Logitech G releases G512 X Gaming Keyboard

Logitech G has just announced details of its latest innovation in gaming - the G512 X Gaming Keyboard.

The G512 X gaming keyboard arrives as the next landmark in Logitech G’s  relentless pursuit of breakthroughs in PLAY, continuing the momentum of the  revolutionary HITS technology introduced with the PRO X 2 SUPERSTRIKE. Just as  SUPERSTRIKE redefined the limits of gameplay in esports, the G512 X establishes a new frontier  in versatile performance. By becoming the first major global brand to introduce DUAL SWAP  technology, Logitech G continues to drive the industry forward with a keyboard engineered for  a new generation of players who redefine performance through customisation. 

The G512 X is our love letter to gamers who never stop tuning, tweaking, and chasing mastery.  Inspired by the rise of custom keyboard culture, the G512 X provides control at every level and  introduces a series of innovations. It is the first Logitech G keyboard to feature TMR (Tunnel  Magnetoresistance), Dual Swap capability, a Global Light Bar, and fully assignable and  customisable Dual Dials. It also debuts SAPP (Second Actuation Pressure Point), enabling two  distinct actuation points per key to unlock unprecedented control and layered inputs within a  single keystroke. 

Together, these breakthroughs culminate in the most adaptable keyboard we’ve ever built—a  completely customisable performance system designed to evolve with the player. Analogue inspired precision and software-enabled intelligence allow players to fine-tune actuation  depth, reset points, and performance curves, bringing controller-level nuance into the  competitive keyboard space. 

Launching in both 75 and 98-key layouts, G512 X is designed to be the perfect partner to the  iconic G502 X gaming mouse and the G522 immersive headset. Together, they form the first  true G5 Series lineup, an ecosystem built for players who demand that their performance  adapts to them, not the other way around. To further enhance the keyboard’s allure, both  layouts offer gamers the opportunity to accessorise their setup with a premium acrylic palm  rest. More than just a support, the G512 X palm rests are prisms of comfort, designed with an  intricate laser-etched pattern and a translucent acrylic mould that catches and amplifies  RGB lighting into a brilliant, crystalline display. 

Bold, with game-enhancing capabilities for legendary performance, the G512 X, and its  accompanying palm rest, becomes its perfect keyboard partner and the new command  centre of every G5 Series battle station. 

KEY FEATURES 

● DUAL SWAP BETWEEN ANALOG & MECHANICAL: Enabled by TMR sensors, players can  use BOTH analog and mechanical switches in any of the 39 hybrid switch beds. It is  compatible with almost all popular analogue and 3-pin/5-pin mechanical switches. 

● NEW TMR ANALOG SENSORS: High-Resolution sensors offering unrivalled precision,  rapid-fast response, and outstanding durability. 

● RAPID TRIGGER: Enables faster repeated key presses, giving players quicker  movement stops, starts, and inputs—especially useful for advanced mechanics like  counter-strafing. 

● KEY PRIORITY: Players can set priority for when two opposite directions are activated  at the same time to prevent conflicting inputs. 

● PER KEY ACTUATION: Set specific actuation distances for each analog switch from 0.1  mm to 4.0 mm. 

● MULTIPOINT ACTION & SAPP RINGS: Set two different inputs/actions to the same key  that trigger at different actuation points. Included "SAPP" rings provide physical  feedback when you reach the second actuation pressure point. 

● TRUE 8KHz REPORT RATE: Built to give a true 8K wired connection report rate at  0.125ms, providing speeds faster than what’s actually possible for a human to register.

● DUAL PROGRAMMABLE DIALS: Two clickable, bidirectional turn dials that are fully  programmable via Full Key Control. 

● BOLD LIGHTSYNC RGB LIGHT BAR: A new PVD coated light bar with a slash pattern that  matches the keyboard's design and remains vibrant even without lighting.
