The Logitech G715 has a TenKeyLess design that frees up extra space on your desk for mouse movements while gaming. If you’re interested in a similar wireless gaming keyboard with a TenKeyLess design that’s available in a wider range of colorways, check out the Logitech G PRO X TKL.
Keycap Material
PBT
The Logitech G715 has a great build quality. Its plastic chassis is very solid and exhibits minimal flex, and the metal top plate has no flex. The keycaps are made of double-shot PBT plastic, and the legends are shine-through to allow the RGB lighting to be visible. Underneath the board, the six rubber feet do a good job of keeping the board in place, and there’s a storage compartment for its USB receiver. Unfortunately, some of the modifier keys lack stabilizers altogether and wobble very noticeable during use.
This keyboard also has a plastic modular plate that covers the top plate. Logitech offers this top plate in three different colors for some personalization. It attaches using a series of magnets, so it’s easy to remove and replace, but it does feel a bit flimsy.

The Logitech G715 has two incline settings and includes a wrist rest. The cloud-shaped wrist rest has a fake leather coating, so it adds a nice grip and feels pretty plushy. It doesn’t attach directly to the board, so you can place it wherever feels the most comfortable.

Typing Experience
Key Spacing
19.0 mm (0.748″)
The Logitech G715 offers a great overall typing experience. The PBT keycaps feel really nice to type on, and the larger modifier keys, like the spacebar and enter, feel very stable. The smaller modifier keys, like ALT, TAB, and CTRL, for example, lack stabilizers entirely, so they have some very noticeable wobble and rattle a bit when pressed. The keys are well-spaced, and thanks to the included wrist rest, you’re well-supported while you type, meaning you won’t feel wrist fatigue. You also won’t feel finger fatigue as the switches are pretty light to press, and the tactile bump doesn’t take too much force to get over. However, the switches do feel a bit scratchy, so if you want a smoother typing experience, you can add a bit of lube.

The Logitech G715 with the GX Brown Tactile switches is fairly quiet to type on. Since the modifier keys lack stabilizers, there’s a bit of extra rattle during use, but it isn’t too distracting.

The Logitech G715 uses Logitech G HUB software for customization. You can remap keys, program macros to the F1-F12 keys, and assign a G-Shift button to enable another layer of programming. There’s also a feature to set the “Game Mode” to disable keys other than the Windows key, and you can fully customize the RGB lighting. These customized settings can be saved to the keyboard’s onboard memory and accessed on systems that don’t have the G HUB software installed.
There weren’t any software issues during testing, but many users online have reported various problems trying to use the Logitech G HUB software, including but not limited to startup issues, freezing, and connection issues with some devices. If you’d like to share your experience using Logitech G HUB with this keyboard, feel free to leave a comment in the discussions.
