Logitech g815 vs Razer huntsman elite

The Torrent

Both similarly priced.

 

i understand huntsman, it has their new light switches whatever so I get why it’s expensive,

 

it also has nice nice rgb and a wrist wrest.

 

but Logitech just seems like a normal keyboard just thinner so they charging silly money for it.

 

which is better and can anyone justify logitech’s keyboard price?

Yes I went from a Black Widow to G910 and man no comparison.  Logitech hands down.  The BlackWidow was a freakin type writer I would hit wrong keys and couldnt type as fast.. no smooth flow ,, to tactile or clicky ....... 

 

Im waiting on my G915 as I ordered it but amazon doesn't have it in stock until possibly October.  I believe the 810 as well has a amazing Romero switches. 

 

To justify the price, the facts are they can charge whatever they want I mean G815 200 bucks ya 200 bones is a lot but in return you get something your gonna use for 10 years or 50 million key presses. 

 

The G815 has many reasons why they charge 200 bones for it.  The keys are half size of regular keyboard.  Its not like its a MAC keyboard where its thin and sorta no good.  Also they use military grade aluminum alloy and its the size of a smart phone with a cover on it.  the media keys and the sick volume scroll wheel.  Couple this with new Romero GL switches  Clicky for type writer feel and sound then tactile which is about the same, but I opt for Linear.  As for wrist rest you don't need one with the G815 as once you kick the legs up your desk becomes your wrist pad, so I commend them for not throwing in a wrist pad.  Also it has G keys you can use for macro or simply just launch apps.  I watched bunch of videos on it and some guy uses the clicky and tactile and Linear ,,,,, You will have to hear it to see if its in your liking.  The feel will be there from the get go even tho its low profile.  I know I will love it as I love my G910 and that was 130 dollars.  To me the price makes sense... I mean sure they make a butt load of money off each sell and that is how it is when you go Premium and probably the most well known peripheral company.  So ya they milk it but IMO it is worth it as it is a very long term investment ya know.

OH SH*T my bad.  Wow that is insane of a deal.  How did you pull that off ? US dollar those three will go to 300 bucks plus range.  So man you got a steal of a deal.  Also the surface is aluminum and it has the media keys and scroll wheel and a wrist pad.  You buy those used or what cuz it just doesn't make sense for a site to sell like this for dirt cheap.

a guy from ebay bought a few entire setups while a shop was closing down and sold me the 3 super cheap. he said they where opened to be used in a video for the shop and then all the builds where boxed up when the shop shut down.
