    Nothing like a review that provides nothing more that a picture, no functionality or connectivity just out of the box and here it is.

    Nice review, only thing is that your old one is the K400r not K400.

    I own a k400 plus, and from personal experience, I would recommend turning off the keyboard when not in use. (comment written on my k400 plus)

  • @Trusteft

    I find it funny, every single point for which you prefer the Plus model is the same which makes me want to prefer the regular lol.
    Thanks for the video.

  • @strawberryyogurt0
    @strawberryyogurt0 Před 4 lety +1

    Original k400 or the k400r is better in my opinion. It’s strictly because of the split up/down arrows on the yellow plus keyboard. I kept hitting the right shift key while scrolling pages. Return to Amazon and bought two of the k400 locally. This was several years ago. Still loving the k400/r.

    Thanks for the review. I love the K400 and prefer the colouring, but they seem to be hard to find now, whereas the k400 plus keeps going on sale, so wanted to see the differences.
    Kinda regret not buying more k400s before, figured they'd never go away as they were so loved universally.
    Guess the plus isn't a bad keyboard though.

    I'm still using the original batteries on my K400 Plus 2 years later and it's still going. Battery life is amazing. I thought i'd have to change em all the time.

  • @ricardocalderon9823
    @ricardocalderon9823 Před 4 lety +1

    k400 plus is a really nice keyboard. I just picked one up for $30. My only complaint is also the design. Looks like it was meant for an IBM computer in the 90s

      I'm going to get the old one because the direction keys are full size. I code and I use them allot for navigating my docs. Only need one full size shift key anyway.

  • @DoctorRevers
    @DoctorRevers Před 5 lety

    agree the design is not as nice. not a fan of the yellow or the little directional keys which i use to page up and down. Typing on one now. Overall it is good. Apparently has a better battery life which is why i will likely keep it. otherwise, not a fan of the changes. Lastly, the texture of the touchpad is not smooth enough imo.

    My k400 keeps lagging recently.
    The wireless signal seems to drop very easily, this wasn't the case when i first bought it.
    Is the k400 plus more reliable in its wireless connection?

    I see the plus has volume control and mute. Can these buttons be used or programed to used with a PC media application?
    I could not find any information from the user manual specifying connectivity with a PC or TV.

  • @onehappynegro
    @onehappynegro Před 6 lety

    this goes for the old and new key interface. since its not following standard layouts you will struggle and press wrong keys every now and then. especially if you use normal standard half of the time. i'm not sure why they (miss)align keys just because its smaller. just copy laptop keys for gods sake. no need to have +50 odd people in designing it when you're doing it wrong. i have one microsoft keyboard which just have the keys as ordinary laptop no touchpad but other than that its 100% okay to write on it. you get the keys that you want.

    Looks like that keyboard has an inch plus of plastic above the keys to support that little yellow button, and a wealth of space under the track pad where said little yellow button could live...

    • @tedfort1698
      @tedfort1698 Před 8 lety +1

      the yellow button is an alternative left click for the mouse for when you're holding it. so it wouldn't make sense to put it near the trackpad.

      Ctrl +Fn+print, copies the desktop to the clipboard. Ctr+Insert, if insert is called by the Fn, the combination becomes Ctrl+Fn+Insert for COPY, Shift instead for Ctrl for PASTE.

      I have the k400r and I have my computer hooked up to 2 tvs. One is in the leaving room with the laptop and on is on the other side of the wall in my bedroom. So at night when I'm in bed I am about 15 feet away from the computer and there is a wall in between and works great. Every now and then I do get some lag but then it goes away.
      Also its not a Bluetooth.

  • @sdfgsdfg9549

    i wish these keyboards or ALL keyboards have 2 or 3 button PC off buttons instead of just one. How many times have you accidentally pressed it and lost your work?
    And some of them even have the PC off button next to the calculator button. No fun re-doing your accounting calculations late at night when you miss press it.

    The plus model is a great device. Good range, fantastic battery life, and the feel is pretty much as good as a Chromebook or avg laptop, but is far lighter. Keyboard and touchpad operate smoothly. So nice, my ex grabbed it on her way out the door!! 🤣

      @strawberryyogurt0 Před 7 lety

      +PeterMacPL ... K400r has the ability to scroll sites (leftwith two fingers on the touchpad, a much better option. Unless you're holding the keyboard up the in air, I don't see a need to use the FN key to scroll websites. And if you want to scroll websites with one finger, simply use the up/down/left/right arrow keys. I've decided to return my k400plus keyboard back to amazon because I like the k400r much better. Hate the much smaller up/down key on the k400plus.

    The mousepad sucks. Because all you need do is touch it and you will select any link your cursor is on, I defy you to figure out how to use the pad without actually, initially touching it isolation when it's dumb and stupid it made me throw my keyboard in the trash as totally unusable. Shame on Logitech their reputation is well-earned but stupid things like no print screen and the touchpad that's damn near impossible to use without going crazy is gonna cost them big time.
    If you want to use the mouse function telling me do it without touching the pad which initiates A mouse click. Epic stupid.
    Probably the obvious and most frustrating thing for me is I've searched all morning and I can't find one link that tells me how to print screen, like every other keyboard on earth, to put it into my clipboard that I might call it into paint and save it as the file I decide. Everybody who has a CZcams account that reviews his keyboard fails to notice this horrendous feature loss.
