It's missing a few features that most other mechanical gaming keyboards on the market but it's great for the price. It's nice to type on and the red and black makes for a nice aesthetic.

I love the minimal sizing, clean lines, and solid base. The keys are solid and the USB pass though is a nice addition.

The $79.99 Logitech G413 SE is a keyboard designed for those looking for a gaming-grade (but budget-priced) mechanical keyboard, complete with tactile switches, PBT keycaps, and an attractive design with white LED key backlighting. It’s a good-looking board that delivers the basics of a full-size keyboard at a decent price. It should appease gamers looking for a simple, entry-level board, but more discerning gamers will be turned off by how many useful features were trimmed to craft the G413 SE, especially compared with the board’s older sibling, the Logitech G413 Carbon.The Design: Keeping It G-Minimal Weighing in at just 1.4 pounds, the Logitech G413 SE is a lightweight full-size model, thanks to its aluminum alloy key deck, but it still remains surprisingly sturdy. It weighs less than other full-size boards, like the XPG Mage, and it wastes no space, either, measuring at 1.4 by 17.1 by 5 inches (HWD). In design, it’s almost identical to its predecessor, with the same striking b...

While the Logitech G413 SE is a workable, minimalist gaming keyboard, this iteration fails to advance on its predecessor in almost every way—most notably, with its subpar-feeling key switches.

Clean, edgy look for a basic keyboard; Compact and lightweight; Heat- and wear-resistant PBT keycaps

Mechanical, but mushy, key switches; No USB passthrough; No support for Logitech's G Hub app; No customizable macros or lighting

For something we spend hours and hours working with, the keyboard spent a long time as strictly a tool with little mind to either mechanics or aesthetics. We had ergonomic and regular and black and beige. For a long time, even getting a mechanical keyboard meant digging up an old IBM keyboard.

For the last few months I've been looking for a new keyboard that is both great for gaming and comfortable to type on throughout the day. The problem I face is that when it comes to keyboards I've become something of a snob in recent years and nothing can impress me unless it has a loud "click...

Sturdy chassis; Good switches; PBT keycaps are a nice addition;

No real software integration; Single-colour backlighting may not be enough for some; 6-key rollover feels stingy;

The Logitech G413 Carbon ($89.99) is a simpler take on the gaming keyboard , focusing on key feel and performance instead of fancy lighting schemes and extra function buttons, and as such, is priced lower than top-end competitors.

Nice price; Mechanical switches; Sturdy construction; USB 2.0 port pass-through; Programmable function keys

Can't customize keyboard backlighting; No wrist rest; Takes up two USB ports on a PC

If you want a mechanical keyboard from a major manufacturer, you usually have to open your wallet wide and dig deep. That's not the case with the Logitech G413, which marries the company's mechanical keyboard expertise to an agreeable, $90 price tag.

Inexpensive; Comfortable key switches; Slick design; Good performance

No discrete media keys; Limited lighting options

Full sized but slim keyboard with top keys that are also used for media. Has Logitech's top quality Romer-G keys which are extremely durable and fast. They sit somewhere between Cherry MX Red and Blue switches in terms of tactileness so are OK for typing and quiet enough for gaming.

The keyboard is great for the price of it. Pros: In-expensive Durable Not bulky Good switches Cons: Only red lighting on keys Keyboard doesn't have light for Num Lock. The keyboard is interesting, it's cheap but it will definitely last a long time.
