When unpacking please immediately the elegant design and the excellent materials used. Unlike conventional keyboards, the material feels not reasonable to plastic, but gummed how it might know from the dashboard of his car. The included wrist rest is due to the material therefore also very pleasant and really make work easier, whether playing or writing in Word. The installation is very fast out of hand. In a few seconds the keyboard is detected automatically under Windows XP and the installation of the driver package from the CD is a breeze. Very popular games recognizes the G15 immediately and supports also the same.
The most striking eye-catcher of this keyboard is probably definitely the beleutete additional display. This is the same in many respects as a support. So you can display the time, get notifications of CPU and RAM utilization, and of course also provides title and length of played music. Just below the display there is a practical way, a dial with which you can change the volume continuously. An extremely practical and elegantly conceived function. Of course keys for fast forward and rewind, for silence, for skipping, as well as play and stop.
Another special feature of the keyboard is the illumination of the buttons. Especially for players that's interesting. Of course, the lighting can also be switched off and adjusted in two stages. For players of course are very interesting, the G-keys on the left half of the keyboard. Thus (keyboard shortcuts so) can easily be determined beforehand macros. This feature is not to be underestimated, especially with complex games like strategy games or RPGs. They also offer on the keyboard top two USB slots in order for example to connect a headset. A useful feature that is unfortunately not entirely successful because very low-power devices should be operated with it. Powered devices, however, simply do not work. A nice feature so that could be revised but again better.
The G15 is very suitable just for players, but also quite comfortable for users accustomed. The keystroke is slightly loose, but without too easy to act. The additional features such as the backlit keys, the information on the screen or the media features are well thought out and coherent. Solely the two USB ports are were not optimally designed. Given the features and the high quality of workmanship and materials keyboard the price performance ratio is reasonable. The G15 is a premium keyboard for users with high demands on their input device.
