Default Re: Post your latest Purchase


Just purchased Logitech G110 keyboard @ 3.6k+tax

Blue Backlight


Pink Backlight


Red Backlight


Media controls, love the volume scroll button, blows everything away, allows as low as 1% increment in winamp.


The G Keys.


The gaming key that disables the start button, love it.


Central console, left buttons control the headphone(integrated usb soundcard), right button turns off the backlight.


USB port(low powered devices) and 3.5mm jacks for headphone(inbuilt soundcard)


In the dark.


This keyboard is too good for the price, I also looked at the razer blackwidow @ 4.4k(no backlight), Microsoft Sidewinder X6(ctrl+r blocks all keys, ala ghosting) @ 4.4k, Roccat Arvo(no arrow keys, they are integrated in numpad, weird looks and aesthetics) @ 3.8k and discarded them all due to the reasons mentioned.

Pros:
1. Build quality.
2. Software looks sexy, installs in a zippy and is very easy to configure.
3. Customizable backlight(Red-blue spectrum)
4. Key font looks good.
5. Hoard of g-keys(macro)
6. Inbuilt usb audio processor.
7. Volume slider.
8. No ghosting with dozens of much used key combos.
9. Macro recording on the fly with delay insertion.

Cons:
1. Backlight is of low intensity(red makes up for it, blue is too low)
2. Key etching quality is average, backlighting is not uniform across keys, some keys emit backlight partially.
3. No green led means the rgb spectrum is not available.
4. No calculator media key(not really a con, you can use one of the g keys).

Update: Changed image hosting domain to imgur.com, everyone BOYCOTT Imageshack.

The logitech keyboard software(for my G110):

Interface


The Backlight Spectrum(sadly green is absent)


Macro recording, games are automatically detected.



I usually don't show software images but this was too good to pass up.

Awesome review!
9/10
Simple and to the point.


BTW is the inbuilt sound card a specialty in the g110 or is it also available in other keyboards?

Well, since my cousin broke my HD201 , I don't have any descent headphones to check this out thoroughly so I plugged in my Sony MDR EX35LP and then my Altec Lansing VS4621 and I was very impressed, quality is on par with my onboard audio(which is a realtek alc1200 and no slouch), maybe even a bit better, what impressed me is that the keyboard supports automatic jack detection and as soon as I plugged in the headphones it was detected in a snap and windows automatically switched to them, mic and headphones can be muted separately with dedicated keys and the keyboard can power my G500 mouse and the headphones together without any issue, I've almost never been so much impressed by a product before(last was EVGA 9800GTX+).

PS: one thing I forgot to add to the review is that the software has inbuilt profile for games with predefined commands. See this screenshot:

I can just assign the macros, also macros can be recorded on the fly like a tape recorder.

No, just the USB only, audio soundcard is built in and uses the same USB pathway as the keyboard does, nifty right? In fact atm I am using this only, very nice.
