Logitech G213 Prodigy Review: Design & Build Quality

At first glance, the design and build quality of the Logitech G213 prodigy gaming keyboard look quite premium and great.

In this, you also get to see wrist rest, which is quite a good thing for a gamer like me.

See, if you do a long gaming session, then you know very well how beneficial is wrist rest in the keyboard?

Although many gamers buy wrist rest separately and use it, but the Logitech G213 has already given you wrist support feature.

You do not have any problem of lighting leaks in this, which again is quite a good thing.

Logitech G213 Prodigy design and build quality

Let me tell you that the Logitech G213 is not a mechanical keyboard, it is a semi-membrane keyboard, but gives you a very good feel.

In this, very low profile keys have been used, due to which you will get to hear a very minimalist sound, which is very helpful for streamers.

Now there are some gamers who do not like the sound of keys at all, for this you will either need a high-end microphone which captures only your sound instead of capturing your background noise.

Or you take a keyboard that gives you a very minimal sound.

In the Logitech G213 you get about 1.8 meters long braided cable whose quality is really good.

Apart from this, you also get significant grips in the back side of the keyboard which helps to keep it stable.

So overall not only its design is quite good but its build quality is also very premium level.

Logitech G213 Prodigy Review: RGB Lights

Logitech G213 prodigy gaming keyboard is a complete RGB keyboard in which you get a spectrum of 16.8 million colors.

If for some reason you have to turn off these RGB lights, then for that you have been given a button near the game mode in the keyboard, with the help of which you can easily turn these lights on/off.

You can customize these RGB lights with the help of Logitech software, which we will understand in the software section.

Logitech G213 Prodigy Review: Game Mode

A game mode is given in the Logitech G213 prodigy gaming keyboard.

You will see this button top of the keyboard.

In this keyboard you have not been given any dedicated window lock key button, but with the help of game mode button you will be able to lock the window key.

Logitech G213 Prodigy Review: Multimedia Keys

On top of the numpad in the keyboard, you will find all the multimedia keys. Where you also get the option to control the music right away.

For me, as a gamer, this feature is very useful because I do not have to try to control multimedia every time.

With the help of these buttons directly, I can complete all the necessary tasks.

Logitech G213 Prodigy Review: Numpad

You also get the numpad in the Logitech G213 prodigy gaming keyboard.

In some games like GTA 5 you get a lot of help from numpad.

In some games, you can make some controls much easier with the help of numpad.

Although there are some gamers who need a TKL gaming keyboard that does not have a numpad, the Evo Fox Fireblade gaming keyboard can be a good option for them.

Logitech G213 Prodigy Review: Liquid Resistance

Often we drink tea or coffee while gaming and it happens so many times that unintentionally they fall on the keyboard from us.

We will learn about them in the software section in the detail.

Logitech G213 Prodigy Gaming Keyboard Review: Software

Logitech G213 prodigy gaming keyboard has not provided any special customize buttons but with the help of software we can customize it to a large extent.

In this, we see three types of sections in which the first section comes from Lightsync, where we can customize the RGB lights of the keyboard.

Here we get a variety of presets, in which many different effects have been given.

With the help of this software we can set it in any effect.

There is one effect which I personally like very much is Audio Visualizer, if we have any music playing then with the help of this effect we will get to see the effects in RGB lights according to that music, which looks quite cool.

In this, the second section comes of Assignments, with the help of which we can assign programmable keys to any task.

So similarly in the software we get a lot of different types of customize options that we can easily perform.
