"The Shine 2 has full backlighting with various lighting modes and brightness while the G2 Pro just has the basic mod backlighting (caps/scroll/number lock) and WASD keys. Iirc, the G2 Pro also comes with PBT keycaps while the Shine 2 has standard backlit ABS caps (still higher quality than pretty much any other ABS backlilt cap set out there atm)."
