|
 |
So, here we go again, and almost a year to the day I bought the G513 keyboard, which was a replacement for the G513 I bought a year before this one.
Usual Logitech utter fuckin shit switches nonsense, double typing galore, starting off slow, but progressively getting to the point of me wanting to ram the fucker up any cunts arse. GX Browns, which were an upgrade from my previous version, but no longevity as per usual. I'd reckon if I were a proper typist, then 7 months could be easily shaved off that period.
My 3rd G502 has now started the same shit also, although only 9 months on this one, but I'm fine with that, as I expected it to happen (well I've had 3), and have the required superior switches to replace them with. Same happened with both my G900 & G903, a year at most, then LogiFuck crap.
I'm done with Logitech finally, so much waste, same problems each and every time, the forums are flooded with thousands of the same issues, with both products, and others in their range. I'm beginning to think its deliberate, to make you buy another or their latest?
Fuckin asswipes!
Congratulations Logitech, you now move to No. 2 on my most hated list, just below MS, and just above EA!

I have the cheapo sharkoon skiller mechanical keyboard and the keys are as fresh as they were on the first day. And this even though my lil boy abused them like hell.

G513 uses the shit logitech Romer G switches, new models uses different design and are far more durable. However i will not touch logitech products anymore, their G pro software is absolutely shit bloatware.

Why is this company still in business? Now even keyboards doubleclick? I have RMA'd my G502 lightspeed 3 times already. Surely people aren't so stupid as to buy these expensive products and just let Logitech be by buying something else when they start having issues?

Thanks for the suggestions, Ducky's seem pretty complicated to get in France for a non blatantly inflated price, but Roccat's seem to be in a more reasonable price range !
Edit : Reading reviews for both brands and a variety of their respective models, seems like both still have durability issues with a number of users complaining about double taps, ghosting, keys not working altogether.. it does seem like it's a systemic issue for all sorts and qualities of mechanical keyboards.
I'll try going for a Ducky, since they're regarded as durable - a lot of them don't have numpad, which bothers me, and it that fails me too I'll just revert to a cheap membrane keyboard, not gonna spend +100€ every couple years forever

I think any old school logitech item is built like a tank. Anything 'newish' is all flash no substance. Good for a while, then something minor starts screwing up.
The few MX518 I have from 10+ years ago still work like a champ. My kids both use them and they are ooold as hell.
An old Logitech keyboard I have hooked to my VMware server is at least 15+ years old and still works and feels great.
Right now I have a reddragon keyboard and for the price I cannot praise it enough. All metal shell, compact size that is still a 'full' sized layout. And replaceable keys AND switches that just unplug and swap out, I want to change them to all blue or red switches? Just swap them. RGB for my tastes (I Don't need flashy reactive ones. it has some option, but pure white RGB keys for low light typing is what I like).

I'm still using my Logitech G9x. The only thing I've had to do was to replace the button switches. I've had it for a decade in other words.
