Discussion G915 X Misprint

Post image

Realized that my wired G915 is missing the Num Lock text - its misprinted as Battery. Had a small chuckle.

Edit: This is a wired keyboard. There is no battery on this keyboard. This key reacts to the numlock key being pressed.

For comparison - I have one that is correctly printed

Except you have the wired version.

So is OP.

u/FishScrounger 3d ago

Wait. So there's a version of the G915 that comes without a battery but has a detachable cable?

I thought the G815 was the same as the G915 but wired (albeit with a non-detachable cable).

I was also very confused by this when I went to replace my wireless g915.

It was plugged in 99% of the time anyway so thought I'd save a few bucks on the wired version and it was...also a g915? lol

The G815 and G915 were discontinued, now Logitech only produces the G915 X-series as both wired and wireless.

u/FishScrounger 3d ago

Ah, I see there were also some additional improvements with keys too.

Something to look out for if my trusty G815 dies, I suppose.

u/WeirdoGermanDude 3d ago

Same here - my trusty G815 finally had the typical spacebar issues a lot of G815s are running into... might have to splurge for a new keyboard. But Logitech support might give me a 20% coupon, so that's nice.

G815 is such a nice keyboard tho. Apart from not being able to use the logitech software for the first 3 years i owned it... 😥

Mine is correct, the wireless model has Battery instead of Num lock. I guess Logitech couldn't afford one more tiny hole and an extra LED

Hmm. That is an interesting one.

Could you take a full picture of the front of the keyboard for us?

u/skylordjason 2d ago

Sure! Here you go.

I'm going to advise you if you haven't already to head to our support team through https://support.logi.com/hc/ so we can take a closer look at this. Unless it doesn't bother you too much, then it's just cosmetic.

u/skylordjason 1d ago

It’s purely cosmetic. I don’t care enough to get a product replacement or anything. Just thought it was funny. Keyboard works great as is

u/alabarda89 21h ago

You are Missing a free keyboard. Logitech doesn’t replace they give you another one.

u/RunnerLuke357 2d ago

Yeah mine is the same. I've had it a a few months.

u/RunnerLuke357 3d ago

Mine has the same misprint, I thought it was funny but I just ignore it at this point, it's probably not even worth making a ticket with them.

5

u/skylordjason 3d ago

I never look at it! I've had it for months now and JUST noticed it. I did a double take and just found it funny. Definitely no point making a ticket or reaching out. Its a perfectly functional keyboard. Who reads anyways.

u/DiirtyMike_EVE 3d ago

Logitec keyboard with a corsair cable. Officer arrest this man.

u/skylordjason 3d ago

Look its a nice braided cable. I already had the cables managed in my desk, so when I replaced the keyboard I just kept the cable as is.

u/x4it3r 3d ago

cheap skating on next level prob a whole batch went out like this

u/IntrovertMoTown1 3d ago

Mine is the same way. But I have the older lightspeed version not the X.

u/ZookeepergameSilent7 2d ago

My g915 light speed has a battery light and not a num lock light… fairly sure it’s intended as it blinks red when the battery is low and I think green or white while charging

1

u/skylordjason 2d ago

If you have a light speed/wireless keyboard, yeah. The one I bought isn’t though. It’s wired, and that light changes when I press numlock.

1

u/ZookeepergameSilent7 2d ago

Ah gotcha for some reason my brain interpreted wired as wireless lol. That is definitely a misprint then

1

u/lukilinixD 1d ago

did you use a corsair cable on your logitech keyboard? lmao

u/skylordjason 1d ago

The cable was already routed. I didn't care enough to unbundle the cables and reroute a new one. This one was already the perfect length.

u/Wonderful_Park1641 1d ago

this exact thing also happened with my g915 lol

u/JobHuntingManiac 2d ago

That light shouldn't even be on with num lock, these keyboards don't have a num lock light at all. Neither did the original 915.

the misprint is on the advertisement, not the keyboard.

1

u/skylordjason 2d ago

This isn’t an advertisement - it’s a picture of the keyboard on my desk. This is the wired 915X with a numlock key. I posted a full picture to Logitech’s reply to the post.

It absolutely doesn’t have a battery, and this led changes in response to the numlock key being pressed.
