New Keyboard - G915 replacement

Kanpai · 28 Mar 2025 at 06:48

My trusty G915 appears to have developed a faulty charging port and is out of warranty so I need a replacement.

Needs to be wireless, usb-c charging and able to connect to multiple devices (I toggle between work/personal machines)

Budget around £100-150.

Any recommendations?

Keychron seems to be dominating this segment, take your pick.

RE toggling between work/personal machines, have you tried a USB switch?

Thanks, indeed they seem to be the go to keyboards these days.

Not looked into a usb switch but definitely an option if need be

I tried one randomly a bit ago. I would switch between a MacBook for work and my custom built watercooled monster for gaming etc. I didn't expect it to be so effective tbh.

Essentially connected up a mouse, kb, webcam, audio gear to the switch. Wired or wireless doesn't matter. At the press of a button all of that gear gets switched over to the other machine.

I very quickly upgraded it to one that also switches a 4K 240Hz signal and now my main monitor also switches over at a pop. It's awesome!

I use a USB switch for work, very handy.

Connect the keyboard and mouse (And anything else USB related) to this and then it detects if my desktop is on or laptop. If they are both on there is a button to toggle between the 2.
