Customer Reviews

Huge dissapointment
I bought this keyboard for my brother as a Christmas gift. We found out after plugging it in that the W A S and D keys did not work properly. He would have to push it 4-5 times before the letters would type, which is strange considering its a gaming keyboard and WASD are important gaming keys.

So I returned it to Amazon and received another one, and the new one was wobbly! The plastic arm rest that came with it was not level and so the entire keyboard was unstable. I was very unhappy with this product, for the price that it costs I would except much better quality, and all in all I was very dissatisfied.

G15 Feedback
Pros: Full featured gameing keyboard, included software is functional and very configurable. The two USB ports are a welcome addition, as is backlighting of the board. Layout of keyboard is comfortable and I especially like the LCD display which supports additional downloadable views, such as internet bandwidth activity. A sturdy well made unit.

Cons: Backlight for keyboard has two brightness settings, could use a third higher intensitiy setting. Most keys are not evenly illuminated, with upper part of the key character (about 20% of the upper half) not benefiting from the the backlight intensitiy.

Change for the worse?
I keep coming across this product version as I shop for gamepads and mice. I keep looking at it and thinking, "What the heck did they do?" so I thought I better say something. For me and my WoW gaming the best thing about the OLDER version was the three columns of programmable keys along the left hand side. I didn't think they were enough but now they've cut them back to one column? What the heck?!

The flashy window feature I've always found more gimmicky than useful. The one place I kind of like it is while playing WoW and talking on Vent, it lets you see who is actually talking. But other than that, its just a bell and whistle, eye candy kind of thing.
