Logitech Delivers Mechanical Keyboard Gamers Deserve
New Logitech G710+ Mechanical Gaming Keyboard Features High-Speed, Low-Noise
Mechanical Keys and Adjustable Dual-Zone Backlighting for Lightning Fast, Whisper-Quiet Gaming
NEWARK, Calif. -Oct. 9, 2012 – Today Logitech (SIX: LOGN) (NASDAQ: LOGI) announced the
newest addition to its G-Series line of high performance gaming products: the Logitech® G710+
Mechanical Gaming Keyboard. Designed to help you focus on the game, this keyboard is tested and
tuned to deliver what gamers want: minimal distraction, rapid response, and complete control.
“The Logitech G710+ Mechanical Gaming Keyboard was created to meet the specific needs of
gamers,” said Mark Starrett, senior global product manager for Logitech. “We road tested this keyboard
with professional gamers, partners, publishers, and everyday gamers like you and me, to ensure we’ve
created a mechanical gaming keyboard that exceeds expectations.”
The keyboard’s mechanical keys deliver gaming-grade responsiveness, featuring an actuation force of
45g and distance of 4 mm, and are optimized for rapid command entry. Additionally, the non-clicking
key switches have a built-in dampening ring underneath each keycap to significantly reduce the
distracting noise coming from your key presses without sacrificing responsiveness. The keyboard has
undergone a torturous testing process to help ensure durability, with a cycle life of at least a 50 million
keystrokes.
The entire keyboard is backlit in white LED light, adjustable to one of four brightness levels, and can be
turned completely off. For better visibility of the WASD and arrow keys, their brightness can be adjusted
independently of the rest of the keyboard.
Using the newly updated Logitech Gaming Software, you can assign complex macros or intricate Lua
gaming scripts to the keyboard’s G-keys – both on the fly and in advance – for up to 18 individual
functions per game. Plus, all 110 keys feature anti-ghosting and 26-key rollover to help ensure you can
execute complex key-commands with flawless precision. The Logitech G710+ Mechanical Gaming
Keyboard is compatible with Microsoft Windows® 8, Windows 7, and Windows Vista®logitech Delivers Mechanical Keyboard Gamers Deserve –
“The first major event that I used the Logitech keyboard was at MLG Summer Arena,” said NY Jacky
from Team Curse. “I looked at my creep score after the tournament and it was higher than normal. Most
of the time you need to get used to a keyboard – this one you just slip into quickly. I would never, ever
think of using anything else.”
