Review on Logitech Easy‑Switch Wireless Bluetooth Keyboard by Wiktor Wojciechowski ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The product is okay, it's not a waste of money!

The entire alphanumeric keyboard block is identical to that of the Apple Wireless Keyboard, unfortunately, even in terms of the nasty L-shaped "Enter", but you don't have to relearn. The difference lies in the block of function keys, and it is not due to “curvature” or “do it your own way”, but purely practicalcomnsiderations. The changes boil down to three things: the first three keys are responsible for quick switching between bluetooth devices, added brightnesscomntrol for the keyboard backlight, and removed the previous/next track buttons. Actually, these differences tilted the scales towards Logitech: now I cancomnnect the keyboard not only to the Mac, but to the iPad and Windows (sometimes I have to launch it to play), and switching between devices is carried out instantly by a short press of one button. Moreover, given thecommpact size and flat shape, the keyboard, if desired, you can take with you. The second point is the backlighting of the keys, whatever one may say, but even during the day it improves the readability of the characters, let alone at night. Although I try to type blindly, sometimes I glance at the keyboard out of habit. Of the minuses, I note that the adjustment does not work on the pressed key, i. E. to get the maximum level you have to click 4 times. What else I want to add, the keys have a softer and quieter stroke than its reference from Apple, the battery lasts, it feels like, about a month. In terms of software, there is nothing special here -comntrol is carried out through its own pref-panel in the settings, and the list of options is minimal: use F1-F13 as standard function keys, and turn off HUD notifications about Caps Lock, brightness and low battery. By the way, the battery charge is not displayed in the Status Bar. You can read more in the review Or video ? v=RCajZifBexc
