Logitech’s G213 Prodigy can be defined with an American term, and that’s “half in the bag.” I think that they could have done much better while keeping the price close to the present one. Right now, it looks like Logitech really wanted something with RGB to market it towards gamers.

If we take into account a large number of features it offers and its price (MSRP $70), the G213 Prodigy from Logitech is an excellent device for a membrane-based keyboard; With its RGB lighting and dome-shaped keys, it will appeal to numerous players out there.

The most significant problem for the keyboard is the quality of the keys; I know that this issue can be somewhat mitigated by the fact that it’s not all that expensive; You could say that it’s a tradeoff made by Logitech for a lower price, but the irony is that it’s a good peripheral otherwise.

The G213 impresses in several key areas: its mechanical-style typing action is robust and impressive, and it has good features for media playback and day-to-day use. Its build quality and lighting could both be better, though, and it’s physically larger than its rivals.

Satisfying; impressive typing action; Loads of media keys; Plenty of features elsewhere

Mediocre build quality; Underwhelming lighting; Larger than rivals
