Logitech - G515 LIGHTSPEED TKL

Switched to mech keyboards a few years ago. Started with the Keychron K3 v2, Nuphy Air 75, Logitech MX Mechanical and currently have the Nuphy Air 96 v2 and the Logitech G515 TKL I’ve realised that I prefer either the TKL format or the full keys layout. The 80/96 don’t work as I always struggle to identify the arrow keys - not a gamer. While I’m smitten by how well made the Nuphy is, somehow I’m not able to overcome the typo syndrome. Every few words I type, adjacent keys get activated. I don’t have this problem on my Logitech though. Planning to get the Kick 75 hybrid with low profile keys as the Logi is now used by a family member. Can anyone who’s been using the Kick confirm how the typing experience has been? That one is such a looker!!!

This explains my pain with the Nuphy Air 75 and 96v2. Have been using the Logitech G515 for almost 3 weeks now, and I'm really impressed with how easy it is to type on. I have the white, so got the tactile brown keys - i like clicky ones, but this us nothing to complain about. Would've loved for this to have the volume roller. Im fact, I did consider the G915 X TKL, but that wasn't available in white and I watched a youtube review that clearly gave the G515 an advantage for productivity use. I'm just curious to try the G915 X and the MX Mech Mini, but may end up getting another G515

Just as an update, used the Nuphy Air 96v2 and Logitech G515 intermittently throughout the day today. I had zero typos and a much smoother typing experience on the Logitech. The Nuphy blue "clicky" keys sound nice, but appears I'll need to use the keyboard for a real long time to get used to the spacing and sensitivity

Yep, that's right. ANSI isn't a problem for me as I began typing with this layout - as long as the keyboard is configured as "International", it will output all the characters I need. I even prefer that over the local (ABNT) layout, though, to be frank, I have no problem using either. Currently, the "small brand" keyboard that is closer to my requirements would be the Keychron K5 Max. Cheapest one available is priced at around $185 USD, exactly like the MX Keys, but, and I believe I've said it before, it lacks see-thru keys and the replacement ABS see-thru is very expensive (not to mention, they're out of stock right now). There's not much elsewhere with comparable specs. On a sidenote, the G515 TKL wireless is going for under $100, brand new (not open box, not refurbished), and that's pretty hard value to beat at this moment, from any brand, as its virtually half the price of anything that is even remotely similar to it and it is even cheaper than its price overseas (something exceedingly rare for us). Once those units end, its price is probably going back up to the +$160 again and never coming down. It's not my ideal keyboard but, at this value, it's probably best to get that and alternate with my MX Keys when I need a full-sized productivity keyboard.

Logitech G515 is good for gaming with wireless and custom keys, but the Keychron K3 Pro is really nice for typing and it's smaller. If you want something that works for both work and gaming, the Keychron might be better low-profile vs. magnetic switches? It's up to you; low-profile can be easier on your hands for long typing. Check out keyboardyeti for some info on low-profile keyboards that could help you choose.

I bought a Logitech g515 tkl wired last week and so far I like it. I bought a refurbished one directly from Logitech and with the new email rebate it came to 82$ + taxes (in Canada). Couldn't find anything else at that price that has the features I wanted.

We've released several new keyboards just in the last few years. In no particular order: Pro X 60 (our first 60% layout) G515 (and then the G515 Rapid) G915 X (a direct upgrade to the G915) Pro X TKL Rapid

The logitech G515 was my first mechanical board and honestly I didn't like it. The caps are too loose and now it's on one of my employee's desks. Nuphy makes great lo-profile boards.= and I'd go with mechanical over magnetic unless you're using it almost exclusively for gaming.

I tried both 515 and 915 logitech and they are terrible, they feel and sound very cheap, returned them immediately. Dont know about asus tho... I ended up getting a Keychron q3 max, check it out.

I'm kind of new to this, and this is about my first and only mechanical keyboard. I have a Logitech G515 that I bought last year... I like it, but I wasn't that impressed with the brightness. I kind of want the keyboard to look a lot brighter and thought pudding keycaps would be the answer, but I can't seem to find low-profile pudding keycaps...

The switches actually look like this... they're low profilecherry switches if I'm not mistaken. I've had some success with some blank keycaps I got from Amazon but they're not very convenient as I have to print the labels for them... and the light doesn't spread very well either. https://preview.redd.it/2emrravl99vf1.jpeg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fbdba7e392671c9903e5812c82e9f6b6be93812b

Logitech G515 Wireless Gaming Keyboard TKL. It’s $149 on Amazon. Im not an expert on keyboards, but I have this and very happy with it.

The 915 is too thin for dampening foam. Your 515 is a great choice as I have one for my tkl. I love low profile boards. I’m good without the media keys. My headset has that feature. The switches are factory lubed on the 915x but probably not enough.

The switches are lubed. My reasoning on the sound dampening is because its chassis is too thin. Can always opt for the 515 which I have too in linear and it’s a nice tkl board.
