![]() ![]() Looking at my local tech hardware store, they have the Logitech G810 Orion Spectrum on quite the sale (), but this has the ROMER-G Mechanical Switches, so throw that into the mix and now I am confused on what to get.Īny subject mater experts out there point me to the right direction? I want a decently new keyboard (late 2015 release), I could care less about the RGB leds (as long as it is back-lit that is fine so I can see the keys easy), I want it to be durable. It seems the landscape has changed quite a bit and there are plenty of new mechanical keyboards out there.įrom my research, it seems the Cherry MX Brown or Cherry MX Blue would be the best option. I use my computer 85% of the time for work (sysadmin) and 15% for gaming. It was a good keyboard for its time, but I need to replace it. The G710+ features a thick rubber/plastic cable which at its end has two USB connectors, one to power the keyboard and one for the pass-through USB port.Īs soon as you will plug the keyboard in all of the keys will light up like a Christmas tree (you can adjust the backlight of the arrow/WASD keys separately from all the other ones).I am looking to get a new keyboard, the one I currently own (purchased sometimes in 2011) is a MIONIX Zibal which is a Cherry MX Black switches keyboard. Right above the F keys we see 3 mode keys, a built-in macro recording key, a game/desktop key (disables the windows keys), backlight keys (control the dual zone backlight level) and four media keys.Īs mentioned earlier Logitech has used Cherry MX Brown switches (with white backlight) for the G710+.Ī USB 2.0 port is placed at the front of the unit and although it's not very easy to access i think it's a lot better there than on the right side.Īt the base of the keyboard we see 2 large stands, 4 large rubber feet and two cable routing spots (the palm rest also has 3 small rubber feet).Īlthough i didn't have even the slightest issue with the angle of the keyboard during the two weeks of testing the two stands don't really lift it much off the ground. The G710+ also comes with a total of 6 programmable G-keys placed vertically on the far left side.Īside the usual scroll/caps/Num lock LEDs on the right upper side the G710+ also has a mute key and a volume roller. Logitech has used different color caps for the arrow and WASD keys a feature obviously aimed at gamers. ![]() The Logitech logo is placed on a long silver plate at the bottom center of the keyboard. The only thing neither of us liked when testing the G710+ is the palm rest which is made by let’s just say not the best hard plastic material in the world. For a gaming keyboard the Logitech G710+ is not really large and comes with a rather impressive design compared to most mechanical keyboards (for gamers mostly).Īs you can see although the G710+ has extra media and macro buttons it is only slightly larger than the Model S by Das Keyboard (which is a good thing). ![]()
