Now, up until this point, I rather liked the G710+. Just make sure you are not typing in the bedroom while someone else is trying to sleep. What of the promise of “whisper quiet” keys? Well, these are still mechanical keys, after all, and they will make a din if you are particular about noise. I’m a touch-typist who’s not particularly nuts about mechanical keyboards – I use a Microsoft Ergonomic Desktop 7000 – but I can say the G710+ is generally pleasant to type on. Solid, with a springy response, they will wow mechanical keyboard fans. When it comes to typing, the mechanical keys work as advertised. Despite this, the size of the Logitech G710+ isn’t crazy big, unless if you pop in the detachable arm rest.

In other words, this is a full-fledged keyboard – not just a gaming keyboard. To complete the feature list, there’s also a USB pass-through port at the front of the keyboard, presumably to hook up your USB peripherals. I like it too that there are media buttons – and a nice scroller – to control the playback and volume of your tracks.

This means you don’t have to “bling on” the entire keyboard if it’s too bright in a dark room.Īlso included at the top of the keyboard is a Logitech gaming button, which disables the Windows key in games, so you don’t accidentally jump out of the action onto your desktop.

You can also separately set the brightness for your most important gaming keys – the A-W-S-D used in first-person shooters and the directional arrow keys. The backlight offers a nice white glow, whose brightness can be controlled directly on the keyboard without the need for software. With the G710+, you’ll either love or hate the orange styling that accompanies the USB connectors and special G keys that you can map game macros to.įortunately, other than that, Logitech has kept much of the multi-coloured craziness out of the design.

There’s also the bling that usually comes with any gaming accessories. Mechanical keyboards, with their click-clack sounds, are all the rage these days and Logitech’s G710+ marries that with gaming features that hardcore players are keen on.įor geeks, this is a combo that will surely attract, because of the tactile feel offered by the keys, as well as the durability that will be handy when it comes to long hours of banging on the keys.
