Logitech G910 Orion Spark Keyboard Review

Final Thoughts

Price

The Logitech G910 Orion Spark RGB Mechanical Gaming Keyboard is available directly from Logitech for £159.99 in a range of languages. That’s obviously a lot of money, but looking at the prices of similar fully-RGB and mechanical gaming keyboards like this, it’s about on-par with the competition.

Overview

I absolutely loved the TKL version of this keyboard, it’s super lightweight and easily transported, making it a fantastic weapon for LAN gaming events. The G910 is obviously a lot bigger, but if you’re only wanting to keep it at home or in the office for gaming at your own desk, then you’re going to love the big size and the amount of extra features that have been packed into this bigger model.

There’s certainly no shortage of attention-grabbing features on the G910, the obvious one being that it’s mechanical and features those lovely Romer-G switches. Add to that, full per-key RGB lighting, as well as a powerful lighting engine that allows you to apply various effects. A range of macro keys, a powerful macro recording engine, dedicated multimedia keys and 114 key anti-ghosting, perfect for customising the keyboard to suit your needs for both work and gaming. There are two wrist rests to choose from, albeit fairly similar in design, but try both and find which one you like the most; it never hurts to have more choice. Finally, we’ve got the ARX dock, giving you even more features and options to play around with.

This keyboard isn’t cheap, but given the unique design, extensive customisation and excellent performance, it’s still competitive value when compared to the current crop of high-end RGB gaming keyboards, of which you’ll struggle to find many that are “cheap” anyway. As the old saying goes “you get what you pay for.”

This keyboard certainly isn’t for everyone with its fairly extreme styling, but I must admit that I’ve grown to love those funky custom key caps, even if their angular design did feel strange at first. You’ve got to take your gaming fairly serious to make an investment on a keyboard like this, but if you do, you certainly won’t regret it.

“Logitech has created a gaming titan with the G910, it has every feature you could ever need and more, making it a joy to use for work and play. With fast, quiet and RGB-equipped Romer-G switches, Logitech has got a fresh new contender for the very busy mechanical keyboard market”
