrist so your woman can be happy.
Thanks ordered a linear TKL. New subscriber but I'm liking your videos
Are you happy with the keyboard after 10 month?
The picture of the "Crappy 20 dollar work keyboard" at 12:49 is the keyboard I'm using to type this right now.
🤣
Can u compare steelseries full keyboard line up, apex 3, 5, 7 and the pro one (there are tkl models to all of them as well) i tjink this would make a great top teir to low tier compression and there are really no reviews on them anywhere.
ALSO WTF HOW DID U AFFORD THIS VIDEO
difference btween bijan and other reviewers is that he talks from a User pov not an advertiser like some others do -.- and i say that because i have this keyboard for a while now and every single word he says i experianced / know so he talks the truth about products Thank you biji
Bro Please answer to my Question between the LOGITECH G915 TKL and the KEYCHRON K3 V2. Which one is more flat ad has a shorter pressaction? Which one is faster with cable? Because i dont need Bluetooth its not so important for me it's important that i have less MS latency. And at least which one is more quit with the red optical switches? Please its very important to me. I using it for cs go. And the support of Keychron write to me that the keychron hast 30 milliseconds wireless and 13 seconds in wired mode but i cant find anything about the LOGITECH G915 TKL
After 2 years paint just comes out of keycaps of this garbage. For the price - unbelievable.
I have the reddragon k619 which copied the mushy media buttons and tbh I really like it for some reason
Thanks for the great video bro! when i was done watching it I wanted to give a thumbs up and was shocked by how many subs you have, I thought you had over 1 mil lol
6:57 you what? XD was that serious or was it a joke i can't tell,
can't handle some rubber buttons, huh? must be a harsh world out there young padawan
I recommend buying a deskpad that allows you to fit both your keyboard and your mouse on it. It'll make the keyboard sound different, and in a better way (imo). Stacking coins on top of the keys is also a good way to measure their actuation force and whatnot.
oh wow, didn’t even think of that. I’ll try that next! Thank you
@@BijanJamshidi Always use a deskpad! haha.
great review! A lot better than the others I've seen
I think the sound of the keys on the Logitech site is how they sound to the keyboard, not to the user. :-)
Awesome video! was looking for a comparison of all the switches on the g915 (or g815 for wired version.. cheaper ) Going to get the Linear version wired. Think i just found the perfect keyboard, super simple design, low profile, and quiet key caps.. lets get it . time to upgrade this bulky g610 brown mx one i got
Legit nice review Bijan
I've bought a g915 tkl with tactile switches 3 months ago and I am pretty impressed with it. I played 4 hours straight, my joints,fingers weren't tired at all, plus I am a couch gamer, g915 tkl, has everything I need.
Love the food scale test :D
just got this keyboard last week and love
the design, functionality, build-quality, and design.
I found 100% brightness distracting, so had been on
the second darkest setting, it's been 5 days and it's still at 85% battery
I'm impressed :)

The prices can’t be justified since keyboards industry is stacked now, you buy mechanical keyboard for it’s switches and stabilizers which doesn’t look premium here
How many are wireless and low profile? Not many reliable options if any with those features, even if they don't matter to you
It goes on sale for 170 all the time if you broke just say that
@@Richard-rp6ns don’t cry😂
I know I’m 7 months late, but you said to give you advice as this was your first keyboard review. It’s just a small thing, but I would have liked to see the software for the keyboard. Other than that, the review was really good and thorough. Thank you!
This is, by far, the best g915 review I have found online. Thank you! Btw, I recently bought the linear version of they keyboard. I can't say I am very excited about the quality/feeling of the switches. I will probably send it back.
This is an overpriced POS for ABS keycaps. The keycaps have deteriorated after 2 years of solid use.
Thank you for the great review! I was in the processes of purchasing this keyboard and this helped out a lot!
wow bro, 7k subs....first keyboard review????? you knocked it out of the park with this video!!
every youtuber: "I got rid of the ten key pad its great" Me: "pry it out of my cold dead hands." I love my 10 key and use it all the time when doing number things. I was also once an accountant so I will always have a sweet spot for it.
I can't go back. I use it too little.
@@BijanJamshidi I can understand that. I just thought it was kinda funny that I had watched like 3 or 4 videos about this series of keyboards to include this one were 3 out of the 4 people (jayz2cents being the outlier) were making the switch to being without it. That being said I can't stand laptops with number pads but that's because I feel like they are off center. but all of my regular keyboards have number pads to include my logitech k360 which almost like a laptop keyboard but wireless and has the number pad(but the arrow keys are where they would be on a laptop and the other keys like home and end are above the number pad) that I use for my raspberry pi with retropie when needing to type commands and such.
I was thinking exactly the same and end up getting one. :)
It's like you have a direct link to my "saved for later" buying lists. First my aw2521hf, now this keyboard. I'd appreciate it if you were nicer to my wallet lol
😈
First :)) No jokes though, this is an amazing review for your first keyboard review! Definitely excited for the cheaper keyboard coming soon to see what you think about the price difference between both of them and if it's a worth buy for the G915!
Nope
I beat you by 4 seconds 😂
@@JasonGT95 Sort by newest first ;)
@TechnoDrop 😂
Thank you, Vimto! I'm excited too. Hopefully the KeyChron is close to this!
Linear switches feels like a elevator button. No feedback until you press all the way.
Tactile switches has a tactile feedback half way through think of it as iPhone home button or DSLR CAMERA where you half press to focus and full press to take the shot.
Clicky switch feels like tactile switch, but also give you audible feedback. Youvdont think it will do much but it gives you a feedback knowing your keys got registered.
With android phone you can simulate this.
Linear switch - put your phone in silent and type. No viberation on keystroke
Tactile switch - phone on silent but vibrate on key stroke ( vibration is the tactile feedback)
Clicky Switch - volume on vibrate on key stroke. You will hear the keys clicking and feel it.
good review, well done !
The 915 TKL is going to go so well with my G Pro Wireless 😍😍 thanks for the killer review again!
thx for your critic man
So I originally bought the g915 clicky switches to replace my g810, but I missed the feeling of using the g810's tactile switches. However, I love the lower profile of the g915... so I just bought a g915 tkl tactile switch for $157 before tax (my normal g915 was $145 before tax) 😅
Why didn't you choose the Pro X keyboard which is also a tkl Kb, and looks so familiar to the 810. Im at the point right know coming from 810 as well and want a smaller keyboard
@@BrickBazooka I wanted a wireless keyboard for some reason, even though I'd be using the wire to charge the keyboard, and I really like the look of the low profile it has. But since posting my comment I bought a Razer 65% wireless keyboard and I can't stop using it because is so small 😅.
But to answer your question, I don't know why I didn't just get the G Pro X since it's the same price.
@@DankBlank for me Im lost between g915tkl, g815 and pro x all in tactile, can't decide:(
Time to start browsing r/mechanicalkeboards my dude. That k95 has got to go. Something like quality stabilizers make such a huge difference in the typing experience. Corsair puts some of the worst, if not the worst, stabilizers in their keyboards. I'm sure you'll find something dope that fits your wireless needs.
it's been two months, still miss the enter key on the num pad. still hitting the right arrow lol
Just managed to get the clicky for £80/$105 brand new (last listing UK Amazon), then watched this afterwards and don't regret my decision ;)
Thanks for the video!
It almost feels like the shortcomings of this keyboard are left in so they can slowly "innovate" and fix them in future versions.
I really wanted to get the TKL version but this feels too fragile to be worth 200$+
Inb4 better keycaps and no rubber crap in a year or two.
Ps. really good work man!
I agree which is why I was looking for other options. Here’s to hoping the Keychain K1 is as good as the Logitech but for 1/3rd the cost!
@@BijanJamshidi Keychron k1 is bluetooth though? Wouldn´t really cut it for my csgo addiciton.
WHERES THE SOUND TEST to compare the switches? :( Did i miss it or something? It's why i clicked this video >:(
I personally think that you adapt to the keyboard you use and thus you think you prefer one more than the other, it just depends what your used to, and you can be used to any style if your willing to give other things a chance.
Man, I don't believe this is your first Keyboard review. :D You did a better job than whole Linus media group. Keep it up. :)
Did you notice any lag with the volume wheel and the volume actually changing? Linus mentioned this but thought I'd check around.
Never used the num pad on any keyboards I ever owned so glad I chose the tkl
I wish I could get rid of the number pad, but excel....
I never use macros and I have no idea what G-keys are? I would much prefer the full size model didn't have the macro keys as it just makes the keyboard FAR too long, I use the number pad several times every day so its something I want at least on the PC I use most throughout the day but that along with macro buttons, its FAR too long, it just gets in the way. I would however quite like this TKL version for my gaming PC. I have the Logitech MX3 Mouse and matching Keys keyboard which along with having the keypad and is 100% wireless and has great white RGB for lighting, its also has extremely long battery life and I rarely plug them in, both the keyboard and mouse also have really quiet switches which is what I prefer as its more relaxing, I don't want the noise of clicky buttons.
I got the g915 fullsize because I use the numpad and I regret nothing
Great video, but the caps lock @ 9:05 is in most gaming or non-gaming keyboards
nice video brother! can you review the top tier steel series keyboard. i forgot the name
It’s called the apex pro
Edit: the apex pro and the apex pro tkl
rxse_ oh ok thanks for letting me know!
