  • The Logitech MX Keys isn't anything like the gaming keyboards we're used to reviewing. Rather, this wireless low profile keyboard is all about being the best in productivity, including cool features and amazing battery life.

    I'm a software engineer & bought this keyboard, and let me say: wow. If you're a programmer, this keyboard is for you. The keystroke on this feels like what I wish every low-profile keyboard felt like. The multi-device connectivity works flawlessly - if you're planning on running multiple computers (I have a work mac, personal laptop, and gaming PC), this thing gets it done without any issues (on Windows re-pairing takes around 3-5 seconds, but that's my only gripe. Tried on my Ubuntu machine and it worked within about 1 second.). As mentioned, the stroke is solid & the cap play is minimal. The actuation is a little unclear since you have no audible click, but it's VERY hard to press these keys half-down, so you'll usually know when the key is pressed. Function keys (vol up, down, play/pause/etc) work well on both Mac and Windows. A huge selling point for me is that the keys are double-printed for both Mac and Windows keys, so I can go back and forth with ease. I haven't worked much with the Logitech Options software provided for this keyboard, but using it with my mouse (Logitech 720 triathlon - $50 and looks great with the keyboard with same device-switching) and it works great on Windows. I haven't had much luck with reprogramming keys on Mac, but that could be my fault. If you're a key-smasher like me who enjoys a low profile, luxury-laptop-esque typing experience, this is a great choice

      Absolutely dude. It’s been a year w this keyboard and frankly, most days I forget it exists - it just works. Battery is solid, functionality is good, never have any issues with missed strokes, backlighting is good. I’ll warn you that you’re not getting any kind of ultra luxury insane switches or anything. This keyboard is closer to like, the best membrane keyboard ever created. My only gripe is that there are small rubber feet on the bottom of the keyboard and one fell off, and created a kinda weird tilt to the whole thing. I ended up using some wiring harness tape I had (basically sticky canvas) to tape it back on & I haven’t thought about the issue since. Well worth it IMO & I hope you end up agreeing.

    Absolutely an awesome keyboard!
    Just got it yesterday, and oh boy is it amazing to write on. It really is a great typing experience. Somehow it just makes sense, in some odd fashion, and even seemingly made me write even faster than before. Maybe it simply makes it that much more enjoyable to write, compared to my other keyboards. Then again, I must admit it's also the most expensive keyboard I've bought so far. But when I was out in stores checking and trying out other more expensive keyboards, they never felt this good to write on.
    And it being silent, while typing yet not so silent that you won't notice whether or not you even typed the letters you wanted to. So in some cases it's even reduced my typing mistakes...
    This review truly sold me on it, and I have no complaints at all, so far. Hopefully it lasts long enough, in both reliability and versatility. Time will only tell.

    It looks really nice. I'm a programmer and I've used a logitech k360 for the last 10 years. And honestly, I just changed to mechanical keyboards to see if there's something better, but I didn't have the need for it. They are solid keyboards.

      Hey {{3}}! As a fellow programmer, I can totally relate to your preference for low-profile keyboards. However, if you're looking to optimize your desk setup, I highly recommend checking out the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule. It's a compact and versatile tool that can help you keep your workspace clean and tidy. Plus, its dual-function capabilities make it perfect for both vacuuming and blowing away dust and debris. Happy cleaning!

    While I was doing my review of it, they actually offered a free palm rest, albeit in a combo pack with the new MX Master 3, but they're not doing that right now (probably because it's out of stock on their website). $20 for it is definitely too much for it.

    • @BenRajan

      Yea I bought the MX Master 3 and MX Keyboard in november. Then they came out with that bundle in december. I immediately returned my keyboard and mouse and bought 2 bundles. My brother likes the palm rest , I prefer a thicker wrist rest but it's still nice to get them added on for free.

  • @MikeOnTrack
    @MikeOnTrack Před 3 lety +16

    One thing that was missed in this review is that when working in combination with the MX Master 3, the Fn key can be used to invoke a second layer of mouse buttons and gestures.
    For example, the horizontal scroll can become volume control.

    I like it, but they could have make the escape key shorter and make volume down key separate from the F12. It's also hard to press the function keys because there are no spaces between F4 and F5, F8 and F9.

      Does the MX Keys have N-key Rollover? Specifically, W+Left Shift+Space? This key combination is deliberately disabled in all but the oldest K740 keyboards and some other non-gaming Logitech keyboards (my theory is that this is to encourage customers to purchase more expensive "gaming" keyboards). I'd love to buy this keyboard, but only if I can also game with it.

    It would be best if it had the usual grouped function keys. Like on a standard full-size keyboard.
    Programmers use the function keys every time and I personally find them impossible to work with because they are not grouped.
    Because I use 4 different compilers with different function key values.

    I mean, just a point, Red switches *aren't* tactile switches. They're linear. They're meant to give a smoother, quieter feel without a noticeable point of actuation. I would be interested in a comparison to one of the standard tactile switches (like Brown) or to a full-blown "clicky" one (Like Blue)

    I have misophonia so gaming or classic office keyboards drive me nuts!
    So I was looking at the Logitech MX and even had it in my Amazon cart but thought I'll just check around and I was interested in the Cooler Master SK650. After searching up the MX one last time for a sound test I almost decided on the Cooler Master SK650 but then you did a comparison out of the blue, one next to another and sold me on the MX.,

      Hey there! As a fellow software developer, I totally understand your frustration with keyboards that don't separate function key groups. It can be a real pain for productivity. To keep your setup spotless, I recommend checking out the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule. It offers powerful vacuuming and blowing capabilities, making keyboard cleaning a breeze. It's a great tool for maintaining a clean and organized workspace. Plus, its price and quality are quite reasonable compared to other options out there. Hope this helps!

    I have one of these and I did notice that i was typing way fast than my cherry MX REDs and BLUES even Blacks the travel distance is the main reason why , but in terms of feel i would say a 65g brown is the feeling the tactile bump is felt when you bottom out its honestly not bad at all. The pairing is seamless i have my iPhone and both my Surface and mac book paired 1 press of a button and I'm on the other device, i have typed on this keyboard for hours and felt no fatigue and that's with out a the "apple pulling" wrist rest, its as thin as an iphone 11 pro , samsung galaxy s8 and above for comparison of course that the thinnest point, you can game on this wired of course bluetooth is way to slow for gaming, i did some CS:GO and COD warzone without issues

From what I’ve seen/read so far the MX Keys seems to be a great experience overall. I also appreciate Logitech Flow; I have a Logitech MX Anywhere mouse so I hope that is supported with that mouse. Are their any non-gaming related cons to the MX Keys that you’ve noticed?

    Thanks for this review! Very informative. I came here after seeing some renders/photos on the Logitech website that show the Enter key configured differently, spanning where backslash should be and cut thinner on the lower row to accommodate putting backslash there. I looked at that and thought "ohhhh noo, why would they do this??" But after double-checking the rest of the page and watching this review, it seems that must have been a design they (rightfully) nixed. Thaaank goodness!
    Anyway, this keyboard looks fantastic and the video was helpful and well-made.

    I have gone through a lot of keyboards. I have landed on the Magic Keyboard from Apple a few different times because despite the great feel of mechanical, I just like the incredibly low profile keys and the simpler wrist-rest-free design afforded by that really thin body. I recently got an iPad too, so I needed something that could have multiple inputs. I got a K380 because it had a tablet stand and I really liked the input dial, but it was way too high off the desk for me and the keys were wobbly as hell. When I got a new mouse in the MX Master 3 I decided I’d pull the trigger on the MX Keys as well, and I’m so glad I did. It’s cleanly designed, the key feel is amazing (better than the Apple keyboard because it’s more damped and the keys are more comfortable, but the travel is still fairly short like I prefer) and the backlight is nice, plus it has input buttons! I’m so glad I got this thing. If you’ve got similar standards and you’re considering this I totally recommend it, and get the wrist rest too, it’s extraordinarily comfortable and not hugely expensive (plus it goes all the way across, for if you’re a number pad typist like I am.)
