The GL Tactile version of this keyboard is currently on sale at $239 vs the GL Linear and GL Clicky at $277.90.
Although its not as cheap as the previous $219 for the full size version of this keyboard, some of you might prefer using a TKL like me.

Really a shame since my GL Linear just arrived and I can't get my gift balance refunded, but oh well.

Mod Update 19/1: Available on back-order. Usually dispatched within 1 to 2 months.

    Just got the 219 full size tactile in the mail. Highly recommend.

    I came from the g15 v2

    • Intoxicoligist on 15/01/2022 - 20:53

      G15?? WHAT YEAR IS IT?? (Admittedly I've still got my g15 in the cupboard and used it until a few years ago)

        lmao you too. What am I gonna do with my old G15 v2? Don't need it no more.

        • capslock janitor on 05/02/2022 - 09:53

          is it backorder discounted?

          • danielh on 05/02/2022 - 09:55

            @capslock janitor: Seems to be back to a 2-5 week delivery time frame. That is effectively back order for me.

      • softwhite on 17/01/2022 - 00:14

        Haha, yes i had the v1 for many years. I preferred it because it had volume wheel, instead of buttons… But it drowned one day. Oops.

        I still think the g15 is a great keyboard, but happily upgraded now

    • Baghern on 15/01/2022 - 22:38

      haha Im still using my G15, I think its been 15 years or so

      • softwhite on 17/01/2022 - 00:14

        Great keyboard. Is it v2?

    • danielh on 16/01/2022 - 22:38

      Yeah, still using my G15 as a backup keyboard for my G510. :-)

      FYI, I cannot seem to find a 219 model. Was that a typo?

      • softwhite on 17/01/2022 - 00:15

        I should clarify, it's the g915 model which was $219 in a recent sale.

          Same. I've got 3 corsair K95 XTs, a K70, blackwidow and a g512 laying around that I can't get rid of so I've spent the better part of the past week desoldering, lubing and soldering on other switches (u4ts & t1s), clipping and lubing stabilisers, foam modding, and just rebuilding all these pre-builts to what they should have come out like from factory.

          Coming into custom keyboards is now just decimating my wallet, latest addiction being rebuilding prebuilts. I think I've spent $700 on u4ts and $300 on keycaps in the past month alone and I'm not even going to use these boards lol.

          Someone help

            Damn, you sure you don't have those the wrong way around? U4Ts are 'only' $8.70 per 10 pack locally

            • Evanlet on 16/01/2022 - 17:27

              @grackfight420: I have bought.. what I was hoping to be a lifetime supply but probably won't be.

          • GUYANDSON on 16/01/2022 - 08:33

            @Evanlet: I would have just gone and grabbed one of the many hotswap boards before going to all that effort 😅 or at least install mill-max sockets

              @GUYANDSON: I did! I also bought a Mountain Everest Max that I also threw boba u4ts which I'm using as my main keyboard at the moment. Thankfully I only needed to relube a couple stabilisers and all is well with this one.

              • tdw on 16/01/2022 - 17:32

                @Evanlet: ooh the everest is my current grail [pre-built] kb. what were your thoughts on the stock switches?

                  @tdw: I just snagged the one with reds on PCCG because it was the cheapest one at the time. I replaced them as soon as I opened the box so I couldn't tell you how it was with the standard switches… :(

      Same, lockdown brought me down this rabbit hole.

      I used to think spending over $200 for a keyboard was insane. Now I can’t even get just the keycaps for $200

  • j1nx on 15/01/2022 - 22:37

    I have this exact keyboard, and I LOVE it. I've never been a fan of the number pad, the tactile feel of the keys is just right without being too noisy. Great build quality. Highly recommend.

    Genuine question from a battler. What makes this keyboard worth 5 slabs of VB?

    • Alzori on 16/01/2022 - 09:23

      Ten Keys Less - Means its missing the Num Pad

  • loropy9 on 16/01/2022 - 00:13
    +1

    It's good that the TKL comes without the useless and utterly annoyingly positioned macro keys. The full size version has these keys along the left side of the board.

  • HolyFosh on 16/01/2022 - 02:13

    I tried this out at a store and didn't like the feel.

    The keys felt very loose.

    Although it was missing a bunch of keys, so I'm not sure if the board was just damaged.

    Unfortunately given it's a pretty expensive item it's hard to find a store with multiple setup. I really wanted to compare the tactile and linear switches.

    Since if I don't like it it's a pretty hefty chunk of change.

    • karu on 16/01/2022 - 03:08

      I have the same predicament. Moved from Cherry Reds to the GL Linear thinking they'd be somewhat similar. The Linear switches offer no feedback at all, so I think the Tactile would be a better option.

      Unfortunately I don't want to return it as I used $100 Amazon credit which cannot be refunded, meaning that I'd have to pay an extra $60 if I wanted to exchange it for the Tactile.

      • HolyFosh on 16/01/2022 - 10:06

        Oh that's good to know. When I was trying them out I really liked the feel of a Cherry Red keyboard there.

        So I thought I might like the linear version of this instead. But maybe not going by what you said.

        It's a shame, my local JB doesn't have display keyboards, so I need to travel further to try any out.

      • j1nx on 16/01/2022 - 17:29

        Can confirm - I have tried both, and yes, linear feels very loose. The tactile switches are much better. Closer to a Cherry Brown.

  • p3t0r on 16/01/2022 - 06:03

    My ($189) GL linear version from PLE arrives this week! I hope the feedback is similar to my cherry Reds

  • tension on 16/01/2022 - 07:34

    I've got the 2 of white version (one for home and one for work) of this TKLG915. I would highly recommend it for the all round versatility.

    Hard to find a TKL with good multimedia/volume keys & the battery life is fantastic. With no RGB I get a year out of a single charge.

  • CustardShot on 16/01/2022 - 09:37

    This claims to have 40 hours battery life. Is that accurate from anyone here having experienced using it?

    I'm contemplating moving to this from the ducky sf

    • Menzoberranzan on 16/01/2022 - 16:13

      It lasts for a very respectable time. I have been using mine on battery and swapping between home and laptop without charge worries. I have only had to charge it once in the last 3 weeks and even then it still had 20% left

    • j1nx on 16/01/2022 - 17:31

      Yep. I have the RGB on the second lowest setting and only charge it about once a week, probably last a little over a week (I work from home all week and game on it - probably about 60 hours of use). The UI when I’ve charged it on G Hub says about 100 hours. It helps to make the RGB timeout quickly, I have mine set to the lowest which from memory is one minute.

  • OzBerghainer on 16/01/2022 - 10:01

    This. Or a new gaming headset. Decisions. (I already have both)

  • Hugh G Rection on 16/01/2022 - 10:26

    at this price range i would spend a little more and get a metal custom mechanical keyboard.

    but beware of the deep dive into the black hole.

  • slowmo on 16/01/2022 - 10:31

    thanks ,grabbing this. already have 2 of the full sized tactile, this would be a good portable. i was using the microsoft surface keyboard, but the keys were too soft.

  • HolyFosh on 16/01/2022 - 10:34

    How's the key wobble?

    Lots of reviews mention it and the keys feeling cheap which makes me a bit nervous about the durability for something so expensive.

  • newonelei on 16/01/2022 - 10:44

    Is this refundable for working by tax claim?

    • karu on 16/01/2022 - 10:46

      Should be as it's <$300, so you can immediately deduct the full amount.

  • truongtran on 16/01/2022 - 12:53

    I got this one from one of the sale around June last year and I'm so much in love with it. If you want a mechanical keyboard with Macro keys, this is the best choice.

    • HolyFosh on 16/01/2022 - 13:54

      I don't think the TKL has macro keys

      • truongtran on 16/01/2022 - 17:05

        oops, didn't read the title correctly. You were right, the one I bought was the full size keyboard.

        • HolyFosh on 16/01/2022 - 18:27

          How do you find the macro keys and the size? I'm not sure if I'd use the extra keys though or if the extra space for them would throw me off.

          I'm trying to decide between the full size or TKL.

    Bad experience with Logitech G boards; owned the G810 and the G613, both chatter like crazy.

    Logitech's so called 'tactiles' feel linear in comparison to other switches.

    Personally would avoid all mech keyboards from gaming brands, eg. Razer, Corsair, Logitech - build a custom instead. You can get a decent board with decent switches with decent stabs and lube for the same price as this.

    • Woody982 on 18/01/2022 - 15:42

      Ok, but what about the 90% of people who can't be stuffed "building" a keyboard?

      Terrible advice. Also, my K95 XT Platinum feels great.

      • CrispyChrispy on 18/01/2022 - 15:52
        -2

        If you think Cherry Blues, Browns or Clears feel good (whichever one you have), you really haven't tried any other switches from other brands, have you?

        • Woody982 on 19/01/2022 - 08:28

          As in the switches themselves? No, only the razer proprietary switches.

          As stated 90% of people can't be stuffed "building" a custom KB. Me included…

    Ended up buying this with an estimated delivery date of 11 Feb 2022 to 1 Mar 2022. Been using my G510 for my main PC and the G15 for the work one but decided the flexibility to switch between PCs with the same keyboard was too enticing. My preference would have been to get a g915 full size but when I thought about it, I never really used the number pad and if I ever go back to games like WoW, I'll reuse my G510 (as I used most of the 18 macro buttons).
    Assuming that Amazon will send me an invoice for just $239 (as it was 30% reduced from $3xx), I'll just claim the full amount in tax, otherwise depreciate it over 2 years.

  • danielh on 01/02/2022 - 16:55

    FYI not on back order anymore. I just got my shipping notice and the Amazon website shows it as available. I do note that it says 5 in stock but there is apparently more on the way.

    • danielh on 01/02/2022 - 19:34

      Hmmmm, cannot seem to do an edit but there are now only 3 in stock now for those who want one still.

  • OzBerghainer on 01/02/2022 - 19:35

    Back in stock. Picked one up.
