Had a Logitech G15 for years, loved it but it's showing to show some wear and tear.

Looking at a worthy successor.. between the Logitech G710+ and the Corsair K70.

Could use a second opinion though.

For the price I would go for the Corsair K70 why? Because the build quality is much better for the price.

I have a G710+ and it has been great for the time I have had it, only thing I had to get used to was the extra macro keys on the left. The Cherry Browns feel and sound great, the back lighting is pretty good with a good selection of brightness settings. Not really all too much to say about it other than it is really great for the price.

The macro keys are nothing new, the only thing I'd be losing is the little display the G15 has.

I don't tend to use them for anything more than toggling my mic on comms and the ocassional bind when having to deal with data in spreadsheets. Both uses I could probably use something like Autohotkey instead if I was to look at the K70.

Besides the standard keyboard features, I really like the wrist rests that both keyboards have. It's a somewhat underappreciated feature but my wrists love it especially after hours of gaming.

I haven't tried one of those cherry key tester things, so not sure if the Browns on the G710+ are right for me. The G15 has a membrane.

The ending is just the beginning repeating.

I know they are nothing new, the keyboard I had before this was a $15 12 year old Logitech M&K combo, so it was something I had to get used to. I don't use them very often either.

The G910 looks horrible. Just bad design choices all around and the key caps aren't replaceable.

Only someone who never touched it would say something like that ;)
