Question Keyboards : Logitech vs Corsair

[JediMa]

I'm trying to decide which one to buy, considering that both of them have italian layout (I also type a lot) and they are both in my budget (150 euro). Other better models are not available here in italy or they just have US layout .

- Logitech 513 (tactile)

or

- Corsair K70 RGB MK.2 (cherry MX Blue)

Thank you

Both will be good, but I suggest you think a bit about going with the blue or green switches, they are loud and many people end up selling them once they try them out. If you don't have a good market in your area where you can try/sell/buy stuff you may want to look at some other switches. You may be after that type of switch, just giving you a warning before you get them, especially for typing, if you have anyone else around you. My wife is usually ready to throw things at my head when I type on my keyboard in the bedroom and that is a quieter one than the Blues by quite a bit LOL

Quality between the better brands like Logitech, Corsair, HyperX, etc.. are very equal. When you go up a bit to the higher more dedicated keyboard brands like Leopold, Das, etc.. then you get into some better engineering like more stable switch mountings, space bars with better supports, etc...

So the tactile logitech ones can be better maybe, in any case I'm getting them on Amazon, if they are really bad I can just send the keyboard back

I have not tried those specific key switches on the Logitech keyboard you are getting, my Logitech has their Romer G keys which are similar to the MX Red switches but with a bit smoother feel with lighter resistance. The 513 has something else but I don't think I have used those types.

Really the thing that happens with keyboard, mice and audio is that a person buys something, then something else to try, then another, there is really no end in sight for you once you start down this path LOL I ended up with like 5 or 6 mechanical keyboards I own now, without any intention to start collecting them.

ikr .... 😒

I'm using the one with blue switches and I'm waiting for the other one to compare. Beside the noise, i like a lot the feeling when I press on the keys, I was used to the brown ones so I still have to get used
