00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:08,400
wireless mouse technology has gotten crazy good lately with even professional

2
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:13,200
gamers cutting the cord in tournament play with thousands tens of thousands or

3
00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:18,080
even hundreds of thousands of dollars on the line but what about mechanical

4
00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:23,439
keyboards both mechanical keyboards and wireless keyboards have existed since

5
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:26,000
before i was born so where the he double

6
00:00:23,439 --> 00:00:32,960
hockey sticks are all the wireless mechanical boards well

7
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:35,760
i'm glad you asked meet the g613

8
00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:40,079
it's tournament grade mechanical wireless and it lasts for months on a

9
00:00:38,559 --> 00:00:43,360
single charge game on

10
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:46,640
and on and on

11
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:50,719
and on and on

12
00:00:48,719 --> 00:00:55,199
and on and on

13
00:00:53,039 --> 00:01:00,320
and on i'm carrying too many phones right now hp's new omen x line up comes

14
00:00:58,239 --> 00:01:04,720
equipped with Intel's seventh generation core i7 processor check it out at the

15
00:01:02,719 --> 00:01:09,280
link in the video description even though it's part of their

16
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:12,920
gamer g series i think the best way to describe the design of logitech's g613

17
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:18,320
is utilitarian it's got pretty much

18
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:23,040
everything you need and very little that you don't it rocks an understated

19
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:26,240
two-tone gray finish with an integrated wrist rest which is nice because you

20
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:29,920
don't want that thing flopping around when you're on the go it's got six

21
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:34,640
programmable macro keys and then a handful of basic media keys

22
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:38,720
being wireless it also has an on off switch and these two buttons that let

23
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:43,200
you switch between the logitech lightspeed receiver unit plugged into

24
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:47,680
your computer and a supported nearby bluetooth device like your phone car

25
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:53,680
tv you get the point bluetooth is a fairly ubiquitous standard and that's a nice

26
00:01:51,119 --> 00:01:59,759
thing to have let's talk typing logitech is using the same omron co-developed

27
00:01:56,240 --> 00:02:02,719
roamer g-switches as the g910 but this

28
00:01:59,759 --> 00:02:07,840
time without the weird-shaped keycaps RGB lighting and the phone dock so it

29
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:12,319
shouldn't be a surprise then that while the high tactile bump is a bit of an

30
00:02:09,759 --> 00:02:16,879
acquired taste typing on it is actually a reasonably pleasant experience no

31
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:22,319
complaints there at all as for gaming logitech claims that thanks to the 2.4

32
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:27,200
gigahertz light speed connection same as on the g703 mouse which you can check

33
00:02:24,239 --> 00:02:32,239
out here the short actuation distance of the romer g switches and the fast

34
00:02:29,920 --> 00:02:37,519
on-board processing that the keyboard is over five times faster than razer's

35
00:02:34,640 --> 00:02:42,000
wired black widow v2 and ed's opinion after gaming on it is it's

36
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:47,599
fine just fine so considering what a regular wired mechanical keyboard cost a

37
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:50,319
few years ago not too bad for 150 bucks

38
00:02:47,599 --> 00:02:56,560
that's progress but that leads us back to our original question how has it

39
00:02:52,959 --> 00:02:58,560
taken until 20 freaking 17 for a major

40
00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:03,120
brand to release a wireless mechanical keyboard okay

41
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:08,000
so maybe it was a demand issue until the last few years mechanical

42
00:03:05,519 --> 00:03:12,879
keyboards were a super niche item and even today most lay persons

43
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:16,640
don't know what they are so who would have been out there looking for a

44
00:03:14,239 --> 00:03:22,400
keyboard that's both mechanical and wireless maybe it was cost the people

45
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:25,840
looking for those features also had to be willing to pay for them and

46
00:03:24,159 --> 00:03:30,720
considering that a cheap wireless keyboard can cost three times as much as

47
00:03:28,159 --> 00:03:34,799
a cheap wired one the fact that a basic mechanical keyboard is still a hundred

48
00:03:32,799 --> 00:03:39,840
bucks makes that potentially pretty scary math no

49
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:43,840
no actually i reject that we don't think it was demand or cost keeping wireless

50
00:03:42,319 --> 00:03:48,720
mechanical keyboards from hitting the mainstream clearly if there are people

51
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:53,360
out there buying 200 individually handcrafted keycaps

52
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:57,280
some of them would be willing to spend a few bucks for a completely wireless desk

53
00:03:55,920 --> 00:04:02,480
setup we think it was more to do with the

54
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:08,080
limited benefit of wireless for keyboards i mean they just sit there

55
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:12,480
and the compromises that were imposed especially by older wireless

56
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:17,759
technologies but hold on a second Linus i mean the 2.4 gigahertz or bluetooth

57
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:23,120
wireless devices i have have basically no noticeable latency aren't those good

58
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:28,479
enough while i see your point basically isn't good enough the people

59
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:33,360
who buy mechanical keyboards are enthusiasts they care about registering

60
00:04:31,280 --> 00:04:38,160
a keystroke a fraction of a second earlier than their opponents and they're

61
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:43,919
not about to sacrifice those key benefits just to cut a cord that's

62
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:48,560
usually out of the way anyway i mean who exactly is it out there that

63
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:52,320
wants to charge a heavy ass keyboard all the time for the privilege of being able

64
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:58,000
to pick it up and go sit on the couch to use it so that's what's changed here

65
00:04:55,199 --> 00:05:02,560
better than wired latency with up to 18 months of life on two regular double a

66
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:07,199
batteries there's even a pair included in the box and while logitech's been

67
00:05:04,639 --> 00:05:12,800
super tight-lipped about exactly how their lightspeed link actually works

68
00:05:09,840 --> 00:05:17,840
what we do know is that it's strong high decibel signal one millisecond report

69
00:05:15,280 --> 00:05:24,560
rate and supremely power efficient design is what enables this products

70
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:26,320
no compromises performance and endurance

71
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:30,400
with that said no compromises is in the eye of the

72
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:35,360
beholder and while the cordless simplicity of the g613

73
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:40,560
will appeal to some consumers many enthusiasts will be unwilling to

74
00:05:37,840 --> 00:05:44,720
give up creature comforts like auxiliary screens pass-through usb ports built-in

75
00:05:43,759 --> 00:05:50,560
audio backlit keys and let's face it that

76
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:52,800
sweet RGB nectar all things that they

77
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:57,600
could have at this price if they were willing to plug in a cord not to mention

78
00:05:55,360 --> 00:06:03,520
that they'd probably get better keycaps too to say i was disappointed that the

79
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:06,240
legend on a 150 dollar keyboard uses

80
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:09,759
cheapo stickers would be a gross understatement but come on Linus they

81
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:14,720
gotta keep the cost of this revolutionary new product down somehow

82
00:06:11,840 --> 00:06:19,520
right right no i mean to be clear by and large i like

83
00:06:17,840 --> 00:06:23,759
the product and i think a lot of people are gonna buy it but logitech

84
00:06:21,840 --> 00:06:28,800
at risk of sounding like a broken record here you guys need to stop screwing up

85
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:35,919
the keycaps on your romer g keyswitch products this thing uses more durable

86
00:06:31,840 --> 00:06:39,280
double shots and it's like 25 bucks
