Microsoft's Surface keyboard and Apple's Magic keyboard are obvious references, but the RGB lighting and additional buttons for macros and media give a subtle assurance that the G915 can cut it in PUBG and Google Docs alike. We're also big fans of the look, which seems to draw on as many inspirations outside the gaming market as within it. When it comes to layout, everything is where you'd expect to find it, and ergonomically it's spot-on. The keys aren't set so low that they resemble an Apple keyboard and require the same amount of force, but with that shorter travel distance they're notably zippier in their behaviour than other mechanical boards. Compare that to Razer's proprietary switches, which range between 45-50g of force and 3.5mm-4mm of travel, and you get an idea of what exactly 'low profile' means in this context.
Logitech's GL switches have an actuation distance of 1.5mm, a total travel distance of 2.7mm, and an actuation force of 50g to register a key press. What's good for one person's fingers might not be good for another's, but it's a bit more black and white when we get into build quality and functionality, so let's start there. It's worth noting upfront that so much of a keyboard's tactile experience is subjective - after all, that's the reason for different switch choices and the very existence of a low profile board like this one as an alternative option to those with deeper keys and longer travel distance.
