Review on Logitech Backlit Mechanical Keyboard Passthrough by Cool Martin

Revainrating 1 out of 5

It's built like a tank

Received this keyboard today. If there are any durability issues I'll update this review accordingly, but I don't see that as a problem. It's built like a tank. It has enough weight not to be easily moved on the table, which I like. This is the most stylish gaming keyboard I've ever seen. It's beautiful in its simplicity. I really like the clean layout. I even like that the buttons float above the board instead of being sunken into it, as this keeps a lot of dust from collecting. Even a small LED backlight under the keys adds to the aesthetic by adding a subtle glow under the keys. I love the switches on this thing. They run very clean and are quieter than other mechanisms I've tried. They can also be used more quietly if you are careful as they go off very early. Typing and playing is effortless on this board and I really like it. It's still louder than a membrane keyboard, but not by much. I feel like I'm lightly touching the buttons rather than pressing them. This is a definite improvement over my old membrane keyboard. Overall, I'd say this keyboard is a steal for the $65 I bought it for and would recommend it to anyone who types heavily. If you only play occasionally I would save money.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than other picks
