I have keyboards with both types (K90 & a Rosewill) and to me they feel almost identical. Impulses - Tuesday, Octolink You're making way too big a deal out of the difference between browns and reds.First, the keyboard is entirely backlit with individual white LEDs under each key, and the LEDs can have their brightness adjusted in two separate zones (WASD/arrow clusters and the rest of the keyboard) using the toggle buttons at the top of the keyboard.

It's an interesting choice, made more interesting by two wrinkles. Logitech's rep was amusingly unforthcoming about which switches the G710+ employs, but that was easy enough to discern with two seconds and a keycap remover: Cherry MX Brown. If you kept up with the K90 review, it won't take you long to see where.įirst and foremost, every key on the G710+ is mechanical except for the half-height controls/toggles at the very top of the keyboard. More than that, they seem to have heard many of the criticisms levelled at other keyboard manufacturers, particularly Corsair. The G710+ feels like it has a lot more thought and pragmatism put into its design than their earlier, in some ways flashier designs. With the G710+, Logitech has essentially learned from their previous efforts and produced something that's arguably very distinctive and well thought out. Logitech's older G10, G11, and G15 keyboards were a bit more fraught there were hotkeys on both sides of the keyboard, and they were very easy to accidentally hit. I've used Logitech gaming keyboards with varying degrees of success one of the primary reasons I liked Corsair's K90 keyboard so much was the way it abstracted the gaming hotkeys away from the keyboard itself by lowering their height, allowing me to touch type the keyboard conventionally while being able to feel for the configurable keys if I needed them.
