Good deal – The Logitech G613 “4 stars” keyboard at 75.99 € (-20%)

Logitech is now increasingly emphasizing wireless for its gaming peripherals, thanks to its Lightspeed technology which provides a connection as fast as with a cable. After introducing several high-performance wireless mice (G900, then G603, G703 and G903), it is now the G613, a Lightspeed wireless keyboard, which joins the Swiss manufacturer’s G range.

Freed from its wire, the G613 is no less efficient and can count on its reactive mechanical switches to seduce players. Rather complete thanks to its multimedia controls and its macro keys, it does however lack a backlight to really shine, although this ensures a substantial autonomy.

Strong points

• Good keystroke quality / Responsive switches.
• Powerful wireless link.
• Dedicated media controls.
• Dedicated macro keys.
• Palm rests.
• Good finish overall.
• Desktop stability.
• Long autonomy (18 months announced).

Weak points

• Non-removable palm rest / Large footprint on the desk.
• No backlight.
• Looks a little too plastic.

NB: The reported price drop is calculated by comparing the lowest price of the day with the average of the lowest prices charged by all merchants for the product last month, with security rules to exclude prices from shops whose the VAT policy is not clear (known as “grey” shops, typically in the case of imports from China).

Alternatively

Despite a design that will not be unanimous, the Vigor GK50 Low Profile TKL is a good keyboard gaming mechanics with a very interesting price/quality ratio. It is thin, compact, and provides good typing quality. Some welcome accessories are delivered and its backlighting is adjustable key by key, but it will be necessary to make a cross on the dedicated multimedia keys. Please note that this model is clicky and will therefore not be suitable for lovers of discretion.
