For a few reasons, I'm considering buying the Logitech G Pro tenkeyless in the coming weeks.
If you are or have been a user of it, I'd love to hear your thoughts.
Or if you're aware of a similar keyboard, which might be better in your view, I'd love to know about it!
The reasons I'm keen on the Logitech G Pro TKL, thus far, and the things I'm really looking for in a keyboard, are basically:
My biggest concern with the Logitech G Pro TKL is that it uses their own Romer G switches which... well, I'd prefer switches with a better reputation. It's also that, with the Romer G, my options for tweaks / modifications are limited. But, I believe that it's the design of the Romer G switches that allows the lighting to illuminate just the characters of the keycap. So, the good often comes with the bad.
When I talk about "modifications" I mean that, ideally, I'd be able to reduce the distance that the key can travel, so that it doesn't "bottom out" during a keystroke - reducing noise.

The reasons I'm keen on the Logitech G Pro TKL, thus far, and the things I'm really looking for in a keyboard, are basically:
- lighting just from within the keycaps - I don't want light spilling out from under the keys
- tenkeyless, or compact - either is fine
- on the quiet side, relative to the range of keyboards out there
- low or lowish actuation, relative to the range of keyboards out there
- wired
- sturdy / decent build quality
