Logitech G today introduced the Logitech G Pro Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, designed in collaboration with eSports athletes for professional competition.

The keyboard features Logitech's Romer-G mechanical switches, offering 25 percent faster actuation than standard mechanical keyboards, all in a switch design that delivers quiet performance. It also features a detachable cable system, making it easy to transport with customizable RGB lighting and onboard memory.

With a short-throw actuation point of 1.5 mm, Romer-G switches register key presses up to 25 percent faster than standard mechanical switches and are designed for performance.

The keyboard is reinforced with a steel back plate, adding stability and rigidity for gameplay.

A detachable Micro-USB connector ensures that the cable won't break at the connection point when bouncing around in a bag and transported between events. The three-pronged design features support arms for an easy data connection.

Using optional Logitech Gaming Software (LGS), players can select and personalize each individual key light from more than 16.8 million colors, and save a lighting pattern to onboard memory so it's available for use in competition.

The Logitech G Pro Mechanical Gaming Keyboard is expected to be available at global retailers beginning in March 2017 for a suggested retail price of $129.99.
