![]() I personally think that for typing beyond a certain speed, the browns are better than blues, because the clicks on blues get too loud when they are pressed rapidly, and the lower actuation force of browns also makes your hand movements smoother. If you’re coming from a blue switch like me, you’ll find it to be almost too easy to press, while coming from a membrane keyboard will be a very natural transition as I find the 45 grams of actuation force to be close to a membrane keyboard. THE BROWN SWITCHīrown has to be my favourite switch type, as it combines the tactile nature of Blue switches, and silence of the linear ones. The keyboard I have with me has Cherry MX Brown switches, but it also comes in Red switches, which you can go for if you prefer to not have the almost difficult to feel tactile bump in Cherry MX Browns. So I think Logitech has done a great job in the build department, and have kept everything minimal but functional, and the combination of all that gives it a very professional look. But It’s very useful when you are playing a game or watching a movie and can’t control the volume using mouse, or have your speakers out of reach. The volume adjustment wheel in really wide, but has very low resistance, and doesn’t have any tactile feedback. Logitech has used a ‘gamery’ font on this, which is one of the very few things on this keyboard that would indicate that it is intended for gaming. But they do their job, and Logitech didn’t do anything funny with them. ![]() The media keys aren’t mechanical, and personally for me, their feel, placement, and shape feel a little inconsistent for this keyboard’s aesthetics. The keycaps are double injection shot ABS keys, and have a balanced shape, they also feel very smooth, almost too smooth sometimes, but they feel really great to type on. The cable is braided and feels very rugged. The two feet at bottom can be adjusted to 4 or 8 degrees, which also have rubber strips in them for better grip. ![]() The texture at bottom is a very nice touch, and gives this keyboard a premium feel, and the large rubber feet secure it very well on a table. ![]() The top has a nice matte texture, but the sides are glossy, which is a bit odd, but it looks good as long as it does not have your fingerprints all over it. It is much more heavier than it looks like, which is probably due to a metal plate in the frame. So the build of this keyboard is very premium. This keyboard is actually almost identical to the G810 Orion Keyboard by Logitech, except that it doesn’t have the RGB back-lighting, and has Cherry MX Switches instead of the Romer G ones made by Logitech, which is what makes this keyboard so compelling in the market, because you are getting ‘The mechanical’ switch, Cherry MX in Brown or Red flavours, at a cheaper price point than the G810, with the tasteful white LEDs, which many people prefer over RGB ones. ![]() The Logitech G610 Orion Gaming Keyboard is a departure from the conventional ‘Gaming Keyboard’ design, and what we have instead is a very minimalistic and professional look, which will work well both with a gaming setup, and at the office. ![]()
