Review on ๐Ÿ”‘ Logitech Craft Wireless Keyboard with Input Dial & Backlit Keys, Dark Grey & Aluminum - Advanced Creative Tool by Kenta Kajikawa แ Œ

Revainrating 4 out of 5

It was a reasonable purchase, I will order more.

For the first time in my life, I missed 2022 characters in the flaws text field, so I'll add it here: 17 days after the purchase, the "c", "=" and "4" keys (on the digital block) refused me. I wanted to change it, but amazon sent me to Logitech. Those, in turn, did everything beautifully, even surprised me very much. True, they did not have this particular model and they offered me to wait, but I decided that I could understand and make a concession by taking the MX Keys model, on which I am now typing this text.

Pros
  • Design, lighting, silence, large Enter and Shift (Left Shift is small, but somehow I don't care). The ability to quickly switch between several computers pleased me, but I couldnโ€™t make friends with the TV - the connection happened, but I couldnโ€™t control it. (Samsung TV)
Cons
  • 1. Despite the fact that it is positioned as a professional solution for programmers and writers, in my opinion it is not suitable for programmers. Maybe programmers use fewer hotkeys, but I don't understand the absence of the Pause button (not โ–บ, but Break/Pause) and why F is not divided into groups of 4, as a result I often press F1 instead of F2 and Esc instead of ~, it really freezes . And in general, I still often confuse the keys on it, but I use it for almost a month (every day). It's good that at least with the Fn + Esc combination you can change the mode of operation of the function keys without opening the "Logitech Options" program. Oh yes, the program. 2. "Logitech Options" runs once after installation. If you want to run it again - reinstall it. 3. The wheel . it is there and it's good. It controls the volume. You don't need to use it for anything anymore because if you want to do this, you need to put the "Logitech Options" program into autoload, but I do not recommend doing this, since it does not start, and even if it becomes more stable over time, then it's still uncomfortable. In addition, at the time the program starts, the wheel makes a strange crunch, as if there is sand. A few words for Logitech: 1. Professionals usually have no problems with hotkeys, then why is the computer lock button above NumPad?!?! Are there professionals who do not know the Win + L combination?!?! 2. Slightly to the left is a key to call the context menu. It never came in handy for me, since I have a mouse, but even when I donโ€™t have one, I would rather press Shift + F10 than remember this key. 3. A little more to the left is the screenshot key, and so you got it later than Win + Shift + S in Windows 10, and since it appeared there earlier, it means that many are already used to it and will not use a separate key, so you in vain worked on these 4 keys on the NumPad. 4. Why are the F-keys not full width, why is F12 on "volume down", but there is no longer an F-key on "volume up"?!?!
