What's the difference between this and the G-Box Midnight MX2? Is it the same?

both people buy the same box from china, load their own home brew onto it and offer some level of support. I choose Matricom. I prefer the newer interface and I like the support they have provided me so far. I have purchased around 7 of these so far for gift or work. Had two fail (or I locked it up monkeying with it) and they exchanged in a little over a week. They'll get my future business. If your so worried about paying rock bottom, order for ali in china and get it for $50 and if you have any problems throw it in the trash and kiss your money goodbye :)

Not much difference at all. the G510 has a little more control over the color of the lights for the keys, and conrtol over the sound system including mute. In my opinion either board you select you will have as good ad there is on the market. ps Logitech didn't pay me a nickle for this testimony and I mean every word of it!

Edit: Sorry for misleading, they are both ficker free. The major difference is GL2760H is TN panel; GW2760HS is VA panel. And GW2760HS has 1W*2 built-in speakers; GL2760H not.Another difference is GW2760HS uses a DC (Direct Current) method for background light brightness control but GL2760H use old PWM background light brightness control. In another word, GW2760HS is flicker free but GL2760H not; that's why GW2760HS more expensive.

I'm using this keyboard with an IOgear GCS634U 4-port KVM. I'm not a gamer, so I can't speak to any of those issues. I'm also using the SetPoint software because I have a Logitech wireless mouse as well. I have two laptops and one desktop on the KVM and I don't see any issues. The backlighting works fine as well as the special purpose keys (volume, web keys, etc.).

I use the Startech KVM switch with a Logitech G500 gaming mouse without issue. My keyboard is a standard keyboard though. I would add, the times I've had problems with the KVM switch are when the KVM switch gets radio frequency interference from my iphone. So, I keep the iphone away from the KVM switch and it works like a charm.

I received the 1800. There really should be a distinction between the two mice on Amazon. The reviews are getting mixed. People who have had their 1600 DPI Mx518 for years are reviewing this product thinking they are talking about the 1600. I'm returning mine.

I have the special edition! It comes with an air mouse/keypad instead of a remote... It is great, however I have had a few issues with my gbox. I have a friend with the regular box, never had one issue and it also came loaded with xbmc. I think both are good

I don't exactly know what is the difference between G2 (that I own) and R5 version (May be R5 is a newer technology or not). However, the G2 has a max output of 180 and the R5 has 189. Other than that I have not really observed any difference when read the product specifications. All I can say is - two or three extra bucks will get you higher output (although the difference is subtle and probably you won't even notice by doing a side by side comparison).

It is i would say. I got the red as well but you only hear a thump, while this has a mechanical metal like click. I wish I could compare it to my IBM m though side by side. Other than going unicomp, mx blue seem like the only alternative

The only difference is that one is white and one is black. If you are talking about the Tascam MX2 which is black, the difference is that the MX2s have a oval shaped earpad, and the earcups are a bit deeper. Many say that the MX2s are a better fit.

The description says 510. The photo... I can make out that it says 510, partly because I'm using the keyboard right now. There is a link to the "newer" version of the product which is the 510s. Fairly certain this is the just the G510, which totally sucks if you wanted it for the illuminating keys.

Hi, the box I received has the Mad Catz Logo on it but I did not think there was a difference between the models, just the branding. Also, yes the Key's do light up and yes you make them any color you like however it is one color for all keys (ie. you can not change the color of individual Keys of zones)

To answer this question is more depth and technically proper: The G-Box MX2 can play 1080p without scaling in any app, except XBMC will scale the videos to 720p. This is not a hardware limitation, it is completely software related. If you decide to go with a full XBMC firmware, such as installing OpenElec, there is no 720p limitation in XBMC and it will play 1080p perfectly. Any other app used in Android such as the media player that comes with the device or Netflix for example will play full 1080p.

No. That one is the non-HD model. Indicators are the price and that box doesn't have [HD] on it. The 0.3pm (non-HD) compared to 2mp video quality is substantial. The 2mp/HD is much, much better and worth the extra if you plan on recording any video.

I only used my KVM with my MX518, and that worked fine. I can't say I ever used a KVM with my G500 though(left click switch went bad in under 1 year btw, I just bought the G700). I suspect the KVM switch would not effect the standard functionality. Any lack of operation would probably be more specific to the KVM's quality or compatibility with the mouse due to voltage or signal loss through the KVM.

Yes, works great with the mx2. The one I have won't turn the power off...have to use the remote that came with the mx2 to do that, but it does everything else.

To be honest I am not sure, what I heard is that the only difference is the box that the keyboard comes in. Get which ever one is cheaper
