Our Verdict

SteelSeries Apex Pro Mini

Logitech G PRO X 60

The SteelSeries Apex Pro Mini and the Logitech G PRO X 60 are compact 60% gaming keyboards. The SteelSeries has better overall build quality, and its standout feature is its hall-effect switches that allow you to customize the pre-travel and reset distance of individual switches. The Logitech is a wireless model that's comparatively much more straightforward and has standard optical switches.
