Raw Performance

The Logitech G915 LIGHTSPEED is a low-profile, full-sized gaming keyboard with low-profile switches and keycaps. It also features dedicated macro keys and full RGB backlighting. Unfortunately, only the dedicated macro keys are programmable, so you can't remap other keys. It feels comfortable to type on even without a wrist rest, and it comes in three switch variants: GL Tactile, GL Clicky, and GL Linear. We purchased our keyboard with tactile switches, which are light to press and provide okay typing quality. Logitech also offers a G915 TKL version of this model, and while we haven't tested it, we expect it to perform similarly.

Our Verdict

8.5 Gaming

The Logitech G915 is an exceptional keyboard for gaming. The low profile switches are incredibly responsive and provide nice tactile feedback, and the keyboard has extremely low latency. The dedicated media controls allow you to adjust your audio without minimizing games, and the dedicated macro keys are a great addition. Also, if you like gaming in a dark room, the full RGB backlighting is a plus.

Pros
  • Exceptionally low latency.
  • Low profile switches feel very responsive.
  • Fully customizable RGB backlighting.
  • Dedicated macro keys.
Cons
  • No included wrist rest.
7.3 Office

The Logitech G915 is a decent keyboard for office use. The low profile nature of the keyboard makes it comfortable to type on, even without a wrist rest, and the GL Tactile switches on our unit are light to press and unlikely to cause any fatigue, even over long periods. However, the short pre-travel of these switches can cause more unintended keystrokes, resulting in more typos.

Pros
  • Great build quality.
  • Typing noise is minimal.
  • Shouldn't cause fatigue, even after long periods of use.
Cons
  • No included wrist rest.
  • Typing quality is only decent.
  • short pre-travel may lead to more typos.
5.9 Mobile/Tablet

The Logitech G915 is disappointing for use with mobile devices. While you can connect this keyboard via Bluetooth, and nearly all of its keys function with most operating systems, the keyboard isn't very portable, as it's rather large and heavy. Additionally, it doesn't support multi-device pairing.

Pros
  • Connects wirelessly with its USB receiver or via Bluetooth.
  • Rechargeable battery advertised to last 30 hours.
  • Feels sturdy and well-built.
Cons
  • Some keys don't work on iOS and iPadOS.
  • Software isn't available on Android.
  • Fairly large and heavy.
7.3 Programming

The Logitech G915 is good for programming. The dedicated macro keys are easily programmable, and you can store up to 15 macros on the onboard memory, which is great for those working on multiple computers. However, keep in mind that you can't assign macros to any key. The typing experience is okay, but you may make more typos than usual, as the keys have very short pre-travel.

Pros
  • Great build quality.
  • Fully customizable RGB backlighting.
  • Dedicated macro keys.
Cons
  • No included wrist rest.
  • Typing quality is only decent.
6.8 Entertainment / HTPC

The Logitech G915 is decent for HTPC use. You can connect it easily to your TV via Bluetooth, and its full RGB, individually-lit keys are easy to see in the dark. It also has dedicated media keys, making it easy to pause, play, and adjust the volume of your content, but without a trackpad, you'll need a mouse to navigate the user interface.

Pros
  • Fully customizable RGB backlighting.
  • Connects wirelessly with its USB receiver or via Bluetooth.
Cons
  • No dedicated trackpad.
  • Poor color mixing.

Differences Between Sizes And Variants

The Logitech G915 LIGHTSPEED wireless mechanical keyboard is available with three different types of switches. We tested the variant with GL Tactile switches, but you can also get it with GL Clicky or GL Linear switches. Also, there's a TenKeyLess version of this keyboard without a Numpad, the G915 TKL. While it's available in black with the same choice of switches as the full-sized version, there's also a white colorway unique to the G915 TKL that's only available with GL Tactile switches. We haven't tested the G915 TKL, but we expect it to perform very similarly to this keyboard.

Compared To Other Keyboards

The Logitech G915 is an outstanding, low-profile gaming keyboard and is among the best gaming keyboards we’ve tested. It also comes with an excellent set of extra features. Unfortunately, you can only reprogram its dedicated macro keys. Also, the low-profile keycaps are made of ABS plastic, which some may find disappointing, especially given the premium price point of this keyboard. While its proprietary low-profile switches are incredibly responsive-feeling, they may not be for everyone as they bottom out more quickly than traditional switches.

For more options, check out our recommendations for the best gaming keyboards, the best wireless keyboards, and the best Logitech keyboards.

Logitech G815 LIGHTSYNC RGB

The Logitech G815 LIGHTSYNC RGB and the Logitech G915 LIGHTSPEED are near-identical keyboards, but the G815 is wired-only, while the G915 is wireless. They're available with the same switches and offer the same outstanding gaming performance. You can use the G915 with its USB dongle or over Bluetooth, and it has a multi-device pairing feature, which means you can use it with mobile devices, and you can pair to multiple devices simultaneously. On the other hand, the G815 has a USB passthrough, which the G915 lacks.

Logitech G915 X

The Logitech G915 X and the Logitech G915 LIGHTSPEED are low-profile mechanical gaming keyboards in the same product lineup. Both keyboards offer similar raw gaming performance, but the G915 X is a newer model with wired-only connectivity. It has slightly better build quality with a thicker aluminum top plate and higher-quality PBT keycaps. Comparatively, the G915 LIGHTSPEED is an older model with wireless connectivity and cheaper ABS keycaps, which are more prone to developing a shiny, slippery finish with extended use.

Logitech G515 LIGHTSPEED TKL

The Logitech G915 LIGHTSPEED and the Logitech G515 LIGHTSPEED TKL are wireless gaming keyboards with low-profile designs. The G915 is an older, full-size model with dedicated media keys and a volume scroll bar. It also has a row of five dedicated macro keys, but you can't program macros to any other keys. On the other hand, the newer G515 TKL has a more compact 80% form factor. It also has several small improvements, including higher-quality PBT keycaps, pre-lubed switches and stabilizers, and acoustic case materials that make it quieter. Lastly, while it doesn't have dedicated macro keys, you can program macros to any key using the configuration software.

Corsair K100 AIR

The Corsair K100 AIR and the Logitech G915 LIGHTSPEED are low-profile mechanical gaming keyboards. The Corsair is a bit thinner and offers slightly better gaming performance with marginally lower latency and a higher maximum polling rate of 8000Hz.

The Corsair K100 RGB and the Logitech G915 LIGHTSPEED are both fantastic gaming keyboards with different features. The Corsair is a wired keyboard with a USB passthrough, and the Logitech is a wireless option with multi-device pairing. They each have dedicated macro keys, but you can reprogram every key on the Corsair, which you can't do with the Logitech. The Corsair is available with two types of linear switches, while the Logitech is available with either tactile, clicky, or linear low profile switches.

Logitech MX Keys

The Logitech G915 LIGHTSPEED is better overall than the Logitech MX Keys, but their differences come down to their uses. The G915 is a wireless gaming keyboard with mechanical switches, full RGB backlighting, and dedicated macro-programmable keys. Also, it has much lower latency to provide a more responsive gaming experience. The MX Keys is designed for office use with very quiet scissor switches, a great typing quality, and Bluetooth pairing with up to three devices at once.

Razer BlackWidow V3 Pro

The Razer BlackWidow V3 Pro and the Logitech G915 LIGHTSPEED are two fantastic wireless gaming keyboards. Even though the Logitech's low-profile switches have a shorter total travel distance and lighter operating force, the Razer provides a much better typing experience. The Razer also has better build quality, and all its keys are macro-programmable, while the Logitech only lets you reprogram the dedicated macro keys.

Razer Pro Type Ultra

The Razer Pro Type Ultra and the Logitech G915 LIGHTSPEED are wireless boards designed for different uses. The Razer is an office keyboard with a wrist rest and white-only backlighting. You can pair it with more devices via Bluetooth, and it comes with a unifying receiver that you can connect to a compatible mouse. It's available with Razer Yellow switches only, which are linear and standard-sized. On the other hand, the Logitech is a gaming board with RGB backlighting, dedicated macro keys, a game mode key, and dedicated media controls. While the Logitech is available in more switches, it's only available with low-profile switches, which some people may not like.

Logitech G613 LIGHTSPEED

The Logitech G915 LIGHTSPEED is a better wireless gaming keyboard than the Logitech G613 LIGHTSPEED. It feels better built, and it features RGB backlighting, which is great if you play games in the dark. While the G915 has an extra incline setting, the G613 comes with a non-detachable wrist rest, which the G915 lacks. The G915 is available GL Tactile, GL Clicky, and GL Linear switches, all low-profile switches. On the other hand, the G613 is only available with Logitech Romer-G tactile switches.

Keychron K1

The Logitech, on the other hand, is a much larger full-size model. It has a set of physical button media controls and a scroll bar, as well as five dedicated macro buttons, which the Falchion lacks.

Razer BlackWidow V3 Mini HyperSpeed

The Logitech G915 LIGHTSPEED and the Razer BlackWidow V3 Mini HyperSpeed are both wireless gaming boards. The Logitech is a full-size board with dedicated macro keys, dedicated media keys, and a volume control wheel. It's available with GL Tactile, GL Clicky, and GL Linear switches, all low-profile switches. If you prefer standard switches, the Razer comes with clicky Razer Green and linear Razer Yellow switches. While the Razer's 60% compact size means it doesn't have dedicated macro keys or media keys like the Logitech, all its keys can have macros set to them. Both boards have incredibly low latency.

ASUS ROG Claymore II

The ASUS ROG Claymore II and the Logitech G915 LIGHTSPEED are both wireless gaming keyboards. The Logitech has Bluetooth and can pair with two devices at once, while you can only use the ASUS wirelessly with its USB receiver.

The ASUS is available with linear and clicky ROG RX Optical Mechanical switches.

Keychron K3 (Version 2)

The Logitech G915 LIGHTSPEED and the Keychron K3 (Version 2) are both wireless, mechanical keyboards with some key differences. The Logitech is a full-size keyboard designed for gaming use. That said, it has significantly better latency, dedicated macro keys, and companion software to allow you to customize your settings. On the other hand, the Keychron is a compact, 75% board better suited for office use. It has low-profile switches and keycaps, and it also comes in hot-swappable variants.

Razer Huntsman V2 Analog

The Razer Huntsman V2 Analog and the Logitech G915 LIGHTSPEED are very different keyboards. The Razer is a wired-only keyboard that features Analog Optical switches, while the Logitech is a low-profile, wireless keyboard that's available with tactile, clicky, or linear switches. The Razer lets you customize the pre-travel distance, perform two actions in one keypress, or use the keyboard like an analog joystick. On the flip side, the Logitech has an extra column of dedicated macro keys and a multi-device pairing feature. The Logitech has better compatibility because it can be used with mobile devices and has software support for macOS.

Razer Pro Type

The Razer Pro Type and the Logitech G915 LIGHTSPEED are for different uses. The Razer is a full-sized productivity keyboard, while the Logitech is a low-profile keyboard intended for gaming. The Razer has white-only backlighting and is only available with tactile Razer Orange switches. You can rebind or program macros to any key on the Razer. On the other hand, the Logitech has full RGB backlighting and is available in either GL Tactile, GL Clicky, or GL Linear switches, all of which are low-profile switches. Unfortunately, you can only rebind or set macros to the dedicated macro buttons on the Logitech.

Logitech Craft

The Logitech G915 LIGHTSPEED and the Logitech Craft are both low-profile wireless keyboards, but they're designed for different purposes. The G915 is a low-profile mechanical gaming keyboard with lower latency, full RGB backlighting, and dedicated macro keys. It's also available in either tactile, clicky, or linear switches. On the other hand, the Craft is a non-mechanical, low-profile keyboard intended for office and productivity use.

Design
Build Quality
Keycap Material ABS

The build quality is great. It has a metal frame and hard plastic backing. It exhibits some flex due to the thinness of the board, but it's fairly minimal. Although the keycaps are doubleshot, which is great for the durability of the key legends, they're made of ABS plastic, which can pick up oils from fingers easily and tends to develop a shine over time. The keys also wobble slightly, but it isn't too noticeable during regular use.

Note: Our unit's frame has a slight upward arch. However, we're not sure if this is a manufacturing defect or if it was damaged during shipping, so your experience may vary. The score has been adjusted accordingly.

The Logitech G915's typing experience is only okay. The low-profile keycaps are ABS plastic, which can develop shine from the oils on fingers. Also, some users will find the keys bottom out quickly, which may feel odd for those who aren't used to it. We tested the GL Tactile switches, which provide a nice tactile bump to indicate when you've registered a keystroke. The overall typing experience is light, responsive, and doesn't cause fatigue when typing for a long time. However, the short pre-travel can also cause you to register more unintentional keystrokes, leading to more typos than usual. If you like the low-profile switch and keycap design but prefer a better overall typing quality, check out the ROCCAT Vulcan 120 AIMO.

The Logitech G915 has outstanding companion software. It allows you to customize the RGB backlighting on a per-key basis and reprogram the dedicated macro keys, but keep in mind that you can't rebind any other key on this keyboard. The onboard memory can only save up to three profiles, but the G HUB software lets you save as many as you want. There's also cloud sync storage available, though it requires a Logitech account. Note that the software only recognizes the keyboard while using the receiver or the cable, and it won't if you're using a Bluetooth connection.

Note: We didn't experience any issues using the software during our testing. However, many users online have reported various problems trying to use the Logitech G HUB software, including but not limited to startup issues, freezing, and failures to recognize certain devices. If you'd like to share your experience using Logitech G HUB with this keyboard, feel free to leave us a comment in the discussions section.
