Multimedia controls.
Extra LCD functions can be programmed.
Strong macro programming capability.
Broader support for homebrew LCD apps.
More responsive-feeling keys.
Orange LED comes through better in the dark.
Logitech got it right this time.
Refined design takes up less space than the original but keeps most of the same features.

Cons

Price.
Still no USB 2.0 ports.
Lack of new options for LCD.
LCD is still of questionable value.
Some buttons appear to do nothing.
Backlighting could be better.
6 G-keys vs. 18 on original G15.
No volume knob.
POP3 applet has some issues.
Should have had a different model number to better distinguish it from original G15 keyboard.

Logitech's revised version of its already distinctive G15 gaming keyboard adds polish and trims some of the fat. Throw in the now-mature user community that churns out lots of homebrew apps for the built-in LCD screen, and we'd recommend this...

I was split on how to evaluate the new G15. On the one hand, it is a very capable gaming keyboard, with many features that other keyboards, save the original G15, just dont have. The extra keys, customizability and the excellent LCD make for a...
