Overall and FV
After seeing so many mechanical keyboards, I really start to wonder if anyone will come out with anything a little different. Logitech may not have been the first to market, but they took their time and made sure to introduce something that is different from the competition. The combination of brown key switches and rubber O-ring silencers, the G710+ is one of the quietest mechanical keyboards that we have ever taken a look at. What is even more interesting to me is the combination of the gaming styling with the white backlighting that gives the G710+ a little class. During all of my time with it, I really didn’t have any issues or complaints about the keyboard. I could completely go without the macro keys all together, but I am happy to put up with them and have the great software and media controls that have made past Logitech keyboards a staple in my household before we went full mechanical.
Really the only issue I can find with the G710+ is its MSRP. I’ve come to expect a fairly high price tag when it comes to a good mechanical keyboard with backlighting. But at just under $150 the MSRP puts the G710+ up in the same price range as a Semi Custom Max Keyboard or some of the imported boards like Duckys. Although I think that Logitech put together an amazing keyboard, they did price it up at a price point that is out of range of a lot of people. Imagine what they would be charging for this same keyboard with an LCD screen. But when not taking price into consideration, Logitech has put together one of the best mechanical gaming keyboards on the market.
