Logitech has put out many of the best gaming mice today, but as it continues to grow its accessory line, its competition has only gotten better to catch up. Logitech doesn't feel quite as dominant as it once was in the market. The G915 X Lightspeed is both a defiance of that, learning from Amazon reviews with this latest keyboard, and also seemingly an admittance of it.
A new and improved version of the G915 keyboard that launched back in 2019, my specific review model is full-sized, and comes with clicky switches. This low-profile keyboard is available in a TKL model, keeping much of the same design language but removing the aforementioned ten keycaps, as well as the Logitech G-keys.
If you're familiar with the previous G915, this keyboard will feel very similar. They both have an aluminium frame and fairly understated black keys.

Your battery life expectations should be set somewhere between the 100 hours you get out of 50% brightness and 42 hours out of 100% brightness. These figures are genuinely solid, though much less than the 800-hour figure. The keyboard also automatically turns
