I went with tactile and I was not disappointed. The feel is excellent. I only wish that I could choose the steady color. Blue is cool, but I prefer green and the experts in vision recommend red. Otherwise, buy this!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Prior to purchase I reviewed specifications and a user manual I came across showed the upper numeric row of keys (with shift characters) had 100% backlighting. The numeric keys on the G512 keyboard I received do not light up the shift characters, so using in a dark room without lights on makes it hard to enter shift characters. Talked with Logitech and they do not have replacement keys. If you need to type (or play games) in the dark, purchase a different keyboard with full 100% backlighting.

I have been using this keyboard for about a month. I replaced a G413 which is nearly identical to the G513, but with only white backlit keys. The G513 has black keys with black anodized aluminum top which is nice and better matches the other components, and has a full color backlit with nice controls to selecting them in the app. The reason I replaced the G413 was double typing some lettters, I hope they fixed that for the G513.
The only thing that I do not like is that only the primary key character is backlit and not the secondary characters. Like for the nine key, "9" is lit but the left parenthesis ("(")is not lit. I typically know where the primary keys are and need some guidance for the secondaries. They are printed on the key but with the backlighting on, and in a darkened room the secondary key is harder to locate.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The shift keys don't like up. Try to find a G513 if you can.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I upgraded from the g413 and I gotta say. You guys have really lost the plot. This was SO CLOSE to being my perfect keyboard. No extra keys, no key remover, the cord isn't a nice braided cable anymore, and the shift symbols don't light up? Why? Older models did! Why did you stop selling those for this?
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
