Logitech G413 SE/TKL SE Keyboard Overview

Logitech does not like to "stamp" peripherals every year, forcing the buyer to spend money on updated versions of identical gadgets. On the contrary, the manufacturer is working on his own and other people's mistakes. And it rarely releases, but aptly, worthy devices for computer equipment. This is the essence of the brand. The Logitech G413 SE / TKL SE keyboards have become, it seems, a stripped-down version of the legend of 2017 - the Logitech G413. But the functionality, in fact, is not curtailed at all. Vice versa. Fixed minor flaws and improved the mechanics in the work.

Logitech G413 SE/TKL SE Keyboard Overview

 

Keyboards for an amateur, as it is presented in the "skeleton" form factor. This is when the keyboard case does not have a palm rest and there are no plastic panels around the perimeter of the keyboard unit. Due to this, the input device is significantly reduced in size and has less weight. You can buy keyboards in two variations:

 

• Logitech G413 SE - with digital block.
• Logitech G413 TKL SE - without digital block.

 

Despite the lightness of the case, both versions have retractable legs with a rubberized base. By the way, the Logitech G413 SE / TKL SE keyboards are not so light anymore. Mechanics require a metal plate at the base. Here it is, just, and adds gravity. The production involves an alloy of magnesium and aluminum.

The keycaps are made of plastic. The texture is rough, pleasant to the touch. Given the presence of backlit buttons, there is some guarantee that the keys will quickly rub off, with frequent use of peripherals. The backlight is devoid of RGB. Conventional white LEDs are used. For an amateur. But it is precisely due to the lack of RGB that the buyer receives a convenient price for the device in the store. By the way, without backlighting, in poor lighting conditions, the key markings are not readable. That is, you will have to use the backlight on an ongoing basis.

The connection to the PC is made with a standard USB 2.0 cable. Its length is 1.8 meters, there is a filter on the cable to protect against electrical pickup. Logitech G413 SE/TKL SE keyboards have media control buttons and function keys. You can't rely on script support. No support for Logitech G Hub utility. These are budget solutions for everyday tasks.
