Logitech G710+ Mechanical Gaming Keyboard $99.99 + Free Shipping @ Best Buy & Amazon

Quote from MrWD : Curious. Can you explain why you would get the Leopold ones instead? From the pictures, the keys sure look like high quality with laser-etched characters. However, Logitech's friendly warranty is quite enticing.

I've been using the G710 for a few days now and its a solid keyboard for sure. I've had my leopold for maybe 2 years. Both the G710 and the Leopold are heavy duty well built keyboards and honestly either will last you for a long time. Neither needs a warranty really both keyboards are gonna last you. Both have a good mechanical feel.


Reasons I like Leopold better not in any specific order:

1. detachable/replaceable USB cable on the Leo. (not a silly 2x usb plug like G710 has I don't know why it needs 2)
2. varitey of key caps options (I have blank called something like otaku, I like the minimalist design/styling compared to the racey/silly gamer style on the G710)
3. You can choose which switches you want (red, blue, black, brown)
4. No silly macro keys/software (I've had a few keyboards with them including currently using this one g710 and I don't use/need this feature)
5. option for compact keyboard (no number pad)
6. G710 seems louder than the Leo. Possibly because I have blacks on the Leo and browns on the G710.
