I was looking for a new USB-c hub and came across this article. It's an interesting write-up of what is on the inside of some popular options

I don't think Logitech has been a contender for years now. At least for their desktop peripherals. I used to be a fanboy, but had three mice all fail the same way within a year (middle click failed), then my new, expensive keyboard I bought for the office started dropping many keys under my left hand. And I work from home, so the keyboard only had a few dozen hours of actual use on it.

It feels like there are so few options for peripherals that have the features I want, but don't have gaudy LED light effects or an otherwise silly "gamer" aesthetic.

I've had three different G603's replaced for free because the scroll wheel starts behaving erratically after a while. No hassle though, and the latest one has lasted long enough that they seem to have (hopefully) fixed the issue. I've also had good luck with their mechanical keyboards.

I don't have anything nice to say about the state of their webcams though, especially in price/performance.
