Buy the XVX M98.
It does everything the G413 SE does and adds wireless freedom and fixable switches the Logitech simply cannot offer.

Five reasons
1. Cuts the cable, or keeps it, your call
The XVX M98 runs on Bluetooth 5.0, 2.4GHz, or USB-C, so it works with a gaming PC, a laptop, or a tablet without swapping cables. The G413 SE is wired only, so a clean desk or multi-device switching is off the table entirely.
2. Fix a dead switch yourself, no soldering
Hot-swap sockets on the M98 let you pull a worn or broken switch and pop a new one in within minutes. The G413 SE's switches are soldered to the board, so one bad switch means replacing the whole keyboard.
3. Weeks between charges, no cable clutter
An 8000mAh battery lets the M98 run for weeks even with the RGB lit, freeing your desk from a permanent USB cable. The G413 SE has no such option, it is tethered to your PC the whole time it works.
4. Feels more finished right out of the box
XVX pre-lubes its switches at the factory and the shine-through PBT caps light evenly under RGB. The G413 SE ships with stock switches and a single flat white backlight, so it feels less refined before you even type on it.
5. Yes, Logitech's the safer name. Buy it anyway.
Logitech's support network is real, but both boards have review complaints about wear and inconsistency, so the reliability gap is thinner than the brand name suggests. At nearly the same price, the M98 adds wireless freedom and swappable switches, and a dead switch is a five minute fix, not a warranty claim.
