Our Verdict

Logitech G PRO Keyboard

Logitech G515 RAPID TKL

The Logitech G515 RAPID TKL and the Logitech G PRO Keyboard differ in several key ways. While their gaming performance is comparable, the G515 includes a number of features that set it apart. It's a low-profile keyboard that uses magnetic switches, offering customizable actuation and Rapid Trigger functions that can be useful in games requiring precise movement. The G PRO, on the other hand, features standard-profile mechanical switches, which are much heavier. This may feel more natural if you prefer a longer key travel distance. The clicky switches used are also significantly louder and feature a pronounced tactile bump, which differs substantially from the G515 RAPID TKL.
