Cons:
wired
Pros: many different backlite optionkey stroke feeling is great not too hard not too softusb connection on the back of the keyboardmaterial used (thick plastic, some keys are in metal) Comment:
love that keyboard, i do not write product review often but when i do it is because i mean it. I've been testing this keyboard for the last 2 months and i can say Logitech can go back to their drawing board. This keyboard is amazing, the only problem is that the keyboard is wired, but then again i guess with all the lights on it a batterie might not last long enough. I would recommend this keyboard to anyone who does not need the wireless feature. |

Cons: A little big
Pros: lots of colors, fully customizable, touch screen, heavy duty, metal-capped keys, macro keys, Very durable Comment:
Like many others, I bought this because i was tired of logit3ch, although i had a good customer support, 2 of their g15 died on me, along with a mx 518, I had this keyboard for more than one year and no keys have fallen on me yet, and the touch screen is still going strong, those complaining about durability are surely not being careful with their gear. I love this keyboard, typing is a breeze, keys are very soft and the keyboard is really silent compared to some others from other known brands I've tried, would really recommend this to people wanting to show-off in lan parties too ;) |

Cons: size, led touch pad
Pros: bright, color change. metal wasd and space bar Comment:
Bought this because my old G15 v1 died on me and I just didn't like the look of the new one at all. This is a great keyboard on how you can change the colors and the touch pad was a fantastic idea but still needs work, As for me the volume led don't change but they work as in changing the volume. |

Cons: No Blue (Whyy?!!)Macro Keys on Right SideBig Ass Box (doesn't fit in an NCIX bag)
Pros: Metal KeysLighting EffectsTouch PanelMacro KeysUSB 2.0Headphone and Microphone Jacks Comment:
To start off, this keyboard looks nice with the colours. It remembers your "Cyborg" profile that you create. Simply by touching the little keyboard on the touch panel, you can change the colour and the brightness. It looks great when there's mixed colours. I love the WASD keys being a different colour. The touch panel is very nice and responsive. It's also always visible unless you turn off all the lights.The main reason I got this keyboard is because of the USB 2.0, headphone and microphone jack. My computer is above my head and it's a hassle to plug in a USB drive. I would have gotten the G15 if it weren't for the USB 1.1s. The software is fair, but not the best I've seen. Installation is very easy though.Some people say the metal spacebar feels bad. I prefer the metal space bar for some reason. I think it feels good. However, I don't like the macro keys that much. They feel a bit cheap and the ones on the right are pointless to me. My hand is never close to them, so I never use them.Overall, It's a great keyboard that looks nice. My computer's theme is blue and green, so I'm a bit dissapointed with the fact that this keyboard doesn't have blue as a colour option. Either way, it looks nice and works well. Definitely recommend it for people who want USB 2.0, headphone and microphone jacks on their keyboard. |

Cons: Media controls do not work when playing some games with WinAmp (but DO WORK with Windows Media Player)Uneven lighting (Saitek doesn't hide this...even their stock photos illustrate this)Horizontal control panel can eventually pickup fingerprints/smudges, but that is to be expectedNo blue, which is kinda silly since most users have that theme
Pros: Excellent construction qualityWicked awesome brightnessVolume control lights-up, indicating system volume levelBuilt-in USB 2.0/Audio Out/MIC ports (with individual connectors) Comment:
After long last I finally have this beast in my possession. Upgraded from the Saitek Eclipse 1 and I must say, its not as large as I expected. It does take some getting used to, as the sides of the 'board now come equipped with macro keys. The command buttons on the control panel work VERY well, with no lag or stalling.The board has the following colors: Green, Lime, Amber, Orange, and Red...NO BLUE! Each color has 4 brightness modes (plus OFF) and best of all, the keyboard remembers your color scheme, even when unplugged and moved!! Commonly-used command buttons, such as Media (Pause/Play/Next/Prev) and Keyboard Brightness controls are dimly lit, so even in pitch dark you can see these buttons. Keys are "deep" so if you're moving from a thin (laptop-style) keyboard, this may be a little cumbersome...we're dealing with fairly heavy typing-push here. Keys are of very high quality, and those metal-reinforced keys seen in some pictures are actually silver in color, not gold.Overall, an incredible addition to any system. Saitek has done it again!

Awesome keyboard I love it. The 12 extra gaming keys fr macros and duh are perfectly place on the edge of Borge sides of the keyboard so touring accidentally press one while gaming. The customization with the backlight is amazing enough to buy thi keyboard. The backlights are so bright that you can see them in bright conditions. But in the dark this keyboard looks so sick it'll turn heads.
