This is exactly the kind of keyboard I was looking for. Sturdy, customizable backlighting, mechanical, clicky.
The body of the keyboard is aluminum and it has a thin profile. The keys are low profile and sit up above the plane of the keyboard which is probably helpful when trying to clean out debris (food) from under the keys.
It also has programmable keys that you can use to record macros for games and this is tied to the Logitech G Hub app. I personally probably won't use this feature, but if it's something you are used to from other keyboards then you'll be right at home with this feature. In fact, this keyboard probably has a lot of features I won't use, but just having the quality construction is the selling point for me.
Now a small number of people won't be completely happy with this keyboard if they also hoped to see the secondary symbols on the keys also backlit. If you've been around keyboards a long time you likely wouldn't need this anyway, but there are other keyboards that do have secondary symbols backlit. Each key can be changed do a different color or you can use global color schemes and even have animated effects like rolling color changes throughout each key zone. I'm happy just to have a good backlit keyboard that I can easily change the brightness on so that it's not too distracting when I'm watch video content.
Again, great keyboard, loaded with features, really happy with my purchase.

Great key board for everything. I use it to game and my wife uses it for work. The RGB looks great, the lower profile keys are super smooth. The build quality is excellent, you can feel how well made it is. If your looking for an upgrade this is it!I have the silver and it looks really nice.

For the time that I been using it has been nothing but praises. The feel and quality of the switches/keys are satisfying.
The volume nob is a tube that slide up and down kinda weird to look at but easy to change your volume.
The app to switch led lights is easy to set up, most of it just preferences. The G-keys allow you set up keybinds (mute on discord, open apps, etc…).

By far the best keyboard I’ve ever had. The response time is amazing and it’s extremely easy to type on. Not only that but the various modes for the keyboard lighting give you so much control and options. Its very decently priced for what it offers and I would highly recommend!!

The keyboard is absolutely wonderful. There’s a couple of pros most notably being the; tactility of the keys, feeling as well as positioning of the volume wheel, adjust height of the keyboard, response time, look and the RGB lights. There is however one con which is the instant drop off from the back end of the keyboard (the part right behind the space bar). It’s uncomfortable during extended periods of usage since it is a flat edge however I’m pretty sure there’s a couple rounded edge attachments that you can buy to fix this. Otherwise I wouldn’t hesitate to purchase this keyboard, it’s excellent!

This is definitely a buy, especially when its on sale!!!!
I previously had the Razer Huntsman Mini 60%. I was set on getting ONLY a 60% keyboard until i tried the G815 at Best Buy on display. I am willing to sacrifice some space on my desk for this keyboard because of how great it is! Logitech's clicky option is far more satisfying to use compared to Razer and other brands iv tried. This is by far the best keyboard i have tried. Its super responsive and really clicky, while not being obnoxiously loud.
What sold me on this keyboard were the low profile keys. Its very clicky with a very short throw, making it easier to type on. The RGB lights are also brighter than Razer's.

Awsome keyboard with a great clicky sound, feel, and RGB. There is a downside in some slight key wobble. Keep in mind however that Logitech's proprietary software, G hub, is pretty buggy and may give you some issues ESPECIALLY if you delete it and reinstall it. Otherwise, the board itself is amazing.

I bought this keyboard for my office and it has a perfect clicky sound but without disturbing my coworkers! The keys are super fast and low. You just THOUGHT you were a fast typist. This keyboard will challenge you. It is a beautiful heavy keyboard and the lighting functions are endless. Pick your lighting from high to low, one color to many colors. Choose which part of your keyboard you want for your colors. Mine is set at a beautiful blue hue without any flashing or movements. I cannot recommend this keyboard enough. Just get it. You will be happy you did.

Keyboard is a little pricy but worth every penny. I’m glad I chose to spend the extra money because I couldn’t be happier. The build quality and switches are second to none. It’s extremely responsive and there is no latency or delay with each key stroke. I’ve been using this keyboard everyday for about a month now and this is hands down, the best keyboard I’ve ever used. The clicky keys are awesome and I love the tactile feedback. The optional G HUB software is easy to use and loaded with custom RGB profiles. You can also download other custom profiles that other users created and uploaded. I use this keyboard for gaming but its also perfect for standard typing if you do a little bit of both.

Being so tired of traditional keyboards, I decided to give a mechanical keyboard a try. Never having bought one before, I wasn't sure where to start. Went to Best Buy and there were a small number of them to try out. The G815 was one of them. I knew right away this was the one. I love the low profile, slightly clicky key sound. Not obnoxiously loud. Notice less mistakes. I'm not a gamer. Just use it for routine home use and work from home use. Keyboard feels good, love the lighting. Logitech's hub isn't that great though. The low profile of the keyboard cuts down on wrist fatigue. Nice weight to it. It won't slide around like a light weight plastic keyboard. Really thinking about getting another for in office use.

The Logitech G815 is a remarkable feat in the realm of gaming keyboards, ingeniously blending a sleek, ultra-thin profile with a robust and satisfying tactile experience. The low-profile GL Tactile switches are a true highlight, offering a delightful clickiness that responds to every keystroke with precision and a discernible actuation point that will appease both gamers and typists alike. Its slender design is not only aesthetically pleasing but also contributes to a more comfortable, ergonomic typing position, enhancing long gaming sessions or productivity tasks. With the G815, Logitech has not compromised on performance or design, making it a top-tier choice for enthusiasts craving a minimalist aesthetic without sacrificing the tactile feedback of traditional mechanical switches. I choose this over the 915 for reliability reasons but I can imagine alot of this will apply to that keyboard as well.

I decided to get this keyboard shortly after seeing it and trying it out at my local store. I loved the look and the way the keys felt to press.
This thing feels great to type on. I love that it has the slim, sleek look while still retaining the mechanical feel. I opted for the wired version to save a few bucks and not having to keep it charged. I usually don’t move my keyboard around anyway. The RGB settings for this keyboard seem nearly limitless, although the App required can be a little finicky and needs updates often. I also really like the media controls and volume wheel on the top right.
I highly recommend this keyboard!

Love the quality build and the low profile of the keys. Yet they still click and have a tactile responsiveness that makes productivity fairly high.
The downloadable color schemes and customizable G keys are a life saver for work productivity. I don't use it for gaming so I can't comment about that.
I also love that I can connect my wireless mouse dongle directly into the USB passthrough input so I don't use up an input in my PC.

Slim, functional, responsive as needed for gaming.
The keys feel delicate, especially coming from a G910 orion keyboard. The aluminum frame feels sturdy, but again, the keys feel delicate, as if they would pop off esily during use.
Lighting effects look great with the Logitech GHub software.
On board profile recording and use sre great, if you don't use the software.
This does need a wrist rest, which is not included like other competitors

I replaced a very loud mechanical keyboard with this one to reduce the annoying noise when I typing. My wife is now much happier. The keyboard is very snappy and I like the responsiveness and feel of the mechanical keys when I'm working. I haven't gamed with this keyboard but for everyday use it is fantastic. The colors are also nice, and the light movements can be changed on the keyboard or with the optional software.

Love this keyboard, the keys feel amazing, the new GHUB software is nice, even though I think I like the old software more? Anyways... if you like clicky keys you'll love this board, moving from a G810 which was a lot more mechanical feeling than this one was a bit of an adjustment due to the more low-profile keys, but now I love the keyboard and if it just exploded right now I would buy it again. Feels premium in every way and for me, the price is justified.
