Had this keyboard for a month and am highly enjoying it for both gaming and typing.
Pro's: Light key switches and silent when actuated but still has enough resistance that you can easily avoid a keystroke. Solid build quality with no flex in the board itself and very good illumination of the keys with very little light bleeding.
Con's: Personally the USB pass through on the back is of no use and the keys have a slight wobble from side to side preventing keystrokes from being truely silent but not to the extent where its a glaring issue.
Overall a great keyboard with relatively little to criticise from my experience so far.Had this keyboard for a month and am highly enjoying it for both gaming and typing.

I recommend this product but just not the tactile one. Consider Linear or GX blue.
25 June 2019
I've been using this keyboard for a week, but keep reading. Overall the Keyboard is quite nice looking and nice to type, however after a few times use I noticed that the keys with long horizontal key caps such as the enter, shift and space bar significantly sounds much more high pitched than the other keys which sometimes disturbs me. The space bar sounds much more high pitched than the linear just telling, so like a little more of a hollow sound, but all goods for me. Also if you press the keys with force you can hear the springs or the vibrating sounds of the metal plate, I don't know which but I can hear the metal sounds. so yeah just...

Also if you press the keys with force you can hear the springs or the vibrating sounds of the metal plate, I don't know which but I can hear the metal sounds. so yeah just keep in mind. The Metal plate is scratch free ( unless you really put in a lot of force ). The first time I used the keyboard, I found that the extra USB socket in the keyboard socket is too tight and requires a lot of shifting and pushing around to insert your device ( I tried with a lot of things such as mouse, USB, etc) Sweat marks are very minim and can only be seen very up close, so its not a very big problem. The main reason I gave this review a 4 star is because you can't really feel the tactile bump , it feels like a linear, I would like a bit more of a tactile bump. So maybe a buying a linear might be a bit better as it also feels much smoother compared to the tactile. For people transferring/changing from a laptop keyboard, it might take a few days to get use to, like me. No dedicated media keys are not really of a big problem because you have the fn keys that can substitute it. Lighting is great and no key wobble, quite stable keys. For people who like quite keyboards I feel like the linear is the better option and considering the tactile doesn't really provide a tactile bump like the GX blue. Bear in mind that the GX blue lighting locates at the top side so therefore the bottom symbols are not lit. Hope you like this review!!! Comin from a 15 year old asian boy. So reviews may not be what you want to know. Good luck!
Thank You

Awesome keyboard!
29 November 2019
TL:DR 10/10 would buy again.
I've had this keyboard for 2 weeks now, and I love it! Its very easy to keep clean with its flush bed, and the keys are crisp and responsive. The minimalist design is nice, and doesn't have ridiculous flashy stuff. They RGB lighting is bright and very pretty. One thing with the RGB though, is you can't have pure white (Its just a light blue). The software for the Logitech gaming family of products isn't the greatest, the UI is quite annoying and oversimplified.
Pro's:
Very nice looking.
Excellent keys.
Very sturdy and solid feeling.
Con's:
Software isn't the best.
Cable is quite thick.
No white RGB... View MoreTL:DR 10/10 would buy again.

Just got this keyboard today, already impressed with the solid feel and great keystrokes and responsiveness and easily started typing at full speed. Lighting is also amazing and looks great. This keyboard is definitely good value for money, good for typing, gaming and all tasks in between. Also looked at other keyboards but given the price the G512 was definitely the right choice.Just got this keyboard today, already impressed with the solid feel and great keystrokes and responsiveness and easily started typing at full speed.

Good solid keyboard

Once I got the LED's to stay at one colour (download the app) It looks great. I really like the feel of the keyboard and it has a hefty clicking sound.Once I got the LED's to stay at one colour (download the app) It looks great.

Great key board, solid as a rock, and positive key strokes. Just need to work out how to stop the flasking key lights.Great key board, solid as a rock, and positive key strokes. Just need to work out how to stop the flasking key lights.

Really enjoying this keyboard. I was coming from "cherry red" switches, and I prefer these romer tactile switches by far. They have a great feel to them, and are slightly quieter in my opinion.
Keyboard is solid and well built. The rgb/programming software is very easy to use. The braided cord and additional USB port are really nice too.Really enjoying this keyboard.
