Unlike so many esports-fueled keyboards, the Logitech G G512 X doesn’t force Hall effect switches down your throat. Logitech’s latest controls for mechanical-minded typists include nine analog switches housed on the keyboard itself. It’s one of the only non-DIY keyboards that makes it so easy to swap with (most) of the keyboards’ mechanical switches at a moment’s notice.
Logitech’s new keyboard is a tasting menu of “pro”-level controls. If you’re curious what analog keyboard switches feel like, you don’t have to spend a ton of money to be stuck with a keyboard that’s not the right fit. Logitech’s combination of handy software and intelligent design choices makes it so damn easy to test which keys and switches work for you. The keyboard’s feet act as the keycap and switch remover. Every other component is housed on-device. With the press of a special button, the keyboard recognizes which switch is which. If anything, Logitech deserves kudos for engineering such a seamless experience.

Logitech's latest keyboard is excessively customizable if you only ever wanted analog switches in some of your most-used keys.
