What will you mostly use it for?
The R75 has the edge for office controls, programming, modding, and content creation, chiefly through its knob and QMK/VIA support. Travel is a split decision: the G75 Pro has the larger listed battery, while the R75 is lighter according to its metadata. Gaming is effectively even on the documented shared layout, switch type, mount, and connection options. The G75 Pro is the more appealing option if aluminum construction and battery capacity matter more than programmable controls.
It's a tie
- Both use linear switches, a gasket mount, and support wired, Bluetooth, and 2.4 GHz connections.
- The G75 Pro has RGB backlighting and hot-swappable switches, while the R75 offers RGB and hot-swappable linear Cream switches.
- The listed features do not establish a clear gaming advantage for either board.
