Logitech G512 CARBON LIGHTSYNC RGB Tactile Mechanical Gaming Keyboard

This is a decent keyboard for the price. But make sure you go to the Logitech website and check out the sounds that each colour switch makes (red / blue / brown) and buy accordingly. It is a bit heavy but other than that, pretty happy with the keyboard. This is a decent keyboard for the price.

I have owned this keyboard for 4 months and the black on multiple keys has already started to wear. This means you can see the light shining through the edges and makes me worry about how bad it will be after years of use... Will all of the black be gone by that point?

I owned another Logitech Mechanical keyboard at the same price point for 3 years before replacing it. I replaced it due to the blue light not working in the colour spectrum and was hoping this keyboard would be different. Now I have just come across another issue.

Wondering if I have to change brands after this one. I have owned this keyboard for 4 months and the black on multiple keys has already started to wear.

Really pleased with this keyboard. Not too loud, but excellent tactile feedback. Feels really solid with the aluminium chassis. Logitech GHUB lets me configure the lighting to suit my mood.

I thought the Brown switch was going to feel more clicky but I'm not complaining. Awesome keyboard. I thought the Brown switch was going to feel more clicky but I'm not complaining. Awesome keyboard.

I’ve been raised on the cheapest keyboards money can buy. I’ve use this on and off for over a month now, and this feels very nice. Plus the cable feels very sturdy!

Fantastic tactile mechanical feel. Not much more you can really ask for. Huge game-changing experience from a $20 keyboard aha! Fantastic tactile mechanical feel. Not much more you can really ask for. Huge game-changing experience from a $20 keyboard aha!

honestly this keyboard was amazing for an impulse buy as i broke my previous keyboard from spilling a drink all over it. the switches are great and are relatively quiet which is great when you live in university accommodation. however I am disappointed in the lack of height that the stands offer, if they had made it so the keyboard could sit higher it would definitely bump this review up to five stars honestly this keyboard was amazing for an impulse buy as i broke my previous keyboard from spilling a drink all over it. the switches are great and are relatively quiet which is great when you live in university accommodation. however I am disappointed in the lack of height that the stands offer, if they had made it so the keyboard could sit higher it would definitely bump this review up to five stars

Really solid frame, the gx brown keys are really satisfying compared to the normal mx browns I was use to. Great functionality and customisable features. Recommend to anyone looking for a mix between gaming and uni/work keyboard. Overall very smooth experience, especially if you already have Logitech accessories.

For three years, I've been gaming with a cheap mem-chanical keyboard and I always thought it was the perfect one. But when I decided to get a new keyboard for Christmas, everything has changed! The keyboard is quick and easy to setup and I love how it has a usb port in the front and it made me no longer struggle trying to fix the cord for my mic! Over all I would definently recomend this to any person who's into gaming or to any one who wants a good keyboard For three years, I've been gaming with a cheap mem-chanical keyboard and I always thought it was the perfect one.

I've compared all the different Cherry switch types and I liked browns the best, so I gave Logitech version a go. The switches are great, slightly more tactile with more pressure needed for key press, but I think they feel better then Cherry switches directly comparing them to another keyboard with Cherry browns. Saves desk space and looks nice too. I've compared all the different Cherry switch types and I liked browns the best, so I gave Logitech version a go.

My son likes the customisability that comes with the Logitech G hub app.
Works great with other Logitech devices. Easy integration with a g-shift button on a logitech mouse.
My favourite thing about it is the way it can light up in sync with music.
The only thing I wish the keyboard had is a num lock status light. My son likes the customisability that comes with the Logitech G hub app.

Nice, solid keyboard. Its quite hefty - it takes a lot to move it on the desk. I like the usb connector on the top right, pity there is only one of them though. I guess an integrated USB hub would have driven the price up though.

Keywise, a bit heaver to type on than I expected compared to other keyboards with browns I've used before, but it doesnt take long to get used to.

Just a single minor complaint is that the keys dont fully light up - think the secondary symbols on the number keys, etc. If you're sitting in complete darkness these secondaries are not visible unlike a previous coolmaster keyboard I've been using.
