First things first, the G710+ is HEAVY. It weighs a good 6 pounds, much much heavier than your regular keyboard. The finish and feel of the keyboard is very high quality, even ranging down to the metal Logitech branding below the space bar. The finish of the board intself is very durable and strong, and the keys all have a good solid feel to them with perfect indenting for your fingers (which I've come to like from Logitech keyboards...I'm not a fan of 'chiclet' keys). The USB cable that comes out is also a thick gauge and is plenty long for any application in my mind. Yes, to use the keyboard you do require 2 free USB ports, but this is for the fact that there is a USB passthrough port located on the back of the keyboard and it also deals with the anti-ghosting and 26 key rollover features. Be aware that you need 2 USB ports or it will not work. Also to note that this keyboard DID work in my BIOS, unlike some other keyboards that use 2 USB ports that will NOT work in your BIOS/UEFI.
The actuation of the keys is fantastic - for a good typer, you will notice that your speed will increase, if ever so slightly. The keys require much less force to enact a keystroke, which makes typing both more comfortable and much easier to do. While you can still slam and for the keys to bottom out, it's not required. All the keys on the keyboard, including the G keys, are mechanical - the only keys that are not are the Memory keys up top and the media keys on the right of the keyboard. This keyboard uses Cherry MX Brown switches, which in my opinion, are between the Red's and the Blue's - i think it;s a perfect mix of typing capability and gaming use. I did not have any issues with typing up a long memo on the keyboard, and then later playing Battlefield 3 on it - both were a joy to do. The backlighting on the keyboard is good as well - it only comes in a clear color and cannot be changed to others (like many other Logitech keyboards going from Red to blue, etc...), but the intensity of the light has 5 different settings from very very bright to off. You can also adjust the lighting for the WSAD and arrow keys individually, meaning that you could have only WSAD lit up and the rest of the keyboard dark if desired. Overall, much brigher than the G110 could ever get, but lacking in the color which isn't a big deal to me.
Only 2 minor pet-peeves for me are: 1 - the orange plastic around the G keys - looks somewhat out of place on this keyboard, black or grey would have been a better choice in my mind. Not that big a deal, only a cosmetic annoyance to me. 2 - The caps lock key is flat all the way through. On the G110, the caps lock key has a slight indenture at the right edge to allow your pinky finger to sense the edge of the 'A' key and realize where the CAPS lock starts. Just something I have to get used to, but it's nevertheless there.
Overall, this is probably the best keyboard I've ever typed on - while it is somewhat priceier than competeting keyboards, I feel the Logitech brand is a solid brand and the build of this keyboard is fantastic.
First, its features:
Dual zone lighting, at first I thought this to be a simple gimick, but if you play in low to-almost-no-light rooms, the dual zone comes in handy. With the press of a button, you can adjust the brightness of the entire keyboard, but also isolate the W,A,S,D and arrow keys, so you can have the entire keyboard off with only those keys on. I found this to be extremely useful for when playing games like BF3.
Macros, both on the fly and pre-gaming. Macros can be done on the fly. LUAs are done before hand. Whatever your style, you'll find this to be an easy task and will become familiar fairly quick. Logitech has experience with macros, so if you've used their keyboards before, you should have no problems here.
As expected, and which should be the standard with gaming boards, the G710+ has a "gaming" key, which will render the windows key useless while playing games, so no risk of accidental window mode taking you to the desktop while playing.
USB 2.0 passthrough. Great for peripherals, such as mice, headsets, etc. I tested it with a razer mamba and had no issues, I also tested it with Logitech's own G700 mouse and worked perfectly.
Media keys, which enable playback, track foward/back, stop and a very useful and well built volume wheel, which feels solid and extremely responsive.
Now, the main reason this keyboard is a beast and a gamers dream...The superb, anti-ghosting mechanical keys. These are excellent in every sense of the word. If you are an avid FPS player, this keyboard will improve your input/output ratio with great results. Each key has a Cherry Brown switch made by the masters at ZF Electronics, which used to be called the Cherry company. Do not fear though, the quality is still there and you can feel it.
While playing BF3, the board did an excellent job at translating my every key stroke into a perfect output, each key stroke engages its respective switch, eliminating ghosting. Multiple key functions are also improved, going to prone, to crouch and slidding at the same time is done with such ease that I my hands/fingers felt more natural and at rest, even after hours of playing.
During RPGs, RTS and other genres, I found the macros to work as I had them programmed. Reaching for the keys was never an issue. Menus and their subs, such as inventory, quest, etc. worked with each key stroke as well.
Typing: not really the reason why I bought the board, but worth mentioning. Have you ever tried to login into your email acount and mistakenly press more keys when entering your password? With the G710+ you won't, because as you get to use it more and more, your brain will adapt to the fact that each key represents a single digit, period and you'll feel it as well.
Build:
Well made, high quality parts. Heavy, but not like a brick either, it's hard to describe. It is well balanced and feels very comfortable to use during long gaming sessions.
Noise:
Logitecs claims this keyboard to be very quiet, but that's not the case. They tried to decrease the amount of "click" noise by including O-rings under each key to function as noise dampeners, which work to an extend, but if you are migrating from a common rubber membrane style of board (Logitech G19, G510, Razer, etc), you will notice the noise even more. But quite honestly, it can't be avoided. Don't be fooled though, the noise is not incredible loud either, I've heard statements such as "if your neighbor (gaming neighbor) doesn't like noise, then mechanical is not for you", this far from true, the fact is , it does make noise, but not hammer and chisel noise. If you have a rubber membrane board, press on a key, it makes noise right? well, the mechanical does the same but it is more of a dry, more pronounced noise.
In conclusion. If you are a PC gamer, you should defenitely give the G710+ a try. You can trust me and buy this keyboard. If not, go to your local PC store and play around with their display models. I did and tried Razer's Blackwidow Ultimate, which uses Blue switches, I also happened to try (from a friend)the "stealth version", which uses Brown switches, and quite honestly, the amount of noise was just about the same, but the "tactical" feel was a bit loose, at least for my taste.
So there it is. I tested this bad boy and as always, Logitech delivers. Not only has it made an excellent mechanical keyboard, but it has kept it at an affordable price with hight quality parts. The software is easy to use and the user experience from gaming to typing has improved, at least for me.
Top reviews from other countries
Prima di acquistare il prodotto ho fatto alcune verifiche, contattando più volte il venditore, il quale, penso, mi avrà preso per pazzo!
Si tratta, infatti, di un venditore tedesco, che su Amazon.de ha parecchie recensioni, tutte positive. Qui, su Amazon.it, invece, non ne ha nessuna, e la cosa mi preoccupava non poco, anche e soprattutto vista la recente notizia di account di venditori, soprattutto tedeschi, hackerati, e utilizzati per creare finte inserzioni su altri store Amazon.
Ho contattato, allora, il venditore, sia via Amazon.it, sia via Amazon.de, sia usando un indirizzo email reperibile sul suo sito.
Egli mi ha assicurato che il prodotto era affidabile, che si trattava della 710+, e che il prodotto era in condizioni ottime. Infatti si tratta di una tastiera usata per appena 4 giorni, durante i quali è stata esposta al Gamescom.
L'articolo è arrivato in un imballaggio perfetto, e la sua confezione originale, completa di tutto, non aveva nemmeno un graffio.
La tastiera è in condizioni ottime, e non presenta alcun segno di usura. Tutti i tasti funzionano al meglio, l'illuminazione non presenta alcun led non funzionante, e il passthrough USB 2.0 non dà alcun problema.
Veniamo alla tastiera in sé: si tratta di una tastiera meccanica, gemella della G710, la quale monta, come switch, gli Cherry MX Blue. Questa, invece, usa i Brown. Si tratta di switch spesso scelti per chi utilizza il PC più per lavorare che per giocare, come è il mio caso. Essi hanno una forza di attivazione di 45g, un feedback tattile all'attivazione, e una corsa efficace di 2mm, a fronte di una corsa totale di 4mm. La forza necessaria ad arrivare fino in fondo alla corsa totale è di circa 55g. Si tratta di un tipo di switch che sto trovando davvero gradevole, e mi ci sono abituato quasi subito. Inoltre, venendo da una tastiera a membrana di livello basso, sto appezzando non poco la novità! Ancora, mi aspettavo che gli switch fossero più rumorosi, e la cosa mi ha piacevolmente sorpreso.
La tastiera in sé ha una qualità costruttiva ottima, seppur la scocca sia di plastica. Una parte del rivestimento frontale ha una plastica glossy, l'altra, invece, ha una plastica matte. La retroilluminazione ha due zone indipendenti, una costituita dai tasti WASD e dalle frecce direzionali, e l'altra, invece, da tutto il resto della tastiera. Vi sono 5 livelli di illuminazione: 100%, 75%, 50%, 25%, 0%. Mi sto trovando bene a usare quello al 50%, che trovo molto gradevole, soprattutto la sera, mentre quelli al 100% e 75% trovo siano troppo brillanti, tanto da dare fastidio anche mentre si guarda lo schermo. Piacevole, inoltre, il feeling della plastica dei tasti, abbastanza ruvida sotto le dita. I tasti hanno una geometria concava che limita la deriva delle dita, cosa che trovo molto utile.
Ci tengo a sottolineare che la tastiera ha un layout US, diverso da quello italiano. Sul sito della Logitech è possibile acquistare i kaycaps sostitutivi per passare al layout Italiano, ma, visto il costo della tastiera (70€ comprensivi di spedizione), e visto il costo del set di keycaps (25€ + spedizione), direi che non ne vale assolutamente la pena.
La tastiera è dotata di 6 tasti G configurabili come meglio si crede, tramite il software adeguato scaricabile dal sito della casa madre. Inoltre, essa ha 4 modalità di funzionamento, a ciascuna di esse associata una diversa funzione dei tasti G, e, tramite software, è possibile definire alcuni profili di funzionamento; a ciascuno di essi viene associata una diversa combinazione di modalità. Insomma, la scelta, per quanto riguarda le modalità di impiego e il relativo comportamento della tastiera, è veramente vasta. Forse anche troppo, per quel che mi riguarda, non avendo particolarmente a cuore l'universo dei MMORPG!
Ancora, essa dispone di una porta USB 2.0 sul retro, che ho utilizzato per collegare il mouse, e ridurre il numero di cavi a vista sulla scrivania.
Proprio per via della presenza del passthrough USB, la tastiera necessita di due porte USB per funzionare: una dedicata alla tastiera in sé, l'altra, invece, al passthrough.
Sul backplate della tastiera è presente una guida per portare un eventuale cavo USB all'utente, anche se non riesco a immaginare chi mai vorrebbe usare una cosa del genere!
La tastiera arriva corredata di poggiapolsi, in plastica, removibile, che trovo particolarmente comodo, seppur esteticamente non eccelso.
Ancora, ha dei tasti multimediali particolarmente comuni, nel mondo delle tastiere meccaniche, ma altrettanto comodi ed eleganti, e dispone del sempre più classico pulsante per disattivare il tasto Windows, dedicato alle sessioni di gioco più immersive.
Insomma, ora come ora non riesco a trovare un punto a sfavore di questo prodotto, né del venditore. Mi riservo, però, di aggiornare la recensione tra una settimana, e ancora tra un mese, per vedere come si comporta nel tempo. Inoltre, ancora non l'ho provata in game, quindi non so dire come mi troverò. Corredata di 26 rollover keys, e 110 antighosting keys, dovrebbe comportarsi davvero bene. Francamente, suppongo che sarà tanto valida quanto lo è stata per scrivere questa (noiosamente lunga!) recensione!

Came from a Perrix 5200 with Cherry MX blue switches, which started to auto-type double i or t character after 3 months
I chose MX brown switches this time as the MX blue are really nice and crisp, but just too loud when typing while on the phone.
The MX brown switches plus the added rubber rings make this a precise and quiet keyboard to type on.
I do not see any disadvantage using the MX brown switches compared to the MX blue on my Perrix, except in the beginning the pressure/switch point is maybe slightly less pronounced, but after a few weeks I feel the MX brown pressure/switch point very clearly.
Extremely well done macro software, including exceptionally useful ability to set typing speed for macros, but sadly macro keys only work when software/driver runs.
Software downloads and installs automatically in Windows 10 (pro) when the keyboard is connected for the first time.
Backlighting is adjustable in just the right amount of steps
Macro keys are convenient to set up and edit, with or without the software.
It is easy to see which set of the three macro keys is selected.
Would have been nice if the macro key row were on top, horizontal, not on the left, vertical, I sometimes hit G6 instead of Control, but just takes some getting used to.
La tastiera la conosciamo un po' tutti nell'ambito gaming, è un must classico. Il feeling tattile è ottimo, ogni elemento dà l'impressione di resistenza seppur sia realizzata in plastica, non è un'acchiappapolvere come altri dispositivi simili il che sottolinea una buona qualità delle vernici. Ottimo anche il prezzo dell'usato pari al nuovo, con 69 euro compresa spedizione ho portato (anzi, mi hanno portato eheh) a casa una tastiera dalle qualità indubbie, leggendaria.
There is really not much more for me to add. It is the best keyboard I've ever bought. I highly recommend this.
