They do not use those heavy indented keys with this one.


Only over time i bet cost a lot to design it, but i cannot see why they should because they made their own switch and to me that would just force everyone make even cheaper keyboards and even possibly make cherry make their switches cheaper ( quality wise ).
Yea I just feel they're charging a premium. I know Omron is located in Japan, but I feel it'd still be cheaper than getting German made switches like Razer moving to chinese knock offs. Plus I feel every Logitech peripheral is overpriced just because it's Logitech. I mean I love my 502 and 700 but with how often the switches fail in these mice (particularly g700) I'd say the quality of these mechanical switches probably isn't much better. That's just an assumption though.

No, that would be the action figure of Quiet. My MX Clears on my CODE make me nut when I type. I simply did not like Romer G keys. All preference of course, but technically speaking these keyboards should be cheaper and they are still charging a hefty premium.

There is not doubt Logitech puts a $$$ premium for the name. They earned it, IMO. People might nitpick this or that on a mouse or keyboard, but in the end the over-all quality of what they make is usually superior. Quality products and CS inspire loyalty, which can reflect on someone's future purchases.

I didnt buy the Orion Spark just because of the Romer-G keys, I bought it because of the macro keys and the gaming software that was already installed from owning the G15 (which is still in perfect condition after 10 years).
