"Pro X 60 Gaming": Logitech G presents new gaming keyboard with form factor 60

Logitech G, the gaming division of Logitech, presented a new handy, wireless gaming keyboard today, the "Pro X 60 Gaming". It is equipped with optical switches and is designed to meet the needs of professional gamers.

Space-saving thanks to multiple key assignments

Logitech G emphasises the balancing act between saving space and having as many available keys as possible. The "Pro X 60 Gaming" is the first keyboard from Logitech G to dispense with the numeric keypad as well as the position and direction keys. At 29 centimetres wide, it takes up significantly less space than 100 per cent keyboards. The keyboard therefore offers more freedom of movement for the mouse and can be positioned more freely on the desk.

However, there are also fewer buttons and therefore theoretically fewer functions available. Logitech G solves this problem with the "Pro X 60 Gaming" with alternative key assignments that can be assigned using the "Keycontrol" tool. One key can thus be assigned up to 15 functions. The G-Shift key can be used to switch through the layers created in this way and access the assigned functions.

Battery life and connection options

The keyboard should work for up to 65 hours on a single charge. However, the configurable RGB lighting will certainly reduce this time. The USB-C to USB-A charging cable supplied is also suitable for permanently connecting the keyboard to the computer. Alternatively, wireless connection via Bluetooth or with a Wi-Fi dongle is also possible.

The keyboard will be available with optical switches in linear or tactile function. Linear switches only require a light tap on a key for the keystroke to be registered. There is no audible click when the key is pressed. Tactile switches, on the other hand, provide audible feedback when the buttons are pressed.

The keyboard will be available in white, black and pink from 16 April. Whether and when you can also order it from our shop is still being clarified.
