I'm looking for something that's good for typing (light weight, not too prone to accidental keypresses, some feedback to keep you from bottoming out) and also for gaming (again, light weight and not prone to unintended presses, but also smooth and responsive). Old_Fogie_Late_Bloomer - Tuesday, Octolink This is pretty much the first time I've heard someone say that the difference between browns and reds is subtle to the point of irrelevant.You've got tons of choices between old standbys like Das, Filco, Ducky, and even Rosewill's rebrands and newer entrants like Coolermaster, Corsair, Monoprice, and now Logitech. There's also plenty of variety on the market at this point, it's kinda silly to argue whether X manufacturer's model should use Y switch or Z switch based on what else is on the market. There isn't a best or better switch tho, there isn't even a better switch for typing or gaming, it's all subject to personal preference. A lot of people describe browns as an in-between reds and blues but to me browns feel much closer to reds. At the same time, if you've been using reds a while it's not hard to get used to the key travel and avoid bottoming out while typing, even without any tactile feedback.īlue's tactile click is world's apart IMO. A lot of it's very subjective tho, if you've been using browns a long time then you'll be more used to the slight bump. Vast majority of people that can deal with brown could deal with red,and vice versa. The tactile bump on browns is very very subtle, to the point that it's imperceptible while typing quickly if you're not used to it (a little more noticeable while gaming). I have keyboards with both types (K90 & a Rosewill) and to me they feel almost identical. Impulses - Tuesday, Octolink You're making way too big a deal out of the difference between browns and reds.The dirty secret is that enthusiast/gamer class hardware is oftentimes worth looking at for productivity purposes replacement keypads are routinely used by graphic artists for Photoshop shortcuts, and the increased precision and feedback of both quality gaming mice and keyboards is undoubtedly going to be useful to power users from any stripe.

The Logitech Gaming Software suite ultimately isn't quite as frustrating or bloated as it used to be, but it still needs to be pared down and I feel like aesthetically it could be more functional and direct and less ostentatious. My ancient-by-technology-standards G500 can have its buttons assigned to media playback keys and that configuration is stored on board with the G600 that feature is conspicuously absent and I received conflicting reports as to why. You lose context switching (where the hardware switches modes and configurations depending on the software running), which is expected, but the G600 actually operates at irritatingly reduced functionality in on-board mode. Unfortunately, in the case of both pieces of hardware, that does mean losing features. Thankfully both the G710+ and G600 can be programmed and have profiles stored in their on-board memory so you really only have to bother with the software once. I did speak to a rep on the phone and explained the issues I saw (button lighting not consistently working correctly in the software, DPI adjustments getting reversed), so hopefully those will be covered.

Being pestered for registration is aggravating, and while the keyboard side of the software seems to work smoothly, the mouse side is still buggy with the G600. I think this is cleaner than SetPoint or the software used for my G500 mouse, and it's easy to switch between the supported peripherals, but it still suffers from classic Logitech bloat. As with any peripheral, this is the weakest link in the experience. The preference on switches and keycaps is going to vary person to person, but I really like the Romer-G switches and the concave keycaps on the original G910.Logitech has condensed their software into a single suite, the Logitech Gaming Software. The major benefit in favor of Logitech keyboards and peripherals in general however is the much better gaming software, and one software controlling them all once you've bought into their ecosystem. Flush baseplates make cleaning much easier with just a spray of air or quick vacuum while the 'well' on Logitech makes them harder to clean. I've owned/used mechanical keyboards from Corsair, G.Skill, Razer and they are all similar build quality with some minor material/aesthetic differences (aluminum baseplates), with the only major benefit I prefer on some other keyboards being the flush baseplate rather than a key 'well'. Wife and I are both using G910s now and no issues, very happy with the keyboards. Click to expand.lol agreed, I heard the same complaints about the G710 before I bought it and used it for over a year without breaking any caps.
