Solaar als Linux-Alternative zu Logitech G Hub

Aktualisiert am

Unser Fazit

Solaar is a decent Linux replacement for basic Logitech gear management, but it falls short of the full feature set of Logitech G Hub. It works well for users who only need device pairing, battery monitoring, and simple button or scroll adjustments on keyboards, mice, and trackpads. Advanced users wanting macro recording, detailed DPI profiles, RGB lighting control, or firmware updates will find Solaar lacking and may need to stick with G Hub on Windows or look for other tools.

Was gleich funktioniert

  • Both manage Logitech peripherals and support wireless (Lightspeed, Nano) and Bluetooth connections
  • Both provide a GUI that shows connected devices and basic status
  • Both allow pairing/unpairing of devices
  • Both offer battery level display for rechargeable devices
  • Both run natively on Linux (Solaar) and Windows/macOS (G Hub)

Was anders ist

  • Solaar does not support macro recording or playback, while G Hub does
  • RGB lighting control is absent in Solaar, G Hub offers full RGB customization
  • Firmware updates are only available in G Hub, Solaar cannot flash firmware
  • Solaar lacks detailed DPI and profile management; G Hub provides per‑profile DPI settings
  • Solaar does not export or import configuration files from G Hub; it only manages current device settings

Ihre Logitech G Hub-Dateien öffnen

Solaar cannot open or import Logitech G Hub configuration files (.lgh or similar). Users must manually reconfigure devices in Solaar or continue using G Hub on Windows for those settings. There is no known export function from G Hub that Solaar can read.
