Logitech Illuminated Keyboard K740

A simple rectangular wired keyboard with a sleek design and backlit keys so you can see which computer keys to press as you type. darkened room. I decided I needed a wired keyboard as wireless keyboards are more fragile in comparison and backlit wireless keyboards drain their rechargeable or removable batteries too quickly. So I went with wired, which requires minimal maintenance. And if you're looking for a keyboard with a variety of colors and an unusual body design that will appeal to the eyes and mind of gamers aged 10-17, this isn't the keyboard for you. All alphanumeric characters are backlit with white LEDs - look more professional, sleek (and IMO more appealing to practical adults) to keep the color scheme limited and consistent for backlit designs. The alphanumeric characters themselves are laser engraved for a more accurate appearance. All keys are low profile and have a responsive, light touch with near-muted tactile feedback for ergonomic fingerstrokes; They are an integral part of its discreet overall profile. Like many motorized backlit keyboards - don't get it wet - otherwise the keys just won't respond to a short circuit. (If this keyboard were waterproof, I'd give it all five stars.) The function keys on the top row are either software programmable or have preset functions activated with the same software. Even if you haven't used the software that came with your keyboard, Windows will still recognize it as a standard keyboard device and will work as soon as you plug it into a suitable USB port. A nice, clean, and quick feature is the manual button brightness and volume controls, and these four buttons are arranged in a single row in the top-right corner. After wearing out the first keyboard after a few years of use (I shorted out the backlights on some keys because I'd accidentally spilled drinks on them over the years), I decided this keyboard was good enough to buy the exact same thing Model. , again .and that's exactly what I did.
