The G15 jumping for joy.


Conclusion:

With its second release of the G15 keyboard, Logitech has really demonstrated a willingness to consider consumer input and act on the suggestions that they receive. Virtually every aspect of the G15 v.2 has improved from the previous release. A more compact, efficient form factor coupled with some intelligent design changes really adds a shot of life to an already cool peripheral. Although some of the "G" keys have been eliminated, the corresponding size difference more than makes up for the loss. Frankly, I never needed all 18 keys on the previous iteration of the G15 anyway. If you are in the market for a new gaming keyboard, and are willing to spend the $99.00 necessary to buy the unit, the new G15 is a great option.



Highs
Responsive keys; Cool appearance, Streamlined form factor; On-the-fly macro recording; Cool amber backlighting; Integrated USB ports; Gaming mode, LCD readout

Lows
Expensive; LCD still lacks developer support; Slightly smaller LCD than '05 model; Fewer ā€œGā€ keys could bother some gamers

Final verdict
The legendary G15 gets a much needed and much appreciated pgrade.
