A really necessary purchase, glad I found this product.

There is a Logitech Illuminated keyboard that has served faithfully for a long 8 years. But time goes by, and if it did not affect its technicalcomndition in any way, then the appearance suffered slightly. Soft-touch began to flake off. As a result, in the absence of alternative solutions, hecomnducted an experiment to remove the stand material that had become unusable. Result. - Watch the video ? v=ZhNeAXyZelA PS. After the experiment, I came across a used one in almost perfectcomndition…

Pros
  • Best keyboard in terms of ergonomics, typing comfort and design

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I can't stop being happy with the purchase, a very good deal!

The details are out! I collected all four (did not throw them away) and took them to the local Kulibin. I now have three of these keyboards, including the new one! Glad.

Pros
  • This is the best keyboard in almost 30 years of work. Stylish, quiet. No even apple'vskie Claudia can be compared. Working at night when a child (and wife) is sleeping nearby is ideal - she also glows)) (not a wife, a keyboard)
Cons
  • Fragile. The first - dropped. A few keys popped out. Put the hell back on yourself. The second - spilled beer. Burned out instantly. The third and fourth - the little son was picking out the keys. Back, again, do not put. Fifth - now, only wireless. The sixth, by the way, will be the same. I'm not a masochist - it's just really, well, a very convenient keyboard for work. Despite the obvious drawback - fragility.

Fits the description completely, very satisfying.

I first bought this Claudia in the year 2022, I don’t remember anymore. In 2022, it flooded heavily, tried to restore it, but it didn’t work out - water got inside the film. Bought a new one just like it. Excellent keyboard, has not lost any qualities over time.

Pros
  • Low profile, quiet buttons Buttons don't erase at all Nice backlight, 3 brightness modes
Cons
  • Short Shift on the left, but it's fixed. The "\" button can be rebinded to shift, there are instructions on the Internet. The F1-F12 buttons have only orange icons highlighted, and the inscriptions F1, F2, etc. - No. For gamers, I do not recommend it, since you cannot simultaneously press W + Shift + Space. If you rebind "\" to Shift, then with it you can .

Poor product, below average quality.

The keyboard is a vacuum cleaner, the keys attract dirt with terrible force, and when wiped with a cloth, they cling and break! Very delicate button fastenings - the thinnest plastic frames burst, and spare ones are nowhere to be found and do not fit from others! Flimsy design for the money!

The product is very low quality, not what you need at all.

If not for this departure, she would not have had a price. And now you have to look for something else, you don’t want to experiment a third time. Has pros: Slim, easy to use, ergonomic. I mostly work at night, the backlight is very important. Soft keystrokes, pleasant. Some cons: This is the second such keyboard in use, I took the same one, because I assumed that there was a marriage. Very flimsy keys that fly out from wiping with a cloth cannot be put back. The second part flew out after a…

The quality is at the highest level, be sure to try it.

I love this clave so much that when my button broke, I found the same bu clave, bought it, pulled out the broken button and put it on myself. Now there is one k740 for spare parts, the second is mine - fully working, which never ceases to please me!

Pros
  • scissor type (short button travel) adjustable backlight quiet multimedia keys light big Enter
Cons
  • Controversial, but: For 5 years, the mount at one button broke. hard to clean no usb hub

Not everything is so bad, the average purchase in quality.

KeyRemapper will help solve the problem of the shift, you can reprogram the slash next to the shift in a minute. To be able to control the player (instead of aimp, insert your own) except for windows media: edit the players.

Pros
  • functionality, lighting
Cons
  • soft touch coating is clogged with dust - it is difficult to wipe off. The elastic band from below alone turned out to be "not tenacious" and the keyboard constantly unfolds. Small shift.

Im amazed! It was definitely worth the money!

I have been using it for five years now and this is my best keyboard. I hit it completely mercilessly, I play active games, but signs of wear began to appear only now - for some reason, the 8 key is close to falling off, and not some WASD. Because of her hopelessly stuck to the scissor mechanism. The mechanical keyboard on Cherry MX Blue had to be sold - I could not get used to the key travel.

Pros
  • - Great key travel and overall tactile feel - Very quiet - Nice customizable backlight (white). - As practice has shown, quite a reliable key mechanism - Good looking
Cons
  • - The layout is not quite standard. The large Delete key was annoying only at first, I got used to it very quickly. But the narrow top row of function keys and the convex bottom row are pure design for the sake of design. Both are inconvenient. - Of course, the short left Shift infuriates, but it looks like nothing can be done about it, except to deal with reassignment. Some kind of bullet in their head sits on this topic. As a result, the left little finger hurts constantly. - There is, apparently, some slight initialization delay when turned on. Because of this, on some motherboards it is not possible to enter the BIOS. Connected for this another keyboard. - Dirt accumulates in the gap between the main unit and the palm rest, as well as inside the transparent edging. - If you extend the legs, it will slide on the table. - The color of 2022 characters and the Latin alphabet is the same.

Not worth your money at all. Its pros: Quiet, media buttons, short travel and scissor design. There is a simple backlight, which is also sometimes useful. In general - from the point of view of the desire for a thin keyboard - it is good. Cons: And this is where the problems begin. In games it is simply unrealistic to use it. The keyboard simply does not allow you to hold down several buttons at the same time, especially if there is a space or a shift plus something else among them. In…

Wonderful quality, one hundred percent satisfied!

I spilled half a mug of sweet coffee, immediately put it out of the usb. I thought kirdyk to her. Dried out, the keys began to creak and move badly. I don’t know how the people in it manage to break the keys, I removed ALL the keys with a thin flat screwdriver, snapping off 4 antennae on each key in turn, I didn’t break a single one. I washed the keys and rockers, the board itself is flexible, there are silicone caps on the buttons, I wiped everything with cotton swabs with soapy water. The…

Pros
  • Key travel is one of the best, if not perfect. Adjustable soft lighting. Strict design. Reliability.
Cons
  • Price. 2022 and English of the same color.

Comfortable. Just comfortable, good stuff. Plus, the multimedia part is also good, not a pile of house keys, but the use of standard ones with the Fn button, ala a laptop version. In my opinion, it justifies its price tag. Yes, it's not low, but it's worth it. For two years I have vacuumed it a couple of times, but wiped it a couple of times - everything is like new =)

Pros
  • quality! this is the first. The second is almost silent. Third - a very pleasant backlight - white, not bright, uniform. Small key travel, the keys are not small, pleasant.
Cons
  • It's more of a nitpick - the part that is under the space, black, easily soiled - that's all.

Unsatisfactory quality, I wont buy it anymore.

1. Markost (-2 stars) When unpacking the keyboard, I was very pleased with the appearance. However, after several hours of using the keyboard, disgusting marks are found on the part of the keyboard under the space bar (where the thumbs usually lie). Options like "wash your hands before use" will get you nowhere - it's the keyboard material, as the natural grease turns the keyboard into a shiny, dirty horror. Thus, you have to wipe the keyboard with a damp cloth several times a day. 2…

Pros
  • - Pleasant backlight (3 brightness modes) - Pressing with an acceptable click, but far from silent, as everyone writes - Good design - Build quality (does not consider material, see below)
Cons
  • - Terribly branded

After two weeks of use, the key flew off and the scissor mechanism mount broke. There is no service in 2022, they don’t repair it, you can’t find spare parts. Had I known, I would have bought a mechanical one. Worst keyboard I've ever had, but not cheap. With its pros: Beautiful, quiet, comfortable. The brightness of the backlight is very easy to adjust. Some cons: Flimsy. Key fell off after 2 weeks of use. It gets dirty very quickly, but you can’t clean it, because. while the keys fly off…

Matches the description completely, very satisfied.

Has pros: 1 Quiet (when playing at night in a 1-room apartment!) 2 Backlight (adjustable). 3 soft buttons (pressing does not require force) 4 Sits firmly on the table Has some cons: For 9 months of flight - has not yet revealed, although I play all the time

I've been using it for 4 or 5 years, I don't remember. If I'm too lazy to change the wire, then I'll buy the same one. : I repaired the wire with a soldering iron, I will use it for another 5 years. Its pros: Adjustable backlighting, embossed keys (in contrast to an absolutely flat a la Apple), quiet and elastic key travel. Everything is done extremely aesthetically and without pathos. Got cons: The wire at the base frayed, apparently, and became the reason for the shutdown. Left Alt and…

A good quality product, I rate this purchase perfectly.

The listed disadvantages are rather wishes for improvement, even at the cost of releasing a new keyboard, but for the same money))) I worked on it for a day and got used to the dimension, although it still seems too small. And pressing after 10 hours of work became more audible. But it's still a great clave. Got pros: Virtually silent, three-stage illumination from weak to strong. Plastic is like on my smarts - soft touch, spots are almost invisible, a pleasant velvety feeling. Very…

A great option for this money, I definitely recommend it!

It worked perfectly for 5 years, it didn’t stick, it held tightly in place (the elastic bands all held out), well, as always with closed claves, it collected dirt, but everything was decided by vacuuming, etc. The main thing: the keys never stuck, a pleasant soft move, sooooo quiet work worked well and clearly. True, it is quite overall - if the place in the workplace is not critical - take it. For 5 years I have erased the active buttons on it to the holes in the coating, and now I need to…

Pros
  • nice backlight, smooth key travel
Cons
  • takes up a lot of space
