Logitech G13 Advanced Gameboard

The Logitech G13 Advanced Gamepad is definitely a niche product, but with a comfortable design and wide array of features, it's a good fit for the diehard gamer.

Ergonomic comfort and superior control. Programmable 22-button keypad with swappable maps and profiles. Onboard memory. Extra long cable.

Steep learning curve. Labor intensive setup. Not Plug-and-Play. Clickable joystick is difficult to click.

Logitech G13 Advanced Gameboard

For most PC gamers, the best part about playing on a PC over console is the added control and flexibility of using a mouse and keyboard. More specifically the mouse gives you the amazing control that just can't be found with a gamepad. The keyboard,...

There isn't much more than needs said that I haven't already covered. But if you haven't figured it out, the G13 can be hard to get used too but it totally works great once you do. You literally can program every one of the 25/29 keys to do anything at...

Logitech G13 Advanced Gameboard for PC Games

Adding to its "G" series of gaming peripherals, Logitech has released the G13 Advanced Gameboard. The G13 offers 25 programmable keys, 3 quick switchable profiles, a 4 way control stick, and a GamePanel LCD. Read on to see how the G13 fares in a...

comfortable ; on the fly" macro recording ; user controllable backlight color mix

joystick lacks analog output (right now) ; joystick is uncomfortable and hard to control ; on the fly" macros don't support delays

The G13 arrived at my doorstep in a standard cardboard box; apparently UPS took a dislike to it, because the end was all smashed up.

Logitech G13 Advanced Gameboard

Today we have the opportunity to check out the Logitech G13 Advanced Gameboard. The G13 offers a customizable keyboard for any gamer. A natural contoured design is implemented into the 25-key setup. The LCD Display is yet another benefit of the G13....

Ergonomic design ; Plenty of programmable keys ; LCD Display ; Quality composition ; ANY color backlight

Expensive ; Hard to get used to

The Logitech G13 certainly has a lot of features packed into this Advanced Keyboard. The key configuration doesn't allow you to just use keys or macros, but use programs, open files, or do pretty much whatever you want it to do. The LCD Display is a...

Logitech G13 Advanced Gameboard

We recently reviewed (and loved) Logitech's G19 gaming keyboard, a high-end and high-priced peripheral option for gamers who want to amp up their arsenal. This time around, we're going to be looking at a gaming option half the size and half the price -...

We truly enjoyed playing and tinkering with the G13 and its seemingly endless options. Performance in-game was smooth aside from a few hiccups, but gaming styles vary, so what bothered us may not even faze others.

Review: Logitech G13 Advanced Gameboard

We are finally at a stage where notebook computers have the power to play games at a high level while still being reasonably affordable. While the video card and processor can support the game, and you have a nice 17-inch display, you still have your...

Logitech G13 Advanced Gameboard

Not quite the gaming keypad to rule them all, Logitech's first effort is nonetheless useful both for gaming and productivity.

While not quite the consummate marvel we had hoped for, despite its flaws Logitech's G13 Advanced Gameboard is the most desirable gaming keypad on the market and justifies its high price with features like a programmable LCD screen and backlighting in...
