The detachable wrist rest provides a comfortable resting position for your hands so as to reduce any strain through prolonged use.

Performance

The Logitech G19 Gaming Keyboard is compatible with computers that run on Windows XP, Vista, 7 and Mac OS X 10.4 or later. This Logitech gaming keyboard has 2 modes of operation which are the desktop mode and the gaming mode. In the gaming mode the Windows key is disabled so that it is not accidentally pressed, which interrupts the gameplay by bringing up the Windows menu.

The Logitech G19 Gaming Keyboard allows you to perform complicated manoeuvres as you can use at least five keys at the same time without any ghosting issues. There are 12 additional G-keys that are designed to be specifically used for gaming and they are placed on the left side of the Logitech G19 Gaming Keyboard. The layout of these G-keys makes them easily accessible and easy to memorize. Each G-key can perform up to 3 different functions as the keyboard comes with 3 profile settings. This profile feature can be activated at any time at the press of a button which changes the current setting of the G-keys to the new profile settings.

Enjoying your music and videos has never been simpler as the Logitech G19 Gaming Keyboard's convenient one-touch multimedia system controls both the volume and the media playback. Macro settings allow you to record complex actions at the push of a single key as you can program it to perform a series of actions that normally require you to press more than one key. The on-board memory saves your macro settings and profiles which allow you to load them again even if you connect it to another computer.
