Review on πŸ’» Logitech MK470 Slim Wireless Keyboard and Mouse Combo - Low Profile Compact Layout, Ultra Quiet Operation, 2.4 GHz USB Receiver, Plug and Play Connectivity, Long Battery Life - Graphite by Andy Syla

Revainrating 4 out of 5

This compact productivity keyboard has design flaws.

This keyboard layout is the most functional and practical in my opinion. It's compact, but still has the standard "insert" and "delete" keys, which are must-have keys for many hotkey users. The keys are quiet and have a very satisfactory response quality. Unfortunately I have to deduct a few stars. This keyboard has two glaring design issues. Over time, the lack of a key lock indicator became very annoying. Third-party applications do not replace the presence of a display on the keyboard. The second noticeable design issue is that the keyboard angle is too high for flat keys. Because of this, it's all too easy to accidentally hit a key with your palm when reaching for the keys on the top two rows. The Ctrl key often fails for me. I added some bumpers under the front of the keyboard to reduce the angle, but I had to modify the keyboard to make it work properly. I would have preferred the back of the keyboard to be lowered rather than propping up the front. Logitech shouldn't force people to test keyboard designs in the real world. So sad to see the poor design of this Logitech keyboard.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Poorly thought out
