I tried the G512 GX BROWN.

The keyboard is like a soldier's gun on the battlefield. A small difference in tactile sense determines whether a game is won or lost, and a single typo, the feeling of touching the fingertips, and the repulsive force greatly affect work efficiency.

  

It proves that the most important thing for a modern person sitting at a desk is to find a keyboard that suits them more than a good keyboard.

The Logitech G512 GX Brown brown mechanical keyboard we're looking at may offer a deadline for important choices that start with a question mark.

  

The G lineup is Logitech's professional gaming gear brand, and the keyboard consists of G413, G512 GX, G610, G613, PRO X, G813, G913 Lightspeed.

  

The G512 GX is a low-cost entry-level mechanical keyboard among the 7 brothers, and it can be seen as a product that shows usability according to the user's choice among the three switch types.

  

Length 132mm, width 445mm, height 35.5mm, weight 962g stand-up type full-size 108-key wired keyboard, the cable length is rather generous with a cable length of 1.8m.

  

6 non-slip pads ensure stable typing. You can say it sticks to the basics. Unlike other products, the finish of the rear part was excellent, so there was nothing to point out. Logitech too! It is an elastic detail.

  

The same goes for Logitech 1.

There is also a kickstand that can be adjusted to the height of the user's wrist.

  

A signature detail of the Logitech Mechanical Keyboard G512 is the use of special materials. The top plate is made of 5052 aluminum used in aircraft, so it is lightweight and durable.

  

Here, the detail finished with a metallic hairline stands out.

Can I use this high quality material for my keyboard? It has a lot of premium feel. Although it looks simple on the outside, it can be said that the unique charm of this product is that it looks different depending on the angle of incidence of light.

 

The USB port stands out in the upper-right corner. The USB 2.0 pass-through port allows you to connect a wireless gaming mouse, headset, and USB dongle, and it is convenient to connect a smartphone to charge it.

I wonder what it would be like to upgrade to a USB 3.0 port, but considering the usability of the keyboard, I think USB 2.0 is sufficient.

  

When connecting various devices, it is a good idea to prevent power shortage in advance by providing a dual terminal at the end of the wired cable to prevent power shortage due to the navel rather than the stomach.

  

The heart of the keyboard is the switch, which is an important part. The G512 GX series was released in three types: blue switch (click key), red switch (linear), and brown (tactile), broadening the range of user choice.

This product uses a tactile GX Brown switch, commonly referred to as a Kyle switch. In the case of the G413, I used a Romer-G switch that is quite similar to the cherry, but the mechanical keyboard G512 series have all been renewed with the GX axis.

 

 

GX Switches offer the classic feel of a mechanical keyboard, fast typing, and increased durability. The characteristic of the G512 GX BROWN tactile brown switch is that it is located in the middle of the blue and red axes, which has its own merits.

 

 

It is quieter than the loud (!) of BLUE click, and shows the boundary of key input with a moderate repulsion force rather than the RED linear with strong jamming feeling. Relatively low typing noise makes it suitable for gaming as well as office use.

 

 

However, the switches for RED, BLUE and Brown are not interchangeable, so you have to suffer the pain (!) of having to choose one of the three when making your first choice. For those who want to enter a mechanical keyboard, I highly recommend the GX Brown, which is quiet in the middle and has no jamming.

 

 

The lettering is engraved on the keycap, so it will not be erased even after long use, and it shows good durability. This shows that there is no product as good as the keyboard you are familiar with.

 

 

When a USB power source made of a woven cable is connected to a PC, the backlight LED turns on, revealing the aspect of a game machine. For reference, the G512's LIGHTSYNC RGB lighting can apply colorful effects of 16.8 million colors.

Install Logitech G HUB software to create a variety of lighting animations. The animation that I personally liked the most was the raindrop effect that looked like it was raining from above. It is also possible to apply LED lights customized by other users to your device.

 

 

Logitech, a brand I first encountered with emotion 20 years ago, which has grown into a PC peripheral, is now releasing the G series. Using aircraft material aluminum to catch two rabbits of fashion and durability, the GX switch, developed one step further from the cherry axis, satisfies the typing experience of those who use mechanical keyboards.
