Logitech G915 X LIGHTSPEED TKL Black – Low-Profile GL Tactile, KEYCONTROL, Tri-Mode Wireless, LIGHTSYNC RGB, US INT’L

The G915 X LIGHTSPEED TKL is Logitech G’s second-generation low-profile tenkeyless keyboard: 22.6 mm tall, with a brushed aluminium top plate, double-shot PBT keycaps and per-key RGB. This unit is the Black version fitted with GL Tactile switches and a US INT’L layout. It connects by 2.4 GHz LIGHTSPEED, Bluetooth or a USB cable, and Logitech rates the battery at up to 42 hours with lighting at full brightness.

G915 X LIGHTSPEED TKL Switches: Low-Profile GL Tactile

The switches are Logitech’s low-profile GL mechanical switches, and this keyboard carries the Tactile type: a bump you feel at the actuation point without the click sound of the Clicky version. Logitech lists an actuation distance of 1.3 mm (±0.3 mm), total travel of 3.2 mm (±0.25 mm) and a Tactile actuation force of 45 gf (±10 gf).

Logitech’s launch announcement explains what changed from the first G915: a redesigned switch with a POM cross-style stem in place of the older hook-style stem, and an actuation point moved to 1.3 mm. The earlier model is still sold separately as the Logitech G915 TKL.

Build: PBT Keycaps and Aluminium at 22.6 mm

The keycaps are double-shot, shine-through PBT, an upgrade from the ABS caps of the original G915, and PBT resists the shine that fingers polish onto ABS over months of use. The top plate is brushed aluminium alloy, which Logitech made 1.5 mm thick on the X series. At 22.6 mm tall, the G915 X LIGHTSPEED TKL sits low enough that many people type without a wrist rest.

Logitech lists the keyboard at 368 x 150 x 22.6 mm and 860 g, heavy enough to stay put on the desk. The tenkeyless layout drops the number pad, leaving more room for the mouse, which low-sensitivity FPS players appreciate.

KEYCONTROL: Up to 15 Functions per Key

KEYCONTROL, configured in Logitech G HUB, lets you assign up to 15 functions to each key by combining layers and modifiers, and Logitech describes any key becoming a macro that combines several commands in one press. In practice that means game binds, media shortcuts and app actions can live on the main block without a full-size keyboard. Soft-touch media keys and a roller bar handle volume and playback directly.

Three Connections on the G915 X LIGHTSPEED TKL

Logitech calls it tri-mode: 2.4 GHz LIGHTSPEED wireless through the USB receiver for gaming, Bluetooth for a laptop or tablet, and wired USB with the included USB-A to USB-C cable, 1.8 m long. Logitech’s specification lists Bluetooth 5.0 and a maximum report rate of 1 ms, that is 1,000 Hz.

Switching between a gaming PC on LIGHTSPEED and a work laptop on Bluetooth is the everyday strength of the G915 X LIGHTSPEED TKL, since one keyboard covers both desks.

Battery Life, With Logitech’s Conditions

Logitech gives two figures for the TKL model: up to 42 hours with lighting at 100 percent brightness, and up to 1,000 hours with lighting off. Most users sit somewhere between, depending on brightness and effects. The battery is not user-replaceable, and the keyboard charges and works over the USB-C cable. Logitech lists an operating range of 0 °C to 40 °C.

The US INT’L Layout

This unit uses the US International layout, marked on the box. It is the familiar US key arrangement, with Latin legends only and no Arabic characters printed on the keys. Arabic typing works through the operating system’s keyboard settings, but the letters are not shown on the caps.

Who This Is Not For

Anyone who wants Arabic legends on the keys, since this G915 X LIGHTSPEED TKL is US INT’L. Accountants and spreadsheet users who need a number pad should look at the full-size G915 X. Players chasing 8,000 Hz polling will not get it here; Logitech lists 1 ms. If you prefer a smooth or clicky switch, this unit is Tactile. And typists who like tall, deep-travel keys may find 3.2 mm of travel shallow.
