Today, Logitech introduced the G413 SE full size and G413 TKL tenkeyless Mechanical Gaming Keyboards. Built for gamers, they feature six-key rollover anti-ghosting for multi-key combos and white back-lit LED keycaps. For structural rigidity, the G413s are built on a black-brushed aluminum-magnesium alloy top case. The full-size G413 SE is priced at only $79.99 and the G413 TKL is even less at $69.99. Availability is projected for February of 2022 so we should start seeing them in stores and online soon. Below is Logitech’s official press release.

Featuring white LED lighting and a black-brushed aluminum-magnesium alloy top case as the keyboard’s backbone, the result is a minimal design, balanced with features that make this keyboard a must-have for gamers.
In addition, the keyboards were designed to deliver reliable key input versus other non-gaming mechanical keyboards, with the addition of the six-key rollover anti-ghosting performance, which means multiple keys can be pressed simultaneously and all register at the same time to trigger a special game move.

Today I’m taking a look at what many consider to be the marque keyboard/remote for HTPC use, the Logitech DiNovo Mini. This device is probably the most premium device of it’s type.
Adding to their already popular MEKA gaming keyboard line, Tt eSPORTS (Thermaltake) has a new member of the family we’ll be reviewing today. The MEKA G-Unit Cherry MX Red Switch Edition Mechanical Gaming Keyboard is the full name attached to this monster, and that’s certainly a mouthful! The MEKA G-Unit line of mechanical gaming keyboards comes in other options as well, coming in the form of the Illuminated Edition, Combat Edition and one called simply G-Unit. Let’s save the other MEKA G-Unit keyboards for perhaps another day and dive into today’s sample for a closer look at this latest mechanical gaming keyboard offering from Tt eSPORTS.
Sorry if I missed it, but any word on what switches they're using?
Also kind of a sidebar comment, I grabbed a K840 a few years back on impulse that's fairly similar - metal faceplate, the "floating key" design, tactile switches, and intended to be a sub-$100 mechanical board. Not a real fan as the keys feel kind of loose - unsure if it's due to the floating keys or switches themselves (Romer-Gs). Hoping these don't have the same issue.
Crap. I meant to mention that in the article. No, there is no mention as to what they are using. One has to assume they are either in-house switches or a cheaper knock-off brand. I would assume if they were using Cherry or Kailh they would mention that. Plus, with the boards being only $70 and $80 that almost prices them out of the "name brand" switches.
Yeah, it makes sense they'd use the Romers (which I guess are Logitech's in house switch?) for these as well as they're priced close to the K840. Was just curious if there was anything official.
