Logitech G, a sub-brand of the global technology company, Logitech, recently unveiled its latest innovation, the PRO X 60 LIGHTSPEED Gaming Keyboard, designed to meet the exacting demands of professional gamers. With a compact 60 percent form factor and innovative KEYCONTROL technology, this keyboard aims to provide the ultimate competitive edge while maintaining portability.
For those who are unfamiliar with the 60 keyboard, it is a stripped down, compact version of the conventional computer keyboard preferred by gamers for faster controls by sacrificing some of the lesser-used keys. The PRO X 60 is Logitech’s first foray into the 60 keyboard market.
The PRO X 60 appeals to its target segment and is endorsed by several top esports athletes, garnering praises for its adaptability to various setups and ease of transport.
“The PRO X 60 is the perfect fit for players who need a keyboard that can adapt to any setup and condition. It’s also super easy to carry around when traveling. I love it.” Shared Michaela ‘mimi’ Lintrup, G2 Esports, Valorant.
“Now that I have the PRO X 60 with KeyControl, I have more room for flick shots, all while being able to tailor my layout so I don’t miss any keys. I can’t wait to use this in competition.” Added Emma “Emy” Choe, FlyQuest RED, CounterStrike 2.
While smaller format keyboards are great for competitive play, they can lack critical keys that some pro players need. To solve this, the PRO X 60 introduces an innovative new technology, KEYCONTROL, to provide gamers with customisation capabilities far beyond what a standard keyboard delivers. KEYCONTROL allows users to customise up to 15 functions per key through the GHUB software to ensure that critical commands are readily accessible, enhancing gameplay efficiency and responsiveness.
The PRO X 60 also features the trusted performance and reliability of Logitech G’s LIGHTSPEED wireless technology. This ensures a reliable and fast connection, crucial for minimising input lag in competitive scenarios.
The PRO X 60 is available with GX Optical switches in both tactile and linear configurations, offering faster actuation and increased durability compared to traditional mechanical switches. Factory-lubricated and designed for precision, these switches provide a satisfying gaming and typing experience, further enhancing the keyboard’s performance.
Additional features such as dual-shot PBT keycaps, LIGHTSYNC RGB lighting, and media controls contribute to the overall user experience. The inclusion of a semi-hard carrying case underscores the keyboard’s portability, making it an ideal choice for professional gamers on the go.
Pricing and Availability
The PRO X 60 LIGHTSPEED Wireless Gaming Keyboard is available in Black, White, and Pink, on Logitech G’s Official Store on Lazada and Shopee, as well as offline in major retailers for a suggested retail price of $299 SGD.
