why does the G10 retail for almost double of the new G15

I was wondering the same. I do know that it has a higher resolution of 14.something.

Google does not ship international. So I can see people from outside of US paying more because of the availability.

Even though I'm looking at mine and it says 14.8%, I see the back of the one being sold here is 15.2%. I guess they have made them in different strengths.

It might be that they are recalculating their stock and shipping. Don't spend the extra 100 for a UK purchase, try mwave, or newegg, they have stock replace more quickly

I think it is just a case of Logitech trying to gouge the consumer. Their manufacturing costs did not increase anywhere close to that amount. I manufacture many products in china (these are made on Doungguan) and they are just trying to make a better profit to pay for their acquisition of Lifesize communications (for which they over paid) to explain to wall street. Don't accept it. Buy a closeout receiver and a nice pair of speakers for about the same price until they realize their mistake and lower their retail prices back down to the $270 level which still gives them a good profit and a reasonable valuue for the consumer.

G2 is the newest flagship model made by super flowerB1 = FSP RaiderB2 = Cost down version of the Super Flower Golden GreenG1 = FSP Aurum Gold (with the exception of the 1000w G1 which should be a modified FSP Aurum Pro)G2 = Super Flower Leadex. From best to worst: G2 > B2 > G1 > B1, as such, I would recommend the G2 or the B2 depending on the price. Which the B2 is priced very well atm for around $49.99 or so - making it an excellent value (probably the best at this price range atmLong story short, G2 is about as good as you can get for the money if you want the best.

I have never seen the G15 in person but as for the G510 ....the keyboard back light is very good that a keyboard novice can use it in the dark a see clearly.... note that different colors pop better but all can be seen.... only thing that would be nicer but not and issue are the buttons below the screen they don't lite up or at least have some glow.

Yeah, having it built in is well worth it. My excuse for buying a G73jh-a1 disappeared...but I sorta kinda haven't actually canceled my preorder yet :-D

it doesn't normally cost anywhere close. It's $149.99 direct from buttkicker or $129 at other outlets. Those prices are for the version 2 which fixed an issue with the power amp overheating on the version 1 (this one makes no reference to version so one must assume he is selling the first version). Some goofballs price items this way so they can make people feel that they are getting a deal by posting the amazon link and then asking $300 or some funky number.

Although I only own the white version I am pretty sure that the internals are identical. The price differences are a fine example of marketing in action; the more popular item (=higher demand) is priced higher or in simple terms: you take what you can get. By the way, the prices are also different in Germany where we live half of the year. Prices are much higher there and black is the cheapest version because customer preferences differ from the US.

The G11 does good video but the G15 is better HD. I don't think you'd be disappointed with G11 but there have been some improvements with the later series. Give it a try as a test run and if you don't like it upgrade to the 15.

For the extra $100, the G10 has 3" LCD 460Kp vs 2.5" 230Kp and lens 28-140 vs 33-133 also full PASM modes. All would be important to me. Many post attest to how much owner enjoy G10. G10 significantly larger 109x78x46 vs 97x62x28. You can tell I am comparing these 2 also. Go for the G10.

I just parallel tested my beloved G9 vs. my new G10 using a tripod; same subject, lighting, settings, modes, at ISO 80, 200, and 400. The 10 renders noticeably crisper and cleaner pics than my 9. Also, my G9 consistently produced images that were 10 to 15% on the dark side. The 10's exposures are spot on. I no longer have to jiggle with in-camera exposure comp for each image or take each one to Photoshop for correction. And I like the G10's much improved LCD, the wider angle lens, and better grip. I think you'd like the 10. I couldn't be happier with my purchase.

I believe the version with jimping is the carbon fiber model, not the G10 model.

That is incorrect. Google and Amazon operate at the speed of lightening...actually faster. The prices can be there for a week and when attempt to order, the price at the store is incorrect. The problem lies with the store.

Agreed- they're the same. Companies - especially electronics brands - add these numbers to most of their products, in order to allow stores to be the "exclusive seller" of that model, and/or offer the "guaranteed lowest price" on that model (since they're the only one that sells it).
