keyboard started glitching within 8 months [Posted on 2008-04-30]
My G15 keyboard started glitching within 8 months of purchase, my Enter, K, and I keys were the 1st to go, then keys started double typing and when I contacted Logitech's customer support they had me hook it up to a 2nd pc without there software. I hauled the keyboard
into work and hook it up (what a pain!)and yup the keyboard is junk.
Logitech's customer support had me fill out a bunch of info but I didn't have my receipt so I'm out my 180$, I went back to my old keyboard, its 10 years old and still works perfectly!
Logitech should be ashamed of them selves for selling substandard products at inflated prices! No matter how many bells and whistles a keyboard has it should last longer then 8 months!
I have an update- I worked with a very nice customer support person at Logitech and even without my receipt they worked with me to get a replacement keyboard! That's the good, the bad is that the new keyboard is the newer G15 and it seams to be a shadow of the original g15 that I had. I liked the flip up screen and disc volume control, the larger keys/keyboard. Everything about this new g15 is just less then the original G15 and I don't think they should be calling it a G15.
Would Not Recommend [Posted on 2008-05-08]
Bought this keyboard for my gaming husband and we discovered that it caused numerous games to freeze and just didn't work as expected. We now have an oversized paper weight on our hands. I would not recommend this to anybody.
Great keyboard period [Posted on 2008-05-29]
I got this keyboard back when it was around 60-70 dollars which was a steal. it was when teh new g15 came out and everyone thought that would be a complete replacement, i took one look at it and decided on getting an original. I have had it for about 6 months now and have had no problems ever. The applets for the led can take some major ram so i recommend shutting some of them off or having at least 2 gigs when using this while playing games. i use this and play games and run xfire and steam and ventrillo and some other stuff and use about 2.5- 3 gigs of ram. but i have 4 gigs so its no problem. One thing i would have liked though was that the usb would be 2.0 instead of the 1.1 that is on there. but not everything is that perfect right.
G15 vs G15 2007 Version [Posted on 2008-05-29]
Well this version is really not worth the price it is now i know people like this one mostly better to the newer one but there is mostly only 2 major diffrinces .
G15 Old
= blue LED
and more G keys
G15 2007
= Orange LED
and Fewer G keys
thats the major reason why ppl are complaining about the newer one.
the Newer one is better. but it would of been BETTER if it had a option to light up in 1-2 or more LED colors instead of one. will see that propbly in the newer logitech gameing keyboard
Fun Factor High [Posted on 2008-06-09]
I really enjoy the Logitech G15: it's not just the look or the easy layout of the keys. It's also the little details--the keys spring back just right under my fingers, the multiple illuminations levels are perfect for the different conditions in which I work, and the software that lets you configure different profiles is very easy to learn. I find myself using the G15 for everything from gaming to writing to coding and not having a problem--I've got big hands and I appreciate the wide spread of the keys.
I also enjoy the LCD: the Performance Monitor is very useful to me, the Clock comes in very handy when my lights are out and I want to keep track of my late-night hours, and although I was sad at how few games support the LCD panel's features, I've been pleased to see more games added to the list with each software update.
I would definitely buy this again. I imagine the newer edition is just as good....but at the high price I had to pay for this one, imagining is all I'll be doing for a while. :)
