Our Verdict

Logitech G PRO Keyboard

Corsair K95 PLATINUM

The Corsair K95 PLATINUM is a much more versatile gaming keyboard than the Logitech G Pro Mechanical Gaming Keyboard. It comes in different switches, including Speed ones, which are very quick to actuate. It also has dedicated macro keys, and an included comfortable wrist rest. On the other hand, if you don't like RGB bleeding across the board, the Logitech might be a better option.
