LOGITECH GAMING KEYBOARD G310 ATLAS DAWN

Logitech claimed that the G910 was the culmination of years of ongoing development by its engineering team. With feedback from gamers and eSport athletes the company set out to develop the next-generation mechanical key and the end result is what it calls Romer-G mechanical switches. While everyone else was busy ordering shiploads of Cherry MX switches, Logitech went about creating its own.

For the most part, the G910 received positive reviews, though the main sticking points were the keycaps and the palm rest. The non-unified keycaps were by far the most criticized part of the keyboard and I have to admit that we didn’t really enjoy them either. The uneven wrist pad was also horrible for typing and only suited for gaming — two were included and they both sucked.

Whereas the Cherry MX switches have a solid feel and in many versions a nice clicking noise to go along with it, the Romer-Gs feel squishier and have a hollower sounding click if you will.

That said, a lot of gamers really liked the switches while others said they could live with them if not for the keycaps.
Since pushing out the G910 some 11 months ago now we are yet to see another Romer-G enabled keyboard from Logitech. That was of course until it announced the G310

Atlas Dawn, a compact Romer-G mechanical keyboard.
As the name implies, the G310 is a slimmed down version of the G910. Gone are the macro keys along the side and top of the board, as are the media control functions. The number pad has also been given the boot.

The reason for removing these features has been to develop a lightweight and compact keyboard that’s better suited for travel to LAN events or to fit into smaller gaming spaces.
