Conclusion on G913

Have you ever felt the need for a wireless keyboard due to various drawbacks of using a wired one, such as the inconvenience of cables getting in the way when storing the keyboard or the keyboard being too far away when using a laptop with dual monitors?

Keyboards come in a wide range of products, and it’s hard to know which one to buy.

Wireless keyboards come in various types, including Bluetooth and those with USB receivers.

Even if they light up, it’s better to have ones that don’t, as they can be distracting.

The Logitech G913 keyboard I’m introducing this time supports both a receiver and Bluetooth.

Bluetooth refers to the international standard for short-range wireless communication. It has the advantage of low power consumption and long-lasting use.

The USB wireless receiver can be used by simply plugging it in without the need for pairing, making it compatible with devices that do not support Bluetooth.

It also features high-performance mechanical key switches that provide a fast and accurate typing experience. Additionally, its slim design and RGB backlighting contribute to a beautiful desktop environment. Of course, you can turn off the lighting.

Advantages

Key Switches: You can choose the key switches when purchasing – Clicky, Linear, or Tactile.

I’ve never really cared about the type of keys, so to be honest, any of them are fine for me.

Slim Design: The slim design provides a stylish and beautiful appearance when you place the G913 on your desktop. The keyboard’s form is refined and enhances the attractiveness of your desk environment.

RGB Backlight: The keyboard features RGB backlighting that is customizable. You can adjust colors and effects to match your preferences. I personally use it without lighting.

You can enhance usability by assigning colors only to keys used in games.

Edit with Ghub: Using Logitech’s Ghub software, you can customize the G-keys with your favorite functions. You can launch applications or execute macros and perform various tasks.

Most users tend to assign macros to these G keys for added convenience.

Volume Control: There is a volume adjustment roller on the upper right of the keyboard. You can change the volume intuitively, making it easy to use. Once you try it, you won’t be able to go back.

Wireless: Since it’s a wireless keyboard, there are no cables to get tangled up in. If you turn off the lighting as mentioned below and use it, you only need to take out the charging cable once a year.

Battery Life: The battery life is stated as 30 hours from a full charge with maximum brightness in the catalog. If you use it for about 2 hours a day, it means you can use it for half a month.

I don’t see the keyboard since I touch type. So, I use it without the lights on. In my case, after three years of use, I’ve only charged it about twice. It hardly runs out of battery. The number of times I’ve charged it is not because it ran out but rather on a whim. I wonder when it will actually run out. That’s how long the battery lasts.

Disadvantages

Price Range: While the G913 offers excellent performance as a high-end keyboard, its price range is relatively high. You’ll need to consider it according to your budget.

Volume Control Key: When adjusting the volume during gameplay on Steam, taking a screenshot may occur depending on the game. It can be annoying to have a screenshot taken every time you adjust the volume. If the volume is at an appropriate level, you won’t have to worry about it.

I adjust the volume through an amp connected to my PC.

TKL or Full-Size, Which Is Better?

The one introduced this time is the full-size model. There is almost no difference in performance, but the significant differences are as follows:

Presence of a numeric keypad (tenkey)
Presence of G-keys

It can be thought of as a choice between these two factors.

In the author’s opinion, most people would be fine with a tenkeyless (TKL) model. It makes the keyboard overall smaller and easier to use.

On the other hand, people who use the numeric keypad in games or other activities may prefer a full-size keyboard with a numeric keypad. Choose according to your own style.

I’m the type who thinks bigger is better, so I bought the full-size model with a numeric keypad. I don’t use it much, but it adds to the coolness factor. However, it’s wider, so it can encroach on your mouse pad and feel inconvenient if your desk is small.

Keyboard Maintenance and Care

The key switches are not very durable. Taking them out and washing them multiple times may lead to damage.

We recommend cleaning them with a 100-yen store slime or blowing away debris with an air duster.
