Pros
Pro Dedicated media controls
On its top right corner, this keyboard has 5 media control keys and a volume roller. These keys are round, making it easy to quickly tell them apart from the rest of the keys.
Pro Fully customizable RGB lighting
The Romer-G key switches used on this keyboard have little light-bleed, and the Logitech Gaming software lets you light up individual keys with any color. The software can also detect games running, and provide pre-set lighting profiles for each of them.
Pro Good in-house made switches
This Logitech keyboard uses in-house developed Romer-G switch technology, which is designed with gamers in mind. The keys actuate at just 1.5 mm with a force of 45g, giving them a very responsive feel. They're also built around the RGB lighting, and therefore suffer from little lightbleeding. Another benefit is the long durability of these switches, which have a lifespan rated at 70 million keystrokes (higher than the typical 50-60 million rate of other key switches).
Pro DIY
You can really make this board your own. The seperated space bar makes it even more fun than the regular Planck because you can program both space bars differently. You can also get the keys much more easily because you just need a pair of single key width keys.
Pro Split layout
You can set this board up in a very ergonomic manner
Cons
Con Slight metallic ring when keys bottom out
You may notice a slight metallic ring when bottoming out individual keys. It's hardly noticeable when typing text or gaming, but, on occasion, when pressing keys individually, it's perceptible.
Con No switch choice
Romer-G switches are the only available option for the G810. It could be interesting to have the option of getting this keyboard with Cherry MX switches, which many find more satisfying to use that the Romer-Gs.
Con DIY
Most people just want to buy a keyboard so that they can have it and type on it. But if you're ordering an ortholinear 40% split keyboard, you've probably already got strong enough opinions on switches, key layouts, and keycaps, that you're not going to be very satisfied with a mass market keyboard anyway.
Con Somehow cheaper to spec out than a Planck
This keyboard is based on the Planck. You would think that the Planck, what with its popularity, would cost more. Somehow, it's actually cheaper. This actually has to do with the case/frame. Instead of ordering a really nice prefabricated case, you end up ordering laser cut panels and spacers to create a frame to hold the whole thing high enough off your desk to type comfortably.
