On any proper remote workstation there is nothing worse than cable clutter. Who can be productive with dozens of wires hanging off and around their desk? In 2021, bluetooth wireless technology has created so many viable solutions for our previously connected externals.
In comes the Logitech G915 Lightspeed, the latest addition to Logitech’s robust catalogue of wireless externals.
