As someone who does a lot of typing for work, I can certianly say that having a mechanical keyboard is almost a must in my life now. For about 2 years I've been using the Logitech G110 keyboard as my primary keyboard for both work and gaming. While this keyboard does a good job, once you start typing with a mechanical keyboard, you begin to realize how much effort and lost efficency you have with rubber dome keys, which are commonly found on most keyboards you will encounter.
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.

So far so good!
This is an initial impressions review as I have only had the keyboard for a couple of hours. First this thing is a tank, it's even heaver than my 1987 vintage Micron keyboard. The typing touch is lighter than I expected for a mechanical keyboard but it is definitely a pleasure to type on. I love the mute key and volume roller. The back-light is neat and the three levels accessible via the zone keys works well.I've already downloaded the Logitech gaming software and programmed 4 of the G-Keys and these will greatly increase my productivity, 14 to go! I had problems with my Micron recognizing the BIOS settings for the Num-Lock key and the SharpKeys setup to keep it from accidentally being pressed. The G710 does everything correctly, boots with it on and will not allow it to be turned off unless I use the special key sequence setup in SharpKeys.I've plugged the nano receiver for my Logitech Mouse in the USB 2.0 pass-through in the keyboard freeing a port on my USB 3.0 Hub. Note: This keyboard takes TWO USB 2.0+ ports (I'm sure it's for power) and it says they should be directly on the computer (not a hub) so beware if you have limited ports.I just noticed an interesting thing...the row of number keys is upside down, e.g. Numbers on top and symbols on bottom. Of course the numbers are lit and I assume the symbols will light if capslock is pressed, however I have this turned off in SharpKeys so I can't test it. I'll report back after using this beast for a while. BTW: I've had my eye on this for quite a while but just wasn't willing to shell out what they wanted for it. Got a great deal at Amazon for $89.99 thanks to Kinja deals!

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!
