Summary

Logitech’s first 60% gaming keyboard, a compact wireless board with GX Optical switches, dual-shot PBT keycaps and deep KEYCONTROL remapping. Check the price before you buy: at the $179.99 list, the soldered switches and 1000Hz polling cap are hard to justify.

Strengths

  • The 60% layout frees desk space for mouse movement, the main reason to pick this form factor.
  • LIGHTSPEED 2.4GHz wireless feels indistinguishable from a wired board in testing.
  • Dual-shot PBT keycaps should resist wear better than ABS.
  • KEYCONTROL maps up to 15 functions per key across multiple layers.
  • A right-side game mode switch cuts the Windows and context keys in one press.
  • A carrying case is included for travel.

Weaknesses

  • Switches are soldered, so there is no hot-swap and no analog or adjustable actuation.
  • PCMag observed serious key wobble and called out chattering keys.
  • Only 1000Hz polling, where some rivals offer higher rates.
  • The volume roller sits on the left and can be bumped by accident.
  • G HUB still has bugs and key mapping takes a lot of clicks.
  • At the $179.99 list, the feature set trails cheaper boards.

Wireless performance and battery

Wireless gaming is the reason to buy this board. RTINGS rated it 8.5/10 and measured outstanding single-key and excellent multi-key latency that takes full advantage of the 1000Hz polling rate, and LanOC reported two months of flawless wireless use with 66 hours of real battery life between charges. Bluetooth gives you a secondary connection for switching between devices.

The 65-hour rating assumes RGB at maximum brightness and saturation; turning the lighting off stretches it further. Charging is over USB-C at 2 watts. Reported weight is 1.36 lb (616 g), close to the 610 g figure Logitech lists, so treat it as a minor rounding difference.

Switches, keycaps and layout

GX Optical switches come in tactile (60g) and linear (50g), both with 1.8mm actuation and 4.0mm travel, and they are factory-lubricated. They are soldered in place, so you cannot swap them later or move to a hall-effect or analog switch. Keycaps are dual-shot PBT in a standard layout, so aftermarket sets fit. There are no dedicated media keys: media controls live on the Fn layer, and the 60% layout means Fn combos for the missing keys.

Software and customization

KEYCONTROL allows up to 15 functions per key across layers, and Tom’s Hardware praised the depth of programmability. The catch is G HUB: reviewers note it still has bugs and that remapping a key takes many clicks. Three onboard profiles let you carry settings without the software running.

Repairs and ownership costs

There are no proprietary consumables, so the only running cost is occasional charging. The battery is user-removable and Logitech’s safety instructions show how. Switches are not user-replaceable, so a failed or chattering switch means a repair rather than a swap. The keyboard is covered by a two-year limited hardware warranty.

Known reliability complaints

Some owners report double-tap or chatter on G Pro boards; one r/LogitechG thread is titled “Logitech G Pro keyboards DOUBLE TAP!!!” and warns buyers. That thread is not specific to the PRO X 60, and nobody has published a failure rate, so treat it as a known annoyance to watch rather than a confirmed defect. PCMag separately noted chattering on its review unit.

Is it worth it?

Value turns on price. Below $100 the board is a strong buy for its wireless performance, build and PBT keycaps. Between $101 and $130 it is still good value, especially if you want Logitech ecosystem integration. Between $131 and $160 it is fair: compare against boards with hot-swap, higher polling or hall-effect switches. At the $161 to $180 list it is weak value, and above $180 poor value, given the soldered switches, the 1000Hz cap and no rapid trigger.

Prices seen at retailers: Logitech’s own store listed the board at $143.99 in October 2026, Best Buy at $149, Newegg at $126.50, Lenovo and Target at $179.99, and Logitech refurbished at $79.99.

Which model this is

This page covers the 60% wireless model with GX Optical switches, sold in Black, White and Magenta, with tactile or linear switches. The black tactile version carries US part number 920-011902 and a white linear version 920-012169. Do not confuse it with the larger G PRO X TKL or the wired G PRO X, which are different keyboards.

The Amazon listing for reference is ASIN B0BRSSGBCN.
