The reason why I like low profile now is because I have developed really bad wrist pains. The flat keyboard really helps not aggravate my wrists when typing.

the downside of the Razer Deathstalker is no more. I can plug in a cable from a USB Charging device and have still the wireless connection to the PC.

I absolutely love the G915 which I've used for a year or two. It works great for switching between my work PC and my personal desktop on the fly and has an absolutely stunning battery life. One day I'll try Razer keyboards again but I had a series of lemons which forced me to try out the Logitech.

A question to an older video, but would you think that the keys on the Deathstalker are "longish" fingernail friendly for typing, programming, etc.? I currently use an original Blackwidow Chroma (probably 7ish years old now) and have been looking to upgrade. It isn't bad to type on with a little longer nails, but I do at times find my nails accidently hitting other keys when typing fast. I am not sure if this is because they are high profile keys, super responsive over all this time, or what.

Great video! Are you working on a Wooting 60HE review?

In my opinion low profile keyboard are very underrated. Typing on them are gravy. My only problem with them are replacing the keycaps. And limited options in the current marketplace.

Thank you. My K740 was aging out, and I hated the G915 so bad I sent it back in an hour. Glad you convinced me to try my first Razer product, it is a worthy replacement and I love it.

Love the review comparison of the Razor vs Logitech. 👌

Can custom lighting effects be saved to the on-board memory of the keyboard? My work computer won't let me install synapse, so when I switch the keyboard from my PC to my work laptop my lighting effects revert to the default. Any way to keep custom lighting effects if synapse is not running or installed?

I upgraded from the G915 TKL to the Deathstalker V2 Pro TKL. I think the biggest differentiator is the minimal, office-friendly aesthetics with more solid keys on the Razer device. Also, the anti-grease key caps are a gamechanger. The slower wake up time on the Razer is annoying though. All in all, a very small upgrade, but considering I have to see it 50+ hours per week, I am happy with my purchase.

Redragon k621 Horus? Can you do a review/comparison video with that and these. It looks to be nearly the same. Would love to know if it actually compares.

I have the g915 tkl and I love it but after a year or two, a key was double pressing, one on the down stroke and one on the up stroke, what could be going on here? Do I need to replace the switch?

Been using a G915 Clicky the past year ad absolutely love it. It really is true that there really is no other options in the wireless RGB low profile mechanical keyboard.

So I'm typing this right now on the G915 TKL. I'd like to say that this review is pretty spot on. However, I picked my kb up renewed for about $120, which I thought was a fair price for the hardware. The loose keycaps are a tad bit annoying at first but not an issue after a day or two. Volume rocker is loose but not to the point where I feel like I'm overshooting the volume I'm trying to change to. Battery life has been great. I love the instant reconnect and responsiveness. Definitely prefer the media/mode switches at the top of the G915. As I side note, this is now my new main controller for fighting games. Anyone in the FG space knows that low profile switches are becoming popular on the new arcade hitboxes and as someone who has mainly played fighting games on keyboard the G915 hits the spot. Combo timing is spot on and with the brown switches I have a lot less accidental inputs.

I am happy with you making this video because I felt that all the other hype videos ignored the G915. I think that the full media keys are probably the reason why I loved the TKL version of Logi vs others in the market. As you mentioned it is a really small market of people who are looking for something like this and I hope that it grows in popularity so more brands join in and perhaps a v2 of the G915 finally comes out!

I'm using a black G915 TKL with Tactile switches right now. Readily available on Amazon and Logitech's own website. Maybe it's a regional difference and it's not available in NA?

Is this a new camera or upload compression? You're looking wicked sharp today. Oh - and good content! Why can't I find a mechanical-optical keyboard with BROWN feel switches? I want to feel the tactile bump without having to mute myself every time I type.

They are neat as far as offering wireless like mice and low profile too. Yeah pricey, but would be good to see more of these, also with PBT keycaps, optical switches with Cherry MX stem support, but extra housing for stability, hot-swap support, really that would be amazing.

One thing you never mention on your Razer reviews is the fact they don’t let you save lightning profile to the on-board memory and force you to use and have their synaps software running at all times, on the other hand on Logitech keyboard and mouses you can save all your custom lightning profiles to the on board memory.

Does the V2 Pro have a metal body like the g915? Also the DS TKL comes with Clicky, its on their webiste.

The 915TKL is just amazing, battery life is good, latency is basically not there. I had 2 915TKL's, a black clicky, and a tactile white one, I prefer the aesthetic of the white one and the tactile keys more. I just wished they used Type-C USB instead of the Micro-USB. It would be nice if they made a version where you can remove the numpad or remove it, since its wireless I don't think its much of an issue.

hey could you please follow up if they updated a firmware to fix the response/wake up time after idling? That is the only thing keeps me from buying it.

I love this channel so much, I watch their ads without skipping past them. Dimitri's voiceovers are fun, the photography is top-notch as usual, and his segues are silly and literally make me laugh.

I got the G915 Clicky, for 156e shipped. Been really, really happy with it. Had the Orion Spectrum earlier and never really liked the way those keys felt. With the clicky keys, my typing got A LOT faster and better. I also love the sound they make, it's like soothing my mind as I type away... 😁 I know all people doesn't like that clicking. But I really do!

The 915 keycaps are garbage. I've had to replace multiple keycaps because the coating wears off. Finding replacements is sort of pain since Logitech doesn't offer them. For the price of the board, they should be doubleshot. Otherwise I really liked the keyboard.

As I G915 owner in the UK, I must say I've been really happy with it. They can be had brand new for much less than the Razer and although it's not as good, it's still a great wireless low profile keyboard. What mouse pad is that Dimitri? Thanks man.

Nice glasses frame, can you tell me the brand thanks ?

Hey I have a G915 TKL Grey Tactile. Did they stop producing it or is this a mistake??

Nice review but one question remains unanswered😊 It's not even answer on the Razer website. Can the deathwalker be used with Android and/or iPhone/Apple TV?

I think you need to include some gaming laptops to the key press comparison. I actually prefer my 915 TKL after having been a laptop user for a number of years now and absolutely fly when typing. Also why not bring the Keychron K1 into this?

Why do you say that there aren’t other keyboards which are competing in that area? What about NuPhy Air75 or Keychron K1?

Do these low profile switches (linear ones) produce lesser noise than standard silent switches (silent variants by cherry/kailh/gateron)?

Hey Dimitri! Has your DeathStalker v2 Pro had an issue with Synapse showing device charged to 100% but as soon as you unplug it drops to 97%?

There are other solid alternative with both USB and dongle speed connection ?

Are you actually not recommending the razer keyboard for competitive play? 8:32

Can you tell me that doesn eny of these 2 can be peogrammed to have a dediceted prnt screen buttom?

I'm confused... Dmitri says that the G915 TKL does not come with the Brown tactile switches in Black, yet I have that model with the tactile switches? Can anybody explain

Deathstalker V2 Pro or Razer BlackWidow V3 Pro for wireless ? can't get which is better

I’m excited to see Logitech to respond to this with a follow up to the original G915. Low profile mechanical keyboards can be so comfortable to use, because there’s no need for a wristrest since the keys are closer to the desk. It also has a nice modern aesthetic to it. I’d really like to see such Keyboard in a 75% or 65% layout.

Will u Test the Roccat Kone XP Air?

Does Razer have keycaps (command, option) for Mac?

I don't have the issue with the keyboard disconnecting when plugged into a wall wart. Maybe the firmware got updated in the past year. However, the connection strength between the keyboard and dongle under either condition is shockingly weak. If I lean back and cross my legs and lay the keyboard in my lap, disconnected. I even mounted the dongle from above on a mic and it still does the same thing. Just get a leg near the f4 and the keyboard is off. That doesn't happen with any other keyboard I have, and I have more than a dozen of these wireless mechanical keyboards.

How does the G915 TKL compare to the MX Key Mechanical?

Appreciated for the review mate, you really save my $220. Planning to get DS V2 TKL. But the big issue for me is to charge them ( you have to disconnect from everything, thats no no no)I'm more like ready to go. So I think I will stick with cable until they fix that issue or have newer versions

Redragon's thrown their hat in the ring now too with the Horus and Horus TKL. Would be cool to see a comparison between the three, with the Horus being a much more budget-oriented option.

This was just the video I was looking for - Thank you!

I got the g815 (wired version of the 915) and I just can't go back to normal keycaps. I just love the low profile one too much now!

I've been using the Logitech G915 (Clicky switches) for 2 years now. It's an awesome keyboard. No latency, really comfortable to type on and is great for gaming. The only thing I would remove from it are those god awful, pointless G Keys on the left side. I am interested in going with the full size Razer Deathstalker V2 simply because it is very similar to the G915 without those horrible G Keys. However, I won't be buying one until the Purple Clicky switces version comes out. I find with Linear keyboards that the keys accidentally actuate when all you do is rest your fingers on top of them (not actually pressing the keys down) so Linear is too sensitive IMO.

Heavily recommend checking out the air75 for your low profile needs.

Is there a new version of the 915 coming out soon?

What about red dragon Low profile MX keys? TKL and full size only costed me 30US was on sale from 59

Can you wakeup Razer Deathstalker V2 Pro keyboard by rolling volume knob when keyboard is in inactive state (after 15 minutes of inactivity)?

Is wrist comfort good with these boards since there is no wrist rest?

Anyone know if the quick access buttons only work for bluetooth or they work for hyperspeed as well?

Wait the 915 only comes in Tactile on the full sized? I have a 915 TKL in tactile so did they discontinue it or something?

I like to keep an eye on the TKL space from time to time to see how things are moving along. Just wish a brand would do what Corsair did with the K70 TKL (less weird tournament stuff) but well good, make it decently competitive with the custom keyboard space, been tempted to do a custom TKL but the thing stopping me I dont like using function layers (just a hassle IMO), just allow me to have dedicated media keys in a nice TKL with decent RGB lighting!

How was the wireless connectivity? I’ve heard razer keyboards have connectivity issues. My razer mouse has to pretty much have line of sight to stay reliably connected.

I m surprised to not see you guys review the Wooting 60HE?

My G915 TKL is black and has tactile switches, so the white one shouldn't be the only one that has them. Maybe only select stores might sell it as an option? I got mine from Best Buy here in the US. But anyway, I've been happy with my G915 TKL so far. It's worked as a nice keyboard for both gaming and work (the latter especially since I go to the office twice a month now). Now if Logitech did a refresh on the G915 series, that would be cool. But I doubt they have plans for that any time soon.

Interesting, I have 915TKL in grey with Tactile switches. Maybe it's an NA thing that you don't have this option?

Any updates on razer’s key cap quality? Is it same BS as the g915 key caps?

Finally a challenger in this niche market ! I’ve been loving my 915 TKL for two years now but for the price I don’t find it perfect. Maybe they’ll make a v2 that’s closer to perfection

I bought Redragon k618 70$ variant to not pay 250$, would be nice to know how it compares with those expensive keyboards

3:15 Top notch editing right there! well done :D

Have you looked at the Keychron K5 as a budget competitor in this space? The K1 was arguably the pioneer after all.

The Razer charging issue has been patched. I keep mine plugged into the razer Book wall charger to charge and I can still use it. I have the Deathstalker V2 Pro TKL and I love it. It is the perfect middle between a MX Mechanical Mini from logitech and razer gaming keyboard.

If not this keyboard for a full size keyboard, then which one?

Give us your thoughts on the wooting 60HE already 😫

I had the Corsair K70 MK2 Low Profile which had a bad layout. Then I bought the Sharkoon PureWriter which is awesome, but not wireless. Then I switched to the 915TKL and was astonished, but still feel like there could be more, e.g. the loose wobbling keycaps were a little disappointing, but great keyboard nevertheless. Now I also have the DS V2 Pro and it feels like I have finished the search... BUT still the special characters (DE layout) are not backlighted which is a pain to find on the market... Sharkoon does it, why not Razer and Logitech? Short: DS V2 Pro wins in my opinion!

Glad I stumbled across this video as I've been looking at the TKL version of my 915 recently for more mouse space and converting all my gear to all white, but then I saw the Razer at Best Buy and was like damn this looks like a cleaner version of my 915 so I might have to switch, but still stuck with the G502 X Plus in white I've been eyeing

As I've been using a chiclet style keyboard since forever, when I went for a keyboard upgrade there wasn't much option in the market fulfilling my criteria of wireless+low-profile+rgb. So when the 915 came out, it was love at first sight. Unfortunately after all these time logitech still don't wanna sell it in India and getting one shipped via 3rd party vendors simple doubles the price tag. But before I go for razor I'd really love to hear something about coolermaster SK651. SInce I'm not very comfortable with the after sells service razer provides only via 3rd party.

9:17 did I understand you correctly? The keyboard is DISABLED while charging? This means once battery dies out you need to take a break from work? Very important that I understand you correctly on this.

Can you test the purple switch I don't like red too linear no sensation

I used the G915 now for more than 2 years (I guess). Had issues with the switches (multiple keypress at one keystroke) and had to repair/ exchange two switches already (unfortunately this is not hotswap and you need to undo like 30 screws to open the housing). I assume that all the others will also follow at a later point of time. I should let you know that I am using the keyboard heavily in Homeoffice (each and every day for 8 to 10 hrs). Maybe this contributes to the issues I have with the switches. The other thing which annoys me heavily is the MicroUSB port. Why is that, Logitech? USB-C is better in each and every way. In a premium keyboard I expect premium hardware. But well... also the switches did not last too long for my heavy/professional usage. After work I also casually play games - I never missed a keystroke and did never notice ANY latency/ input delay. I own a white G915TKL and I am totally happy with it. I do not see any dirt or anything on the keyboard or the aluiminium (also not on the white keycaps, for sure not prestine but I would say it can easily be operated a week or two without cleaning and it will still look good)... I assume this only applies to black surfaces. The keycaps are not DoubleShot, true. Would appreciate if they were DS... but this is not any issue for me. I can confirm the keyboard wakes up instantly and is not missing a single keystroke (important for me and the way I work - when I am in a Teams Meeting, the keyboard will idle and sleep after a few mins but it is there instantly, it simply works!). Also I can confirm on the battery life which I consider to be huge. I dim down RGB more than half, I do not charge every week. I think sometimes not even every two weeks. I do not know how it can use that less power, this is also really great. I am totally in for the low profile wireless story - I hate a messy desk (and even with a wireless keyboard I still have some wires on my desk unfortunately). If the razer was hotswappable and faster when esatblishing connection, I would try. I do not care about the money to be honest - if it makes me go faster at work this is money very well spent. Also I can type like hours on that thing without getting tired (with non low profile I needed some rest for the hands in front of my previous keyboard to have no issues). For me the Logitech works fine. It is strong where I need it to be strong (low profile, perfect battery life, instant wake up) and I can live with the "pains" it puts me through (exchanging a switch as the time goes by, charging on micro USB). It has its flaws and still is expensive... for me it is still the best pick. I would have tried the Razer if you did not comment on the connecting speed (for me those seconds matter/ would annoy me) and if the battery life would have been better. Thanks for this great review. I hope we will see other low profile wireless keyboards in the future.

I recently learned about the K5 SE from Keychron which is roughly half the price compared to both the Deathstalker V2 and G915. Should do a comparison to that.

I noticed that I got the same problem on G915tkl as you do, the F1 key RGB is yellow/orangy then it goes to the correct color after a while. I hate it.

I've tested the G915 and was disappointed. It's really the wiggling of the keys plus the force i needed to trigger the keys. Wanted to test linear as well, but i decided against it since the wobbly keys really bothered me. Was hoping for a wireless Cherry 10.1n but i might give this another go. I am on a wireless Cherry Scissor keaboard right now which is almost perfect for me - but it has ghosting.

Got a full Logitech set with G1915 TKL white tactile and Pro X Superlight mouse (white as well), love them because of quality, responsiveness, battery life is enormous, and the Logitech G Hub software is light and unobstrusive (not like ICUE, gosh that thing is even hard to remove!!) Don't think much good of Razer and their shiny stuff aimed at teens, maybe I'm wrong :)

Can I play from the couch with this razer deatstalker? or is like the G915?

Yeah--what's up with the friggin Micro-USB on the G915--right? Anyways, I've got so many brand-new KBs from both MFGs, that I just wanted to see what you had to say, because sometimes I wonder if the things I'm thinking are "normal" thoughts, or if maybe I am just much more picky than most. But it seems you mention the same things, more-or-less, that I notice or think about myself, at least between these boards (or the similar boards to them). I felt the point you made about the Razer "reconnect" BT lag was probably the single most important con that bugs me! What's up with that?! It's the same issue for their mice; I "click click click", and oh, yeah, "it's just reconnecting, like usual". One thing I do want to say to all those with "rattling issues"; I used to have a problem with mice where my hold would always cause me unintended right-clicks. It was annoying and one day I decided to fix the issue. I chose some of the foam that's easily compressed, not the very dense stuff, but the lightweight foam which is quite soft and usually found inside plastic rifle/pistol cases. I would cut a very small piece, then I would take a tooth pick and pack the foam in between the mouse external button and mouse base body (where the gap exists for the button to move). I found this was a very good way to control the pressure required to achieve the "click". If still getting unintended clicks, I would cut a slightly bigger foam piece, and re-pack it under the mouse button until it was just right for my preferences. I recommend anyone try this if you want to customize your click pressure of mice buttons. Now, with everyone talking about keyboard keys rattling, I wonder if maybe this same sort of mod could be used to dampen KB keys from rattling. It may not be a fun process, but the results one might actually achieve could be well worth the time spent testing it on a few keys to find out. ;) Worst case scenario is that it might require some time to figure out the optimal amount of foam for each key--but I think it should work, and possibly add a level of customization for the user to "tune" their KBs. Give it a try, it could be well worth the time spent "ridding the rattle" if you get it right!

Hi ya'll, I just purchased the TKL version of this keyboard actually. And I wanted to know if anyone who also owns the keyboard has experienced any slight wobble/instability? When I have the keyboard completely flat, I can press the top left or right corner down ever so slightly :/ It just feels that the keyboard doesn't lay entirely flat and even spins a little from the center? Just wanted to know if it's supposed to be like this or not. Cuz if it is, I'm gonna return it. But if it's just mine, then I'll get a replacement cuz I'm really digging the low profile keys. Thanks in advance guys!

What do you mean? I have 915k tkl lightspeed tactile switches. And i love it, got it for £108 on prime day. Have 0 problems with it.

I just got mine this week and it has a very loud buzzing noise when the led lights are on

Praying the next gen G815/G915 switch to the v2 Kailh Low Profile Choc switches, since they now use a MX Cherry keycap stem. I love my G815, but the wobbly keycaps and keycaps themselves are my biggest two gripes after using it for a couple years

i have the G915 tkl clicky i got for around 190CAD including tax so a solid deal. Had it for about a year or so, I am noticing some problems. my s and p key starts to double click occasionally, not really noticeable when gaming but when im typing it's kind of annoying. i also never had a deep clean of the board cause im too scared i'm gonna break the keycaps, so they are a bit too dirty now. also would love to replace the keycaps with something more custom. other than these problems, board has been awesome to go with my almost completely wireless set up.

I bought my logi tkl tactile for 115 usd at discount on prime day, i think with that price it is an amazing keyboard i love everything of it except that the caps do really shine more with use :(

Any Batterylife comparison ?

I've been using the G915 for almost a year and I've had a good time with it. It's responsive, the clicks are satisfying, and the instant connectivity and battery life are phenomenal. I've also used the bluetooth option when connecting to my ipad for quick typing and it's been seamless. I really wish the secondary keys had some kind of illumination though as that has been my biggest issue but aside from that, everything has been great.

i have a razer huntsman v2 pro for all my gaming but recently got into coutch gaming so i picked up the razer deathstalker v2 pro tkl and my god it is so nice having a responsive keyboard to play on the coutch and not be restricted to controller only or having to do some wacky rigging tto use the huntsman.

i got my 915 tkl for an absolute steal so I'm a bit biased, but I absolutely love it. Yes the keycaps are a major letdown but otherwise I have no issues with it, and I absolutely love the feel of the tactile switches. I feel like Razer completely ruined the point of the USB-C port if you can't use the keyboard while plugged in to a charger anyway, meaning you basically need a dedicated keyboard charging cable that stays plugged into your PC. Also, Logitech are bringing dongle-sharing to the G915 starting with the latest version of their software (It's a brand new feature so not surprised you missed it). Nice video overall, thanks

I need that mouse pad. Let me know where to find it.

I bought a refurbed 915 about 1.5 years ago Then a Logitech MX Mechanical Mini a few months ago. This past week I went back to the 915. It’s the highest standard for switches for me. Apparently people are talking about issues with key caps. I haven’t had any, but I will say that it sucks if you’re into customizing keyboards because the switches aren’t the most common.

Can you guys do a review to the DELL wk717?

Pray tell us, how were you able to use the Deathstalker for 2 months when it launched only towards the end of July?

Thank you for bringing light to Low profile KBs! Is so fucking hard to find custom kits as all these boards don't fully fit my needs

Please share the desk pad link.

yo i just bought this keyboard and im super disapointed to ffind out about this bluetooth conectivity issue. i didnt just upgrade to wireless keybord to keep it pluged in all the time. i sure hope they can fix this issue :/

The thing is that I'm justyfing getting a Deathstalker V2 pro in order to be able to have my personal computer connected via cable and on the same desk I'm running my work laptop which I thought I'd be able to connect to via bluetooth if need be. But from what I'm hearing thats a no go with Razer as it disables all wireless connectivity while the cable is plugged in - thats a pretty huge deal breaker for me. Hoping they can fix it with a firmware update or I'll just wait for a G915 refresh. Appreciate the review Dimitri!

My full size 915 is the greatest thing in my entire setup(for now). Love the instantaneous response. Love the battery life. I do have the tactile switches so plus one for the boys haha micro usb is definitely an eye sore. I keep the feet angled up, so I don’t notice much of the discomfort from the flatness. I can’t see me replacing it with anything but an updated version of it.

One important note to non-englisch layout users: The numers have NO SECONDARY OPTION with BACKLIT, it's just lasered on the front and no light shines through. So if your're not perfect touch typing you have to memorize the secondary options. This is super rediculous, and exactly like Logitec did it. Shame.
