I just got this keyboard. One thing that is never mentioned in getting a TKL is that you can just buy a cheap 5-10 bucks USB/Wireless numpad. I pull the numpad down when working, then just put it away once I start gaming. It's really the best of both worlds.
Cons2911 I just got this keyboard over a week ago. Truely an amazing keyboard so far. It is great looking and incredibly thin. I got the clicky version, it is not loud at all. The click sound provides a great feedback and is pretty satisfying. And it doesn't have issue like a lot of other RGB keyboard -- light leaking out from the gap of the keys. I also find the volume wheel very useful. So far, a great purchase.
I love full size keyboards but have been looking at tenkeyless now that I am gaming more. The extra room for mouse movement is what is appealing to me. Great video

I would definitely recommend getting the keyboard, it really helps on desk space for anyone that's wondering! If you need a numpad, just buy a separate numpad and plug it in when you need it. Everything else is on the keyboard. I have the logitech version like the one in this video and its awesome!!
I have both the G915 and G915 TKL in tactile. I love them both. That said, they really should have double shot key caps and USB-C charging (I realize these things are stated by everyone). It's not the end of the world, but would have increased the value substantially.
More important question than keyboards, That monitor, Do you find the blooming around the mouse and text ever a real issue? Im tempted to go ultrawide and the full fald is tempting..
If the full size 915 came without the macro keys, I would of bought that. So I ended up getting the TKL. I'm still getting used to the number pad not being there, but I'm happy with the keyboard.
I have both the regular for my desk and the tkl for my tv setup in tactile and these are some of the best keyboards I have ever used. Paired with a g903 this is a great clean combo. Yes it’s pricey but when I initially got the regular I went with a 2080 super rather than a 2080ti and used the saving to pick up the keyboard and other stuff and still came out less then the 2080ti.
@@BrickBazooka I use both but the one with the number pad more. That one is on my desk. I have my work laptop too paired to the Bluetooth of the keyboard and use it for work. The number pad makes it easy for work. At night I stitch it to wireless for my gaming pc. The tkl fits perfect on a piece of wood I cut out to place on my lap along with my mouse so I can play occasionally on my tv with my other pc. If I did not need the number pad the tkl gives more space to move your mouse.
@@Blaquegold and that's comfy? I can understand playing with Controller laid back on the couch is satisfying but with a tkl and mouse mhhh. Can't see that for me. The fullsize keyboard is so big, so mouse movement is little and typing a but uncomfortable. The tkl misses of course the numblock, but I think I could learn how to avoid it, since I want to use tkl also mainly for work. Sales man, numbers, excel, but also emails and games later :D
@@BrickBazooka you will be SHOCKED on how you can have a comfy setup. I have the tkl on a 11x25 particle board that’s big enough for the keyboard at like a 30 degree angle with the mouse on a mouse pad and I play laid back all the time. At times I have my mouse pad that has a hard back beside me on the sofa as the keyboard is on the piece of particle board I had cut at Home Depot. it is equally as comfy as a controller and for me sometimes more as I am laid back. Believe it or not I get less cramps in fingers as the m&k are exactly where I want them. If a 60% version comes out today I’m getting it to even make it easier if I want the mouse on the board. I mainly play my casual games on the sofa but if I want to get serious I use my desk setup.
Hey Bud, love the video! To be honest with you, I've worked in finance for over 20+ years, and dealt alot with spreadsheets in my time. I used the numeric keypad all the time for spreadsheets. Now that I'm out of the finance world, and want to get into gaming, I'm now questioning myself if it's worth having the numeric keypad on the side. I don't mind change, but I'm still trying to figure out in my head if I can use a keyboard that doesn't have a numeric keypad on it? In my eyes, it looks odd not seeing that numeric keypad on the side. But do I really need to have the numeric keyboard? Weird I know, but I guess when I need a new keyboard, I'll try one without the numeric keypad. But I'm still not sure. LOL!!!! Thank you for the video. - Mike
Thanks for the video been thinking of going smaller for a while! It’s my first foray into gaming keyboards and need to use it for both work& play. Have you got a vid on the difference between the key types you mentioned?
I know I'm going to get one or the other of the G915s but I still don't know which - I'm so used to having a numpad that I wonder whether I'm being weird about NOT having one possibly
Just bought the tkl thinking us intl means ANSI... It's even ANSI on the box, but to my surprise, it was ISO. I'm losing my mind, even on the site i got it from, the product page has pics with the ANSI keeb. Why don't they just say ISO and ANSI instead of the vague US Intl?
Which keyswitch do people recommend for this TKL? I don't game, only type. MX browns are too much travel, and hurt my wrists after too much typing. What is recommended? linear, clicky, or tactile?
I've got both TKL and Reg G915. Love them both for different reasons though. I'm a traditional keyboard user so I am still getting used to the TKL version. One thing's certain though, I have the best of both worlds.
@@Cons2911 no issues so far🤞🤞. I don't know what ppl be doing but I take care of my things. Too expensive to be damaging, plus I don't eat or drink around my pc
Does anyone know ho to set the keyboard so the Rgb lights never turn off unless you turn off the keyboard or toggle the rgb on and off ? Plz help new to pc
Im buying the G915 TKL white and im dead set, i have a full size now and i really want more space for my mouse and the numberpad isnt important enough haha
as someone who uses ctrl Z alot in my illustration works and seeing the / key next to the Z I've realize this is not the type for me, so I'll keep looking
Forgive me if I am wrong but could that just be that he has a different keyboard layout to your standard? It might be worth checking on the Logitech website to see an image of the keyboard in the different layouts. :)
My laptop has a full size, but I am working on a laptop setup and I don't know if I should go Tenkeyless or not. I don't use the keypad that much. I know that for sure haha
I have the full size g915 great keyboard I am a full sized keyboard guy always have been. In saying that haven’t tried a TKL either so not sure what I’m missing out on either.
@@joshuathefirst great keyboard man no complaints at all, good battery life wish it was usb c. Is the only thing as my new steelseries prime mouse is usb c. Other than that small gripe its great
what i noticed from this video is that gamer guys often have very similar fingers... i know that sounds weird, but the long bony fingers so beautifully shown by our lovely Marcus here is what i'm talking about 🙂
I can't stand full size keyboards I never used the number pad and found it a complete waste of time. My keyboards a TKL Full size is just way too big, that Logitech does look like a nice though.
i just want a company to make a full size keyboard with the number cluster and arrow keys on the leftside, why is that too much to ask for? good on LGT for making a 60% but the full size desing is flawed and needs to be addressed by a company now 😡, having to leave my mouse to use the numbers is terrible and i can't believe it has been like that for decades.
While using applications like Blender, TKL is not great as the number pad is used for changing views. There are lot more stuff which ig you don't care about which can be done with the number pads like unicode special characters and stuff like that. Buying a TKL is a waste of money tbh.
Yessir (or ma’am). I have the alloy origins core. Never really used the media or macro keys, and I game a lot, + a ton of other stuff, and it was 100% worth it
Though I do use the number pad quiet frequently, the thing that makes TKL worse than the full sized version is just the overall looks. I just like the bigger look.
I bought a Razer Huntsman Tournament TKL keyboard back in July and all was fun and dandy for a while... now, I keep having ghosting issues with the WASD mainly but other keys too when typing big texts. I'm thinking of changing it for something else...

If you play arma 3 do not get tkl. You need the enter to change first person or third view and when running you need the numpad to look around. Tkl is for girls playing cod
Help Help Help i need Help for an I7 9700k build with a 2080 super but dont know which motherboard to buy that wont cost the earth its doing my head in please help it will also have a m.2 drive and a ssd. p.s. love the content.......help.
always tkl is the best, then if you need numpad buy it separatelyt and even a macro pad too, still people that work with macros you can program both keyboards
Too bad you cannot buy this. I've been looking to buy this for 3-4 weeks now, but it's constantly sold out. I asked Logitech when it's going to be available, but they don't know either.
I would of 100% said bigger one, but after watching this video I’d be inclined to buy the smaller one. However as I am working from home the number pad helps and I wouldn’t give it up. But when I finish my other PC (non gaming - more than likely be after iso so I still have a pc in case I stuff it lol) I will consider buying the small one. I’m sure in 5 mins I’ll be like no I’m getting smaller one for sure
This is my problem as well! For me, i just told myself that i don’t always buy a gaming keyboard im not a keyboard collector so i should buy the best and durable

100% thats what im going to do. i feel it is easier to type without that in my way. Keeps the keyboard centered. Can't wait to switch.
I bought the TKL about a month ago and love it. Seems a high price but it has a high quality finish and gives more space for your mouse

If the full size 915 came without the macro keys, I would of bought that. So I ended up getting the TKL. I'm still getting used to the number pad not being there, but I'm happy with the keyboard.
You still happy with the tkl model? Iam about to decide whether I should pick tkl or fullsize
Which is the best Processor between two AMD or Intel. I want to buy gaming CPU so I am asking about these two Processors.
awesome setup champ
I bought this keyboard and it's the best keyboard i have ever uses, the buttons feeling is something special..
Call me old fashioned, but I like full sized. I have the G915 Clicky model, it’s awesome 👍
I'll buy it tomorrow love every aspect of that keyboard well except the price I think 180dls would be awesome great video
The full size one is more like full sized+ with those G keys on the side. I returned mine and got the TKL version
And do you like it better? Not needed the numbpad anymore?
Can I use two different devices at the same time with either keyboards?
Can this one switch between three devices, like the full-size can?
It does look very premium, I would like to try the TKL.
