Logitech - G515 LIGHTSPEED TKL

My opinion may be unpopular but I love the G515 tactile keyboard. I'm an attorney so I type a ton. I also game. I have the G915 and Razer Deathstalker v2 Pro. I returned the Razer because it was too mushy, actuation was way too shallow, and battery life was terrible. The G515 tactile actuation is perfect for me and highly satisfying. I love it. Loss of the volume rocker does suck but I can live without it. Typing is the most important characteristic of a keyboard anyways and this does it really well. If the G915 is ever discontinued, I know I'm fine with the G515.

I just bought it to play around with it. And I'm semi-happy with it, I like the low profile keycaps and how smooth I can type with it. BUT the thing I hate about its rough, abrasive texture, which feels unpleasantly coarse to the touch. It contrasts with the MX Mechanical (mini) keycap, which has a perfectly smooth, polished surface but the keyboard isn't really made for gaming. I would like to somehow find keycaps from an MX mechanical keyboard but in black and compatible with the G515 https://preview.redd.it/yyowytmay0od1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b5c46adf1563221cf41510c8525199f4e657ac08

I got the g515 and I like it except for some reason the left control acts as if it's pressed occasionally. Very annoying when playing cs, I will crouch with it but when I release, i will stay crouched until I press it again, like a toggle. Only happens a couple times a match... and I've yet found a way to replicate the issue. Also haven't seen anyone else with this issue so maybe I just got unlucky. All my other keyboards don't have this issue. Other than that I like the keyboard a lot.

I just bought the G515 tactile with brown switches, and I couldn't be happier. It is super quiet and responsive, has no delay whatsoever, and the battery lasts for about 2 weeks of everyday usage for at least 6 hours a day.

no sound dampening / lubed switches on this board? got the g515 and love it, was excited to try the new g915x because I loved the og but hated how the keycaps got so dirty so quickly and you couldn't change them due to the proprietary stems. was also excited for sound dampening and lubed switches for that thoccy feel and sound. seems I'll be sticking with my g515, only complaint with this board is no multi media keys but I've since added them to my stream deck and I've gotten used to it.

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.

Disappointed they didn't add the foam and the lubed switches that are available on the cheaper G515 on this board. The G515 sounds a lot thockier and smoother than the G915 X it seems

I just received the linear version of this keyboard today and straight out of the box I was dissapointed. I thought it would be a step up from the G915, which I have been using for over 2 years until recently - this was not the case. Sure. It's nice that it comes with PBT keycaps instead of ABS, but It still feels wobbly and It's not a smooth experience to type on this keyboard (despite being linear). I'm currently using the ASUS ROG Falchion RX Low Profile Optical keyboard, which feels so much more premium when I compare them to each other. I honestly thought Logitech had listened to the feedback and reviews of their Pro X 60 .. But it just seems like they are going to continue down that road 🫤 Oh well, I just wanted to share my experience with the rest of you that might be looking into a low profile keyboard like this.

It's slightly better compared to the G915, but not by much. I can't really recommend this keyboard to anyone, seeing as there so many other (better) alternatives out there.

I came from G815 to G515 and its really, really quiet compared to that. Both tactile.

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.

The 515 is a great board for the price. The only two biggest differences is one the 515 is an all plastic build but sturdy and missing the volume wheel which you don’t need. Your headsets can control the volume. The wheel in the 915 is not multi functional. The 915 is a heavier board.

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.

Not sure what you’re complaining about and that you’re here to just complain. Actually they did listen to the feedback. Only thing disappointing is no dedicated media keys. What did you expect for $140? It still has a plethora of features,usbc,double shot pbt,sound depending foam and pre lubed switches. For $140 when everything else is 200 plus for wireless it’s a steal.

I got the g515 tkl and it's good imo

I’ve heard mixed things about it, but I’m using it right now, and it’s great! Switches feel good, RGB is customizable, I like how it uses a USB receiver instead of Bluetooth or a wire. Just get the Logitech G-Hub software and you’re good to go.

Living in the Nordics is definitely a struggle! My old Corsair keyboard is dying (and has been for a while) but I can’t decide on a replacement. Was hoping the G515 was the one, and it might still be. I’d love to go for the ASUS, but I can’t do anything below TKL (preferences, I suppose - I’ve tried for 6 months but can’t get used to it). Then we’re down to Deathstalker v2 pro and G515…

Honestly, I prefer typing on G515 over the Falchion, really nice lubed and not too noisy. Definitely prefer it over the G915 in terms of typing quality, much closer to my custom keyboards.
