Trash keyboard

Bought one of these, started double typing just outside the 2 year warranty.

I also bought this keyboard a few years back and experienced double typing after 2 years. Plus, the RGB lights died on a few keys within a year. Would 100% avoid this keyboard.

That's not necessarily bad, it can help you prevent a hack:

QA on these keyboards is lackluster, be warned.

Spacebar and random keys stopped registering

Given the price I believe it is still worth a try. I own 10+ keyboards and rotate my usage. This keyboard would surely last more than two years.

If there was like a $10 coupon to bring this down to $33 then I would consider it cause I keep hearing about issues after 1-2 years.

Same here.
And the rgb, some of them are not going according to the set up anymore. On all blue light, 1 showing red.
I'll be avoiding loGitech for this.

Appreciate everyone's insight into this keyboard.
In summary, good price for a not so good keyboard.

What are some good quality options for a casual gamer who wants a mechanical keyboard with smooth action that is not too loud. Under $100.

I bought this keyboard when it was 50, but returning it. The quality feels great, because of the raised keyboard, it was giving me pain in the forearm.

Look into HyperX. They had a sale a couple of weeks back.
I have the Alloy Origins for 1.5 years now. Does a good job although the red keys are way too easy to make typing mistakes on because of 0 reflex.

Do you need it or do you want it?

Ive had nothing but good experiences with logitech stuff until I bought their g502 mouse and the g413 keyboard about 5 years back.

G502 middle click stopped working, 2 of them
And the double typing g413

Maybe quality is just shyte nowadays?

I own and currently use this keyboard. It’s great! It gives the nice feel of a sturdy mechanical keyboard without the awful clicking.

The native USB port is nice for my wireless mouse dongle.

Great deal.

You posted it. Don’t listen to the haters. I honestly have no idea what these other people are talking about. It’s worked perfectly for six months of heavy usage.

This keyboard is exactly what you want. I know because I wanted the same thing you do. It’s smooth. Solid. Lights up. Metal build. Non-clicky but still satisfying.
