| Captain_Yuri said: It could just be me but my last keyboard was a Corsair K70 and the LEDs died within 2 months and I didn't even use them heavily. It really made the keyboard look ugly and I really hated that. Those were Brown switches in case you wanted to know and they feel really good and don't make a whole lot of noise which is something that I like. My old G15 lasted 7 years without a single light dying. |
Could have just been a faulty keyboard. Warranty is really good in Australia, it would be replaced instantly by the business... No dealing with shipping etc'. - And the warranty on the K70 is 2 years here.
| Captain_Yuri said: I am currently using a The Logitech G910 Orion Spectrum and it is a god send compared to the Corsair one cause if nothing else, the RGB Leds have yet to die and knowing Logitech, they probably never will. It uses Romer G switches which while doesn't have the satisfying click the reds do, they are still really good. It also has this docking thing sorta deal where u can put your smartphone in and download the logitech app and use your smartphone as an LCD display like the old keyboards. |
The RGB LEDS in my old G19 didn't die either. Although... It wasn't per-key RGB LEDS... And it was super super dim.
But using a keyboard right now that doesn't have LED back lighting made me realize how important of a feature it was.
Not keen on using my smartphone as a display, it's just extra stuffing around in my eyes.
| Captain_Yuri said: So that's my recommendation. The key with the Logitech G910 is that there are two versions. One where all the keys are weird and the other one where only the WASD/G-keys are weird. Not uncomfortable but they aren't the shape of the normal keys. You will see what I mean if you take a look at the pictures but the Logitech G910 Orion Spectrum is the one you want to get if you go for logitech. Certainly try out the Romer-G switches before you buy it though! |
I love the volume roller bar on the G910.
In-fact, it's media/function/macro keys seem very G19-like.
It even has the windows key lockout.
Only big complaint is that it's made from plastic, I'll place it in the consideration basket, cheers!

Likely their Transformers license has expired.
