Logitech Launches G515 Rapid TKL, a $170 Low-Profile Hall-Effect Gaming Keyboard

Premium construction with adjustable actuation targets speed-focused play at a higher price than key rivals.

Overview

  • The G515 Rapid TKL is now available for $170 with Hall‑effect analog switches offering per‑key actuation from 0.1 mm to 2.5 mm.
  • Rapid Trigger, key priority, and multipoint actuation target competitive responsiveness, though some features may run afoul of rules in games like Counter-Strike 2.
  • The low-profile tenkeyless board stands 22 mm tall and features a stainless steel top plate with oil‑resistant double‑shot PBT keycaps.
  • Pre‑lubed switches and shortened travel emphasize speed, with reviewers noting a potential learning curve versus full‑height mechanical boards.
  • Connectivity is wired only, and pricing exceeds some rivals such as NuPhy’s Air60 HE, which is cited as up to $50 cheaper at MSRP.
