Best thing for the money, glad I did it.

I can not say anything bad about this manufacturer. Logitech has delivered a great product as always. I have been using the G15 for several years now and now I have also bought the G13. Very satisfied! For those who are interested - I now have both connected and they have no conflicts. Profiles are configured for each of them separately, but they have the same software!
Who still doubts - make up your mind! The product is really worth it! You will never again be embarrassed by a short left shift or other problems! The button travel, though not short, is quiet and pleasant. Of course, you can’t compare with laptop ones, but if you press, then press! You can also write just huge macros. For example, 3D Instruktor (auto-driving): First you need to hold E (engine start) for a second, then B - buckle up, space - release the handbrake, Shift + 2 - squeeze the clutch and turn on first gear, and turn on the left turn signal. So I have all these actions set to one button! Just beautiful! Or a situation where you need to quickly press in any game alternately the left and then the right mouse button very quickly! And again, no problem. We write a macro and specify the minimum delays (0.001 sec.) between clicks. While we hold the programmed button - the cycle is performed! Isn't it lovely? Just a great solution for gamers!

Pros

1. Illumination of any color and for different profiles, you can also make your own. Select a color from a list or from a gradation. 2. Multi-position joystick. That is, not only the direction, but also the intensity of the slope. Defined in Windows as a calibrated gaming device. 3. The hand on the keyboard lies like a glove without discomfort. Of course, everyone's hands are different (I have a big one), but it doesn't cause any difficulties. 4. It is convenient to use even on the table under the right hand (more often in races), even under the left on your knees (also no problems)! 5. There is no binding to use W, S, A, D. You can scatter the buttons as you like. And even if the game does not support button reassignment - now this is not a problem. You can customize everything on your keyboard the way only YOU want! 6. High-quality performance of the device. Pleasant keys and not significant roughening (dimples) for the direction buttons (although no one obliges you to use them) and a very long cord (about 3 meters)! There is also an on/off button. backlight. Unfortunately, the backlight is one-level. There is no glow intensity and it turns off both the display and the backlighting of the keys at the same time, but this is more a plus than a minus. Well, if you are already very bright - choose a not very bright color! 7. The ability to assign to a key not only a single button, but also combinations of buttons and sequential pressing with any delay both between pressings and the duration of pressing!

Cons

What are the disadvantages here? There are none! In some reviews it is written that it takes getting used to - so this most getting used to will be about 15 minutes. The only thing that takes a lot of time is setting up a profile for each game, but the profile is automatically launched (when the game starts).
