I bought the Logitech G413 SE because I wanted a mechanical keyboard focused on performance and durability, without RGB or unnecessary extras—and that’s exactly what it delivers. The build quality is excellent. It feels sturdy, well-built, and designed to last. The keys have a firm, consistent response, making it great for both gaming and long typing sessions. No wobble, no cheap feel. What stands out is the minimalist approach. You plug it in and it just works. No bloated software, no flashy distractions. Gaming performance is responsive, and daily use is comfortable and reliable. Is it packed with features? No—and that’s the point. This keyboard is for users who value precision, durability, and a professional feel. Executive summary: if you want a clean, reliable mechanical keyboard from a trusted brand, the G413 SE is an easy recommendation. Read more
(black G413 TKL SE) No, this isn't a true budget mechanical (there are plenty of $25-$40 no-name mechanicals out there), though it's about as cheap as you'll find a true mechanical from a major brand-name maker. ...however, it's better made, with nicer materials, fit-n-finish and better key feel than the cheaper 'boards I've used and at a price that's still within reach for most gamers (or folks who just prefer the feel of mechanical over membrane). This "SE" version of the G413 was purchased to replace my first gen. G413, which suffered a failed W key after three years of nightly gaming use. The SE has better key action and a more solid key feel than the earlier version, it also has more texture on the key cap surface and touts a new key cap material (this is a welcome upgrade, as I was starting to see the paint wear off around letters on my WASD keys on the OG version). The "board"/deck of the keyboard is similar to the older version, which is to say it's very solid and well made, but the SE forgoes the USB port and dual cable of the original, it also doesn't show up as a recognized device on Logitech's G Hub software anymore. Key feel is a personal preference, so my 5 stars may be your 1 star... I'd call these switches a blending of a Cherry brown and blue switch as far as character: they're sprung stiffer and have a more noticeable break point than a brown switch, but aren't as firm or crisp as a blue and more importantly, are as quiet as a brown switch, overall a very pleasant compromise in my book. If anything, I'd say they have a more solid feel than even genuine Cherry switches and easily best the first gen. Logitech mechanical and Chinese Cherry-esque switches in feel and solidity. I love this keyboard for the fact that it has a solid deck, good cable, great key feel and simple LED backlighting, I feel like it's a much better value than a no-name board for $30 less, or a top of the line name-brand board at up to hundreds of dollars more. Multi-color, per key programmable, flashing, color wave LED "features" add nothing to the gaming (or typing in subdued light) experience for me and I hate paying extra for stuff that I just have to figure out how to disable... Thanks Logitech! As far as TKL 'boards in general go, they're certainly not for everyone... I like TKL better than 60% (though I still miss my num pad) and it does still reclaim a sizeable chunk of real estate on my desk for mouse over-run compared to a full sized keyboard, which in my case is a real advantage in sweaty PvP gaming situations. Having directly accessible F keys and full size style arrow, del/ins, etc. keys is definitely worth the added width for me, but smaller desks or gaming only rigs might still be better with 60%, YMMV.

For $50, you don't get much better than this. The keyboard has a sleek, eye-catching design featuring bright white LED backlighting. The switches are quite nice to type on and give that satisfying feeling when either typing or gaming, and the keycaps also feel quality. As far as noise goes, it's not too loud and I think it sounds nice when typing. This is not the most premium board and you get what you pay for. But for the price you do pay, I think it's a great deal. Read more
This keyboard is on the 'loud' side compared to lots of the cheaper keyboards I've used in the past. Not a big deal in my opinion, I love the solid feeling of the key press's. I was looking for a nice, simple, SOLID keyboard for a professional setting. Kept finding multicolored 'gaming' keyboards so I was very happy to find this unit. It is hefty and solid as I could have hoped for and a great price. I specifically wanted a wired keyboard so this fit the bill on all fronts. We'll see how it holds up long term, but so far it's been a few months and it's doing well. Read more
G413 TKL is a decent mechanical keyboard that doesn't break the bank account. I use this with my gaming laptop station and so far have been very happy with it from gaming to daily office related tasks. Overall design is simple but durable. The key clicks are very responsive and can be "loud" while I'm typing 70+ wpm emails or messages, but not too noticeable during gaming sessions since the tactile response is the goal. The simple backlight is effective and is not controlled by the Logitech G HUB. Just function + F12 cycles a few simple modes. Weight of the keyboard is surprisingly stout, but that is good since it doesn't shift on me during an intense BF6 match. Had to adjust a little going from the G910 full size to a TKL keyboard but do enjoy the smaller footprint. Overall happy with the keyboard with it's simple but effective design and build. Read more
Sturdy enough. Bright backlit, LED keys; nice clicky feel and sound; doesn't take up a lot of space. Read more
